I’m still working on clearing out the ‘The Croft’, but before I go on,
let me tell you the reason for the room’s name. It’s all about Scotland and I
love Scotland. In fact, I often dream of living in a croft on the Scottish
coast. So, in ‘The Croft’ I keep books, maps and other trinkets about Scotland and the Scottish doll that my
grandmother brought me when I was a little girl. (My grandfather, Donald Ross, was
born in Scotland and emigrated from Glasgow at the turn of the last century.) And
then there is golf. Golf was also born in Scotland and St. Andrews is considered
the oldest golf course in existence. It’s even rumored that Mary Queen of Scot
played golf.
Yesterday I cleared out the
bureau and today I loaded my husband’s golf memorabilia on top, where it is
waiting for him to do his part. Yesterday he decided to give three bags of golf
balls, which were stashed away in the closet, to our grandson. Now, he has to
let go of some golf pictures, pencils and sitters. 
Today, along with loading the top of the bureau, I sorted and organized
the books. Alas, I only let go of one of them. It was the best I could do.
