So I ... to pack up all of the statues and sell them.

Not a job I'm enjoying at all. Very depressing.

I can't believe how long it takes me to pack up each statue. It's like a jig-saw puzzle. I've never had to pack a collection up before, just unpack and display.

This sucks. Thanks Sput!
She's probably laughing at me as I swear and cry and muddle my way through this.

It's going to take me days.

That's a tough job. Especially as you were collecting together.

It's horrible. I wish we could just leave it for a few years.

Everyone deals differently I guess.

Hi Fremen.

I'm sure it is hard so take your time.

I would keep a favorite one or an anecdotic one(hard too, I imagine).

Keep going.

Yep I certainly wouldn't be in a hurry to get rid of my wifes stuff so quickly but then as you say we all deal with this stuff differently. Maybe it's too much of a reminder of the woman he loved.

He needs me to get it done by this weekend. Says he got a roommate and needs that room so I have no choice but to hurry.

I have bought a few already and am going to buy a couple of her Nightmare before Christmas pieces cause they were among her favorite.

I bought her corpse bride on the bench cause she loved it, her gentle giant cartoony princess leia with
R2D2 cause she really also liked those.
Her LOTR flags because they were supposed to be my christmas present but she decided she liked them too much, and one sideshow weta LOTR piece.

I wish I had a million dollars, I'd just buy it all and set it up in my house like she had it set up.

Her daughter took the SS Lord of Darkness which is good because Greatwall gave it to Sputnik for nothing.

Cause there's no way in hell he could do it.
He knows nothing about this stuff let alone how to pack it up.
He calls it 'junk'.

Rant over.
