Recently, my parents acquired two roosters. THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL.

Legally blind, almost deaf, and living on a fixed income, she would search her cupboards for something - a tea cup, a juice glass, a candy dish - and hand them over lovingly. The last gift that I remember was a less-than-clean used "My Little Pony" that she had won at bingo. I was 35. (And yes, I still have it) I never thought of myself as a collector until one day somebody visited my house for the first time, looked around and said "I love your collection of collections!" OK, so I collect a few things.Shel Harringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10493140059859176864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3944030917333154338.post-62079086446920429282013-02-12T22:28:46.447-06:002013-02-12T22:28:46.447-06:00Thanks, Heather.
