My tendency to clear away clutter is anti-sentimental. I tend to remove the unworn from my closets.
It’s a slightly brutal approach. I am delighted that I didn’t dispose of all my unused keepsakes so cavaliarly.

We were- I can’t remember why- at the Met store in Rockefeller Center. Browsing.
Somehow, Burt managed to sneak this purchase past me. When he gave me the heart later, for my birthday, I think, I was totally surprised.
I am so glad I hadn’t purged this item from my jewelry box. Now I can wear it and carry its memory with me all the time.
