OK, the short version of the story.
Once I moved out of my parents' house, I left my Joes there for safe
keeping. I didn't have room in the apartment, and figured everything
would be safe there. What I didn't figure on was...
An older, bitter sister who (once I moved out) proceeded to throw out
anything I didn't take with me that she didn't think I would check on.
Old board games got heaved, some older s****ts equipment... stuff I
would neither mind nor miss.
What she didn't figure on was me coming back for my "toys" once we
bought the house and had room. Needless to say, this caused quite a
problem. Along with some other "events" over the past decade
(including both my parents passing away), my sister has been pretty
much kicked out of our extended family (cousins, aunts, etc.). Not a
one can stand the sight of her for a whole lot of reasons. Nobody has
spoken to her since 2003 (when my Dad passed).
Anyway, that's the story of how it all got tossed. Lots more details,
but I won't bore you guys any more than I already have.
Regards,
Bill H.
