Hmm I see box 9 + 10 on the second row...I can't see the numbers shown on the boxes above... I did scroll back and see your post about what is in the magical box #7. You are just too organized. Do you drive Donna crazy?

My super powers are holding onto junk for years and throwing it away a week before I need it.
An actual statement:
I did the same as Dave…I gave away my 1/18th Cast iron Ferrari collection to my grandchildren - they loved them! The Items only lasted a few weeks before they were destroyed as toys, but I was glad to give them as a genuinely enjoyed gift and reacquiring the space they were occupying.

We will be hitting #49 next month, so I think she's OK with it. As long as I don't organize her stuff. OMG, I'd love to take on the kitchen for starters.

Actually that was the kit I built. It's a great model. Take your time; its a keeper.

I'm continuing my downsizing. I selected 16 car books to put in our club's annual auction. Most were coffee table size and totalled 2,950 pages! Its a start. Proabably have 80 more books to go but I have to leave room in the MG for some refreshments at the auction.
