(Blogger's layout features are primitive in the extreme. I was able to get two images in a row yesterday, but accidentally, and can't figure out how to do it today. Plus, there's no white space next to this image, but there is next to the one below. Anyone out there have any ideas?)
My aunt Nita died in 1997. She died in Vermont while my
mother, her sister, was flying to be with her from Florida. My sister and I
arrived the next day. After we comforted each other, we set to work dividing up
Aunt Nita’s belongings. Miraculously, we didn’t argue over any of her jewelry,
our tastes being so different.
I wanted this jewelry case, but was afraid my sister would
want it, too. But still, I was lucky. She had her own way of storing her
necklaces. So I now have the case.
Necklaces on one side; rings, bracelets, and other
adornments in the drawers. I love this case—and wish I knew where Nita found
it.
