I was going through some boxes the other day, in my effort to continue decluttering, and the boxes I was going through were from my aunt’s apartment that we boxed up after she passed away. Its hard to get rid of things that you identify with someone so much. I will probably hang on to her magnifiers — she was legally blind, but not in the “only seeing darkness” sense. She could read with a magnifying glass, or with a special computer system that she had, but to be able to read pill bottle or insulin syringes, that print was way to small and out of her realm of being able to read it. I know part of decluttering is getting rid of things you don’t use; but those simple pieces of glass were so much a part of her … well, I think I will hang on to them for awhile longer.
