OK...this is my thread...call me a moron...you won't be the first...

So like I said, my home is full of s*it, and I wonder what makes some of this special to me...so my question again...in my own thread...

What is your favorite possession and why?

My favorite possession is my computer cause that's what keeps me connected to the xenaverse! WXF

This may sound silly, but my most favorite possession is the fake animal (antelope, maybe?) skull I bought off of ebay that was used in Xena or Hercules. I still haven't been able to figure out what episode it was used in. Oh well. Just knowing I have a piece of that is enough for me.

I have two really, my motorcycle and my grandfather's harmonica.

I have a bunch of significant little things, and they are all important to me. A lot of rocks and fossils from everywhere. I must have brought back 10 pounds of rocks, shells and sand from New Zealand. (I'm as bad as Lucy. ) My Mom got me this kick ass old printers tray to hang on the wall and display my collection of rocks and fossils.

Edited because I'm an idiot and type faster than I think.

Various photographs that are irreplacable.

Other than that a ring that has sentimental value and some letters from my grandmothers who have passed away.

heh...I was gonna say photographs, too. specifically my babies' baby pictures.

And also a few things that were from them or their dad. Their sweet little drawings "This is you and me, Mommy". The first gift Rich gave me--a little perfume bottle which, unfortunately, was broken being knocked out of the medicine cabinet a few months ago. The pieces are in a plastic leftover dish on my bookshelf. I should've kept it someplace safer, but it was nice seeing it every day.

I'd like to say my house as well, but we don't actually own it so I guess it doesn't really count as a possession. But still it's very important to me as a momento, of a sort. I can stand on the spot my daughter was born, and from there I can see the places where my children took their first steps and where they each said their first words. Clearly it's a very small house, but nevertheless...

My necklace because it's very, very special to me. It could be replaced, but the new one would never have the same meaning as the original.

I dont have just 1 fav possession. There's so many little things that mean the world to me.

A ring that I got from my cousin, the old chakram necklace I got from a very close friend, little paintings from several friends, a necklace that Moonie gave to me, letters from a close friend, a lil teddy-bear from Salem...things like that.
Even all the postcards I got from several scrollers are some of my most fav possessions.

One of my most precious possessions now belongs to Hudson (Leick) for I gave it to her at COW4 - a silver-spider necklace!

Our Xena stuff, photo albums, Madonna tapes and our dolls.

guess its the gifts from my Nick,his handprint he made at church,a flower he gave me that I dried those to me are priceless. I have a large arrowhead and civil war bullet collection that I'm letting a friend have to put in our county museum,my ggg-grandfathers civil war papers.A civil war chess set a friend made and hand painted,it has LEE and Grant and their ladies as the kings and queens. Things like that...

I'd have to say...the drawings my brother and sisters made for me. All of them were in crayon or in squiggly writing as they were all quite young when they made them. The ones they made on my birthdays...that was always the best gift.

My 1 yr. anniversary memory book Keri made for us.

My picture of Keri and I at Disneyland. My whole box o' special stuff.

Lila, you crawl around in my head at night don't you?

Same things, photographs and my grandmothers' letters.

When I was 8 and living in south Texas, my family lost all of our photos in a flood (Hurricane Beulah). Then when I was 18 my parents split up. My mom moved into an apartment and stored many personal items in a storage unit. A tornado hit the storage building and destroyed everything she had there, including all the photos taken since 1967. The photos I have are the extra ones sent to my grandparents over the years. They are few.

I wrote both my grandmothers while in college. I have saved most of the letters we exchanged during that time. My sister and I have laughed ourselves silly reading together.
