Sentimental things

There are two items which I think would be a pain to ship to Canada, and would probably cost me more than buying new ones there.. And these are a small table and chair, and my fan.. They are just sentimental.. I bought both in 2020 when I was working on immigration.. I remember the day I bought them, I was stressed and annoyed with my situation in the house and bought them to provide me with comfort.. They have sort of "been there for me" during tough time.. and I tend to get attached to inanimate objects .. I don't mean that in any fet!sh kind of way though since this is how it would probably be understood on SW!! but I just tend to develop weird loyalty to objects that gave me comfort...

But then, seeing them doesn't remind me much of comfort, but rather with my previous anxious and restricted life... and Idk why, but sometimes I do things on purpose that remind me of a difficult time.. like listening to a song which I know would be a reminder, or smelling some perfume.. Idk why I do this..

So I don't even know if it is a good idea to take them, beside the practicality and financial aspect.. Maybe it is time to move on and leave stuff from the past behind.. I still think it is wise to mention it on the list of my goods to bring with me, just in case I go crazy and feel that i absolutely want to take them..

Sell all that stuff... furniture, bed, tables, chairs etc....cost too much to bring with you...... its why people have estate sales when they are moving long distances, at least around here

@Tminus6453 yea practically speaking it doesn't make much sense to ship them. They are not valuable items and it would probably cost more to ship them given the huge distance.
Be sure to take some good photos of them. Maybe those could serve the same purpose. You still have a while to figure out if they do.

@NerdyPotato Good idea, I have not thought of that :) I will write them on my list for me to figure out later. There is no penalty to writing something and not shipping it 🤷‍♀️
