Challenge Day 60

60. Handle With Care: Write about a very fragile or delicate object.

When my maternal grandmother died, the extended family was aggressive about claiming her items. I think at the time, I got a dress and an old pair of her reading glasses. My mom got her bed and dresser which were used in her home until her death when I then inherited them. I set up the bed and dresser in the guest bedroom which then became my daughter’s room around mid-high school.

When daughter moved out, she took the dresser and just returned it to me a few months ago. Son has the bed. There is no one left in the family who wants the items and I have no room for them. I need to find a dealer and donate these delicate but beloved pieces.
