shadows of echoes of memories of songs

Not all clothes are kept as clothes, some are kept as souvenirs. I have similarly sentimental things that I can't bear to throw even though they're unwearable; trying to keep it to a minimum though (I currently have 3 suitcases full of things I don't really wear but can't bear to get rid of, so I am clearly failing at keeping-to-a-minimum, but I do whittle them occasionally).

Interesting about the baby-chair thingies -- thank you! We have actually also been offered a playpen by brother-in-law, though goodness knows where it'll go... at this rate the baby's stuff will take up the whole house, & addedentry and I will have to move into the shed! :-}
