old photos

[redbird]

I have sorted through several envelopes of old photos, deciding what to keep. I stopped when the decisions started to seem difficult, and my hand started to hurt from flipping through dozens of prints. That was somewhere between eight and a dozen envelopes of prints, and this is just culling, not labeling, scanning, or putting in an album or picture frame.

I'm keeping some photos of people I know, and a bunch of travel photos, including from Hong Kong, Britain, and a trip to Multnomah Falls (Oregon) with my friend Alan. The travel photos include some pictures of me taken in Swansea and Cardiff.

I have many more envelopes of photos, which I hope to look through at some point, when I feel like doing more of this.

This is moving-related because one of the boxes we unpacked contained photos.

I am not comfortable with similar responsibilities that I am now shouldering.

Culling photos is somewhere on the list of things I keep telling myself I'll do eventually. I know it will stir things up for me, but I also expect to feel better after lightening the load.
