Walking through the neighborhood where I grew up, where the house that was my mother’s is: I passed “Stevenson’s.” This is kind of an antique store full of oddments. I asked Mike Stevenson to look at my mother’s stuff after she died in June 2021. He took some furniture and a bunch of odd things, games, costume jewelry. He gave me $100 for the odd things. Walking by just now I saw my mother’s Scrabble game. Or was it my mother’s? I regretted giving it to him. It had wooden tiles - I was told they don’t make wooden Scrabble tiles anymore (Is that true?). Also I’ve lost several tiles in my set and replaced them with cardboard. I went in. I said, “Can I buy back my mother’s Scrabble game?” “ Just take it,” said Stephenson’s wife as she called Mike over. “just take it,” said Mike.
