This is what I kept repeating to myself as I reorganized my memorabilia file folder container this afternoon. There was plenty of tossing and plenty of reorganizing. Good to cross that project off the list.  |

Oh, I should clean up my files, then maybe I'd use them.
Good job!

I tell myself this whenever my mom, sister or sister-in-law ask if I happen to have a photo of any given family gathering, even if I have photos of their children's events as they don't take pictures.

I don't really keep other people's memories in that I have gotten better abut not keeping everything I have. But I still cant part with memorabilia like my grandmother's diploma and my father's childhood scrapbook and I want to find some way to keep those things somehow. I haven't figured out how just yet.
One thing that keeps things in my care is that I have had family and friends who lost everything in fires or disasters, and those who never had a single childhood photo or photo of relatives only to find out thankfully other people had pictures. It makes me hang onto things I probably could part with.

Good for you--reducing clutter and feeling freer in the process. I have a lot of pictures of my niece and nephew that I started sorting through last month. I scraped some but I'm giving a good sixpzed pile of them to my sister do do with whatb she will.

Since everyone in my family & my husband's family know I scrapbook, we have been deemed "the photographers" for all events. Then 10 minutes after getting home I am being asked when we will post the pics to Facebook. I've even had my niece send a certificate for her daughter "because I knew you wouldn't lose it". lol
