That's me on so many of these things of moms. We couldn't even throw out her makeup when we first started to. Em used to play in there with mom while she put on her face. The littlest things end up with meaning.

Ok, I am a freak...haven't had children, but had a dog for 12 years...I carry her ashes and her toys around with me from country to country...and her blanket too...she was my baby...

So I know exactly what you mean..

I personally think souvenirs are necessary, not extraneous..the are a record of our lives...but I'm quite a sentimental person (shhhhhh....don't tell anyone)...I have been collecting sourvenirs as I have traveled, and pack them along with me...no room for other extraneous stuff, but room for the souviners...

but i know you have them in your storage, you just go down there to clean the dust...remember you fall couple of weeks ago?

I have them on the shelves in the apartment: Arabic and Turkish coffee pots, tea and coffee sets, vases, rugs haning on the walls, etc., etc. What I put in the basement was my duffel bags that I carry all this stuff around in when I move....

And my other luggage, the stuff I keep of my dogs, except her ashes which are also on a shelf in the apartment, empty boxes go in the basement...stuff like that....the souviners are about all I have actually, so they are all around me

Don't know why either...is it the ashes? I have wonderful things from my travels and as traveling is the focus of my life, I am sourrounded by those things....otherwise I'm not attached to material things...

You should be able to pick you up a new keyboard about anywheres. Look in Craigs list in your town or area, might find someone selling used computer parts, cheap!
