mskami77 295 Posted September 17, 2015 I collect lighthouses. It's a reminder of my mother and her guidance. Her name meant light so when she passed away I started collecting them. I love the ocean also so it just makes me happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VSGAnn2014 12,992 Posted September 17, 2015 Uh ... does anybody else see a connection between obesity and amassing these collections? There is tremendous spiritual and psychological value to cleansing our lives of so much stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Julie norton 2,850 Posted September 26, 2015 I see your point. I have 3 shelves of atomizers. But the bigger issue is I DO have too much stuff.. I'm guessing lots of us do. And I need to continue to purge extra stuff. I haven't moved in 32 years. And I will in the next year... So thanks for the reminder... We don't need so much "stuff" ( also. kids can get their art projects etc. Or move them on !) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mom26 313 Posted October 1, 2015 I collect salt & pepper shakers. I have about a hundred sets. I also collect cake stands, but don't think you can consider that collecting - as I own a cake company. @@Dub I was just talking to my husband about a new glock for when he retires from the PD. That'll be my retirement gift to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
