The Memory Collector
Everyone collects something right?
It may be baseball cards, hats, or some other type of sports memorabilia.
Even if you don't consider yourself a collector of anything, you may be and don't even know it.
How about the collection of tools in the cellar you don't really use, but you have to have them!
Even maybe all those movies laying around you no longer watch, sounds like a collection to me.More common items people typically collect are things like, coins, military items, guns, and sports items.
Generally it will be something that once interested a person, had an impact on their lives or they just simply enjoyed.
Me, I am a collector of shot glasses.
What it was that spawned the interest is beyond me, I think it may have started in college.
I now have a collection of over 300 shot glasses, and yes, I have had at least 1 shot of some type of a concoction from each one of them.
Looking at them now, they are reminders of places I have been, and things I have done.
Every one of them has a story to be told, the memories flood my mind every time I pick one up.
None of my shot glasses really have any monetary value, but I would never part with them, as a collection, they are proof of my existence if kept together.
I have searched the internet to find the reasons why others collect shot glasses.
This quote was found on a personal site of an obvious diehard Hard Rock Caf? shot glass collector; "My goal is to display each of the shot glasses that have been available over the years from The Hard Rock Cafes and The Hard Rock Hotel."
Needless to say, the man(or woman) has their work cut out for them to complete that collection.
My next quote comes from another personal web site; "I love my shot glasses! Currently I own almost 400 of the mini drinking vessels. My friends insist that one day we have a party where each glass gets used at least once. I don't have enough floor space for when they pass out! For now, I am content to hanging these puppies on the wall.
My other loves are Pink Flamingos and Oreo Cookies, but they haven't overwhelmed an entire room yet. Give me time." This collector just loves collecting them, no rhyme or reason why, she just enjoys the act of doing so.
I am sure it is clear to you by now that the reasons why people collect many times are very different. They range from being a simple hobby, all the way to self preservation. Sometimes people collections end up in museums after they have past on.
The Smithsonian Institution is living proof of that. So no matter what it is you collect just remember, next time you go somewhere, bring a memory home with you..

He said ok Charles because of you I need to hire more men. And I will need to double my order to. He said, Do you know what has happened to me. Last weekend I was gassing my boat up and a man said to me do you do landscaping. I said...

ADD / ADHD Children : Being Your Child's Best Friend
Do you live with an ADD / ADHD child? If so-- my hat is off to you! ADD / ADHD children are brilliant, full of energy, smart as a whip (as grandma says), and tons of work. They are also the rising sun and the setting star: meaning much of life revolves around them in one way or another. One tactic you might employ is to: be your child's best friend.Hear me out just a bit. I am not promoting parents in "jammies" all day-- everyday, messy homes filled with increasing whirlwind clutter that no-one attends to, nor hot dogs and pizza nightly just to avoid more arguing with an ADD / ADHD child.I am suggesting the reminder we all need with these special needs children: keep perspective.And yes-- try thinking along the lines of being best friends with your child.Best friends are people who look out for the best interest of another. Best friends have a special tolerance for each other.
Best friends set aside time to truly know each other and how each other thinks and feels.Best friends...

What do you really know about your candle purchase?
Recently, I had the opportunity to attend a popular gift show in my local area. My purpose in attending this gift show was to scope out my competition and the quality of their soy candles compared to what I offer. I was truly surprised with the results of how many candle exhibitors were present and was more so surprised with the results of how well they didn't know their product.Now my results are in no way to badger the company in anyway, but to open the eyes of our consumers, the results are:Candle...
