Life Magazines – The Forties

Life Magazine - July 19, 1943. Air force pilot, female on the cover next to plane 368

July 19, 1943

We stumbled on these Life Magazines from 1943. There were about ten of them. All of them celebrated women, Black veterans, patriotism and the accomplishments of people for whom the odds were against. If only the celebration of what truly makes this country great, which is diversity, rich and deep history of different cultures and genders coming together, as well as our government supporting that excellence — if only it continued in earnest, our current situation would be something contained only in horror/fiction movies and books, instead of reality. #Resist

This family relocated to Columbia County from Colorado and found us to help them settle in.

Team Call Sheilah! dove right in.

We unpacked 30 dish barrel boxes, 7 wardrobe boxes, 40 art boxes, 12 crated pieces of art, multiple book boxes, and other assorted sizes.

Then we hauled off ALL of the boxes and packing debris - 4 vans full!

Next week, we are assembling metro shelving and removing the remaining packing detritus.

And then we just wait for the house warming party!

Last week, I posted about the slime collection, and the Queerness of it all. (Yes, this slime collection was Queer). But someone also commented about #GenerationalClutter. I`ve been pondering that. Here is installment #2 of that. This, like the slime, was a first and also #QueerAF.

No branding needed!

We love seeing these notes.

Even if this lovely woman spelled my name wrong, the placement of the note, in the middle of her desk above the lap top and monitor was an indicator, and she confirmed, that we were an integral part of the process.

(We had already packed the red pens or I would have made the edit.) 🖊

There are major differences between what generations will accumulate over time.

Typically our older clients collect water bottles, recyclable shopping bags, scrabble games, books on downsizing and decluttering, med containers, and a lot of moisturizer.

These folks, in their 20s, lean into their own neurospiciness by having plenty of different kinds of Slime on hand. Some people need to keep their hands busy, which can help them with focus. Slime is a stress relieving tool and gives a much needed break from reality. We all need that sometimes, especially today.

This is for sure the first time we wrote "Slime and other misc" as an identifier on a packed box.
