		<description>it's sad isn't it..how a parent can walk away from a child. they don't seem to understand that just because your relationship is over, doesn't mean the relationship with the child ends too!</description>

		<description>Hi Pam - your bedroom sounds beautiful - isn't it amazing how we leave ourselves out of having a nice room.  I did the same as you a few years ago and love my room.  The kids know that they have to be careful on mommy's nice quilt :)

Your OLD ME stuff - if you love it keep it and if you don't get rid of it.  Not that you have time - but maybe consider a small scrapbook -take pictures of the stuff and get rid of the stuff and keep the memories.  I am sure among the bad memories are some great ones too.
