Hi there! This is the first time I posted to this community, as far as I remember, and I hope I did it right.
On the topic of magazines: My uncle used to subscribe to National Wildlife for me every year for Christmas, probably for 30 years. I really enjoyed that magazine. Right now I only get Victoria magazine, because my sister gives it to me for Christmas. I like magazines, but I don't like the way they end up cluttering my house! So I read them in the waiting room at the clinic, or at the library.

Welcome, @scribblingramma !!! You know I love having you here! I am sure you did fine - and you even dropped the link! Bonus!! It makes it so much easier to find your post!
Magazines were special when I was growing up, and, when I got my own, it was so cool. I had eight brothers and sisters and things tended to be given to everyone, except my aunt... she was one of eight children and understood the need once in a while to get something meant just for you.
Anyway, I love Victoria magazine, I discovered it years back when we were in Phoenix for a year and my neighbor introduced me to it! So lacy and girly and it just reminds me of an era gone by. I wish I could take pictures like that! Oh! A winter project! :))
I have a coffee table and that is where they live. Okay I have one in the Lower leverl den/living room, whatever the heck they call these extra living spaces! This is where the magazines live. You can bring it to your bedroom but, it needs to find its way back and I donate them after one month to retirement villages or rest homes. Boom. New set in, old set out. We read fast enough. The thing is, we are all internet readers too. we just like information and *glossy pictures!)
Thank you again, I don't blame you. I hate clutter. OMG! So, if it ever got to that place, there would be NO more. :)
Thanks for posting in #MarketFriday!
I saved those National Wildlife magazines for years. Not sure why. I finally donated them to the local school, because of all the cool pictures inside. I have troubles parting with the Victoria magazines. My sister has every issue since they first were printed....now that's dedication! (And OCD maybe?)
Lol
No judgement here! I give them away ever mobth or two, otherwise I will have too many. The retirement homes live them. I satisfy myself knowing that if I need something with them I can get it online. I still like the magazines but I cannot keep everything and being that is available and it's appreciated where it goes, makes it easier. I do love that Victoria!
