I apologize in advance. My entire life seems to be revolving around the great Math 2014 purge. I'm having trouble deciding about getting rid of certain things and I need opinions (or a kick in the rear).
1. My childhood dollhouse. It is broken and has sat at the top of the girls' closet for their entire childhoods. My dad built the bottom level, so I cling to it for that reason alone. It was mine. I loved it. I played with my dollhouse in some form or the other up until high school. I was holding onto it for my daughters but because it's broken, they never got to play with it. My childhood is over. They aren't using it. Toss or keep?
2. My backpack and books from the 3rd grade. I went to the german elementary school and had a real leather bag and books from the school as well as the notebooks that I wrote in in my own little 3rd grade hand. The leather bag was partially chewed by my beagle 30 years ago. It is degrading and falling apart inside and out. The books all smell musty. But that was my special year. Keep or toss?
3. German christmas pyramids that I bought when I was living in Germany. Not the best quality and broken/needing to be glued. With that collection, old dollar store nutcrackers. It was all I could afford during my exchange year. They remind me of that wonderful time in my life...but they are sitting in a rubbermaid bin in the garage and aren't nice enough to display.
