Letter my sister wrote Santa on behalf of us both, with the worst spelling I've seen in my life! (she's going for her Master's now, so kind of funny), handmade cards professing how great I am from a brother I barely talk to now. -daughter
Newspapers from late 1800's from grandparents hoard-Donna, daughter
Entire dead, intact mouse in wine bottle -Donna, daughter
1/11/08:
A 5-foot-long shed snakeskin fall on top of my sister-in-law's head!! After much frenzied investigation of what type of snake could be in the house and what kind of gear and traps we might need (there are some good ones with glue that can be left to dissolve elsewhere with water or oil if you are inclined to relocate a helpful rodent-eating species), we learned that my parents had brought the skin into the house from my grandmother's. What a relief!

4/29/08:
message: My husband and I cleaned out my moms apartment and found $2021.63 worth of change that we picked up off the floor

5/7/08:
I thought finding cartons of eggs dated from the 70's that were full cartons mind you was bizarre - and they were so old, that they were totally empty eggs in intact shells - they did not even smell anymore.

5/7/08:
Two full skeletons of squirrels in Dad's bedroom. Only bones, tiny little white bones with teeth and lots of evidence of fly reproduction. I knew I smelled something 7 years ago when I visited. -daughter

5/8/08:
Bathtub full of used Depends.

5/12/08:
message: While cleaning out my grandmas bedroom, Under the bed,(finally) Roughly 50 pictures of Jesus and one Playgirl magazine from 1985 with Charlie Sheen.
