If this seems like de ja vu, it is. Too much time has passed much too quickly. I feel like I am back in school (don't ask about how long ago that was!) putting off things I need to do, not getting the things I want to do done. We have found so many things in the latest batch of boxes and trunks to be excited about.

I can appreciate the find for itself but it stokes my curiosity to know about it. The where, what, who and the why are all so important to me. I can write reports about most of the things I have in my collections. Worse, I do not intend to stop, it is part of the joy of collecting. Regrettably, when there are so many new finds it tends to over take my mind. I guess I should find a obsessive research support group. Then again I think of it as keeping my mind working, I am getting to THAT age group according to the calendar.
People are beginning to collect antiques - read things - I grew up with. Makes a body feel ...collectible - if you thoughI I was going to say old you are not over 40. So I will continue to prepare the posts to share these wonderful items. I will work around the unending remodel of our mid century modern (not so much) house as we get our items put into their places to share photos with you. I am still celebrating getting the roof replaced!
Balancing work, collecting, home and family & friends are too rewarding and much to dear to cut back on any of them. So I will continue to count my blessing of being overwhelmed and keep on learning but I will also get better about sharing.
