OMG! I kinda feel better about MY situation now!  :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well don't feel bad Daniela, Tahra, my appartment, was looking kinda yours, plus the paintors and the carpenters walking around, jumping over boxes!  :lol: :lol: :lol: I decided to take part of it to my parent's until the remodel is done.
And of course I can't forget Luli,  the cat,  inspecting everything, stepping of fresh paint and living her paws all over and watching over every movement everyone made!!!!!!!!!
And on top of that, all my hair (I had plucked one by one so far, Im going nuts!)  8} 8} 8} 8} 8} 8}


So  :help: :help: :help: :help: :help: :help:

Since I moved last year, I only display my collection in my home office and in a bookshelf in the living room.

I display what I can and the rest is organized in plastic tubs. Bummed me out at first, but I soon realized that I could always have a rotation with the pieces that are on display. It keeps things moving and my display is renewed once in a while which makes me appreciated what I already have even more since it's not always in my face.

 What some may consider a overwhelming crisis, I see inspiration!  I don't have your "problem" yet.. but I look forward to being able to have a playmobil problem. I hope you are able to reach a happy place while keeping a positive outlook towards out little plastic friends.

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.
