Yesterday, I finally finished going through all of the boxes (25+) I'd stored in my parents' attic. The goal, you might recall, was to find my high school diploma. I found lots of cool and fun stuff, a TON of boring, academic stuff but alas, afer opening and sorting through the very last box, I had not found the diploma. Boo!
Honestly, how could I have saved every single notebook I used in high school and college but not something as significant as my diploma? DH mentioned a bin (it had been on a closet shelf in my old BR) he'd seen. 3, 2, 1 ... and Voila!
We found a treasure trove! Inside the bin, not only did I find my high school diploma but also my grade school diploma. There were my first two hats from Disneyland (embroidered with my name, of course), right beside a box marked "Lisa's Christening gown" ... underneath that, more precious keepsakes. Yippee!
