    There are so many different collections around here I don't know where to begin. Some are mine, some my mother's, some my daughter's. Daughter collects stuffed Snoopy dolls (the ones that come on Whitman's candy), plus the plastic Snoopys from the candy boxes, Tweety stuff, Hotwheels, AOL cd's (she thinks they are pretty and stacks them up), and other junk. LOL My mother used to collect miniature oil lamps, coins, stamps, & some other stuff I can't remember all of. Me, I collect WAY too much of everything. Coins, stamps, plastic Snoopys, silver charms, jewelry (most of which I don't even wear anymore), Marx Brothers videos (finally have all 13), cook books, craft books & lots of supplies, computer stuff, books (older hard cover Nancy Drew), & more stuff than I can remember all of right now. LOL

    Duh, Blonde moment.. completely forgot the HUGE collection of gumball machines I have. Everything from tiny ornaments to working machines 27" tall (before the stands).

    I go to antique auctions A LOT, so I have collections of:

    antique and vintage
    linen
    china
    copperware
    enamel ware
    old books (like late 1800's)
    tins

    I usually buy this stuff to resell, but DH says its becoming a collection in the spare rooms.

    birdhouses, butterfly houses, angels, fairies, wrought iron (and of course the cheap stuff that looks like wrought iron LOL), and I want to say I collect candles, but I burn them before they can accumulate!

    Of course, right now the only things I can afford to collect are baby bottles, diapers, and baby toys Oh and I am always on the look-out for matchbox cars for Nicky

    Every day I live I am more convinced that the waste of life lies in the love we have not given, the powers we have not used, the selfish prudence that will risk nothing and which, shirking pain, misses happiness as well.
