My late wife Velma started a journal in her early twenties and kept it going to her death. Tiny tiny writing, using a fountain pen. She built up a library of, I don’t know, seventy books? I have them; when I die, they’re going to her favorite niece.

oh i agree, Andrew -why would anyone else care in what order i got records or anything else; but i've tried to remember countless times. to me it represents a type of evolution in my life that i know the basic timeline of but i'd like the details.
i too made lots of lists as a child, but i stopped writing down the records by the time i was probably 13.

@DanielBlumin: Yeowtch! If it means anything, I managed to save some deep family photos—pre and post WWII—by in one case stealing a pile of them from a relative who had lost their mind. And another batch of photos was returned to me when another “stable” relative decided it was better to send them to me than getting them tossed in the trash.
