You're writing my experience: slowly digging out my parents' belongings, both of them having spent their final days here with us. We're not moving yet, but planning to. I feel I need to apologize to Mom every time I toss out a scrap of paper with her handwriting on it. I'm working on an article too, something about grief and unwinding... Peace to you as you walk through this adjustment.
Thank you ... yes, it's a pain-full-process, but a cathartic one. Most of my dad's things were dealt with 10 years ago to make room for me and my things. Though there is plenty boxed up and unopened for 10 years that now go to storage. Mostly what I'm dealing with is 'my stuff' over the last 10 ... plenty of catharsis there too ...
