picking up bits and pieces

Mom's room is still intact except her bed (which was removed and replaced with a borrowed hospital bed when she was sick), and now the hospital bed has been returned. I was trying to pack some of her clothes but only managed to do a few, just couldn't do it all at one go, but l did nicely pack her wheelchair, walker and backrest.

Sitting there in her room looking around brought back alot of memories, this wardrobe was with her since she married my dad, and those days that was the only long mirror in our house so everytime after dressing up to go out, looking into this mirror is the final check, and this wardrobe come in much latter. The dressing table is where we put on our makeup because the mirror is big enough. This sewing machine is so much older, (l think is as old as me) mom used to sew for the whole family with the same kind of material using that sewing machine. Mom is fantastic, she has never been to a sewing school and yet she sew beautiful dresses for us, shirts for both my brothers and my dad.

What about those things inside her drawer, where should l start? Mom is very sentimental she kept quite alot of family photos, each and every drawers contain photo albums. She love taking it out every now and then to look at them, wish my other silbling inherite some of her sentimental gene, haha. Mom love to look pretty at all times, she had alot of beautiful dresses, but now.... not much left because most of her dresses were put in her coffin. Those are the few dresses left in her wardrobe, l m so reluctant to give them away.
