Mom’s Stuff

Written By: Shelly

Hello!

The next rounds, starting with round C, will be handled differently then the last two rounds.

I will send you a link to the web page with the pictures of the next group of items. It will be on www.ShellysSandbox.com under the “Mom” tab in the next day or so.

Mom doesn’t remember where many of the items are from, but the ones that were wedding gifts or belonged to a relative are marked if the source is known.

As before, if you gave the folks something that is pictured and would like it back, let me know and it will be taken off the picture list and placed in your box.

I would like you to send me a list of 25-30 items of your preference, listed from 1-30 in the order of your preference (with one being your most preferred item). You are welcome to let your kids see the webpage and let you know what they like. You can include their desired items on your list of 1-30 items you would like to try for.

All of our names will be drawn from a farm hat by my own personal Vanna White- i.e. Calvin! That will establish an order from 1-6.

The first name will receive their first preference, the second will receive their first preference from the items that are left, etc till all 6 siblings have received one item on the first round.

On the second round I will start with the second person so they will get their next preference from the items that are left and procede 2,3,4,5,6,1 until all have gotten an item.

The next round I will start with the third person, etc until I run out of items on your lists.

When done with your lists I will let you know what is still left of the glassware items so we can choose more if desired.

Don’t feel obligated to list and take items if you are not interested.

I think this will work fairly well.

Love to you all- Shelly

 The sorting of mom’s items has begun… a reminder of the process
1. Photos of a number of items have been taken with a number next to each item.I’ve tried to categorize them into some loose “groups” of like types but it is difficult. Some categories are “Kitchen Items” or “Nick-Nacks” for instance.
2. Over the next week you can look at them and show them to your children- you can email me what number item(s) you are interested in for you or your children.
3. If you gave mom & dad an item that you see and you would like it back, please tell us. You can have it back of course.
4. If you have especially high interest in a certain item for sentimental reasons, please tell us. You will have preference on that item if others are interested and it is not highly sentimental to them.
5. If more then one person is interested in the same item, then a drawing will be held for that item between interested people.
6. The items that go in your name will be placed in a box labeled for you to pick up at a later date.
7. The items that are not selected will go in boxes for a sale or for give away.
8. This will be repeated over several weeks until a number of the boxes of less significant things are cleared out and there is more space. At that time we will get together and do the larger and more significant items.
