James had a very small trailer, there wasn't any need to decide what came and what stayed. He just packed up his ford tarus, and drove it all down here to me, and then I went up with my parents an picked the rest up myself. He did tease me for a while that he was going to bring the great big huge broken recliner that stunk from being in a smokers tiny little trailer before donated to us, and I was like NO! NO ROOM! an he'd joke YES, YES ROOM> Now when he moved stuff from his moms place to his little trailer, pure nessessity chose what came and what stayed. Now when we both move from here to our new place, it's mostly going to be me who needs to decide what goes and what stays behind to be donated, since I have the biggest pile of stuff. I've started the thinning the heard process already by getting rid of tons of clothing and chachkis that I no longer want, including a promdress, and a giant slip that went with it. quote: ORIGINAL: MladyHathor *"they ARE a great toy!"...* I thought this might be a fun post for a rainy Sunday morning---Many of us in this life are seeking a LTR--which can mean cohabiting at some point---so we are single with independent lives, worlds, stuff etc--lots of us are older, meaning homes, assets, stuff and more stuff---once you decided to meld into a single D/s unit---what are some of the funny and not so funny moments when decisions were made for what came, what saw the trash pile and how your stuff, toys and physical assets got morphed into "ours"?

Crafters unite! LOL I have a whole spare bedroom dedicated to crafting, an it's so full and overflowing I can't use any inch of it, and I've poured out onto theporch taken over it and I've got tons of storage taken up wth craft stuff. quote: ORIGINAL: kiwisub12 quote: ORIGINAL: MsStarlett > I have a sewing room for all my craft stuff - and it is full!

Unfortunately I gave to friends or charities most of my things when I moved in with my ex. we then had a garage sale to reduce even more when moving interstate. Sadly we broke up within days and I found myself with only my tax return of $3000.00 and 10 square meters consisting of boxes of books, kitchenware and sewing gear and a dining table and desk, bookcase and washing machine. It was hard starting again with little money and I am still without some furniture I need, but...sometimes it is a small price to pay. Although I soo miss the leadlight kitchen dresser and chest of drawers/wardrobe. It was a great life lesson though, as once I believed everything I had was necessary to living, now I know it's not.

"She who dies with the most fabric WINS!" YES! i'm so with you there. in the getting rid of thing, my ex and i bought stacks of asterix and obelix comics 20+years ago. probably had nearly the whole set. i don't think he realised i still had them, and when a friend from the states was depressed, i sent him a dozen. there's still 20 more to go. he ADORES me now, and i giggle everytime i think that the ex, if he knew, would have kittens. it's good to be an evil angel!

Dnomyar -> RE: I am Not Selling My Pink Flamingos! (4/21/2008 8:07:23 AM)
camille. I aslo have wild peacocks around the house. Talk about noisy. Between them and the dammed cranes in the morning. Of course they are joined by the geese who are mating and defending their turf. It dose'nt get any better at night with the million or so frogs the owls and the coyotes. Who is the idiot who said they wanted to move out in the country for the quiet.

OmegaG -> RE: I am Not Selling My Pink Flamingos! (4/21/2008 8:17:03 AM)
FR We are not combining yet, but I am moving closer to him. I also have a craft fetish and I've brutally gone through my yarns (filled my mother's car turnk up twice plus 2 garbage bags of yarn), I gave away a bag of shoes to the homeless shelter as well as 5 bags of clothes. I still feel that the move is going to be daunting. And recently my 19 year old "moved out" leaving me with a room full of her stuff with no idea what to do with it.

Who is the idiot who said they wanted to move out in the country for the quiet. I once worked in a nursing home in south Florida, which had peacocks roaming around - and flying occasionally. The first time I heard one, I thought one of the patients was outside and in trouble. Those birds sound just like an elderly person calling for help. The peahens, on the other hand, sound like tricycle horns. There's a reason they call it "stuff." You stuff your space with it. pip, remembering those peacocks coming in for a landing

The next time it rains I'm going to huddle under an umbrella with a tape recorder, I want the frogs singing taped just in case I move somewhere that has no froggies (which is highly likely).I named one of the peacocks Percy, when he does his hollering I do it right back at him so we sort of talk to each other. Noisy yup, obnoxious when they roost on my car yup, but they are so incredibly beautiful! For birds that is.

All this talk of flamingoes reminds me of The Great Flamingo Caper of 1988 (I'm fuzzy on the year, but I think that was it). Some friends had a flamingo in their front yard, ONLY because it pissed off the neighbors. Other than that item, their yard was worthy of a magazine spread. When the woman's birthday rolled around, we "kidnapped" the flamingo and took polaroids of it in various situations. She got the first picture of the flamingo with a blindfold on, holding a ransom note that said, "Mommy help me!". We dropped off pics and ransom notes at various times over a week or so. We had to let her husband in on it, because we needed his help. On a Saturday night, she had to go to a phone booth and wait for a call (small town, you could actually call payphones there). The guy making the call to her was around the corner at another phone booth, in a hat and raincoat getup (think bad detective movie). We sent her to about 6 phone booths around this small town, each time telling her where to go for the next call (and at each stop, we made sure she saw at least one person in a raincoat and hat). It ended at a restaurant, and she walked in to about 15 or so of us sitting at a big table, and we were all wearing the bad detective raincoat and hat. The flamingo was in a chair at the head of the table, wearing his own raincoat and hat (we found them at a doll shop). Cali
