Had to share these photos with you - I promise I did not stage this! I opened up this bin the other day and the article, "Getting Organized" was on top! The next photo is a zoomed out shot of the same bin to emphasize the hilarity of the moment!
The next photo is a shot of one of the thousands of folders that Peggy had...another one of her favorite sorting methods (along with bins, 3-ring binders, clear sheet protectors, cardboard magazine boxes, and plastic over-the-door shoe organizers). Other folder titles that we have come across in the past few days:
Why Women are Late
Marijuana
Letter from God (Funny)
Guest Owls
Chicken Cake
We are having so much fun sorting through all of her paperwork...everything is such a reminder of how fun, wacky, and hilarious she was! She saved everything because she LOVED everything! Everything she read or came across was a potential painting, party, gift, or project...she saved things for herself, for her friends, for her family, for her students, for strangers...she was a CRAZY LOVABLE MESS and that is why we miss her...and why we are truly enjoying this process as overwhelming as it is...
Oh my god this is too much!!! So hilarious! I love it! "chicken cake"?????!!! Thank you Kimi for these wonderful snapshots of who Peggy was, it means so much to me.
