RE: 5 minute freewrite 2710 prompt drive off a cliff

in Freewriters7 days ago

I enjoy going to yard sales, but whenever I see something I might buy, I have to ask myself "Do I really need this? And do I have a place to put it?" Otherwise I would bring too much stuff home.

Sort:  

I need to do what you do. When my sisters sees old tea cups, she tries to steer me the other direction, I do not need, use, or have room for more, BUT!!!! I blame it on my Mom, she liked tea cups, and before she passed, she gave me hers.

My mother had quite a collection of teacups and saucers, too! My two sisters and a cousin and I each took a few after she died, and years later I bought several on ebay. I have them displayed on top of my kitchen cupboards, and I always keep 5 or 6 down where I can reach them, for daily use. I swap them every now and then.

Maybe our children will want them, I hate the thought of them being donated to a thrift store.
