The guest room closet re-do

We’re remodeling the two upstairs bathrooms which has meant rearranging everything in the closets.  The guest room closet will now just hold out of season coats, the Christmas boxes, and some storage.  For the storage, I’ve purchased matching green boxes, the same color as the the guest bath walls.  Now, I’m repacking things into them.

Repacking the boxes of cards and letters saved over 50 years—now that’s a job.  I’ve done this before, and sent back to the writer, many letters.  But there are many notes and letters inside these cards.  For some reason I was writing little notes to my husband back in the 70s. I don't know the dates or situations (some sounded serious). I did find this written on the back of an envelope.

A young mother was trying to comfort her daughter when her pet kitten died, saying, "Remember, dear, Fluffy is up in heaven now with God." "But Mommy," the girl sobbed, "What in the world would God want with a dead cat?"

And yes, I'll be getting new hangers. After 52 years of homemaking, I deserve matching hangers.
