Five Crazy Things: Treasure Box

Barbara: This is our ongoing series of “first five thoughts” when we ask you a specific question. We also want to thank those of you who’ve suggested some possible future Five Crazy Things. Don’t worry, we are keeping a list!

Today’s question is: what are the first 5 things—NOT LIVING—that you would put inside your treasure box (of any shape and size)?

1.     My manuscripts.

2.     My wedding rings. (Yes, they mean a lot, in every sense of the word.)

3.     My eggcup of special stones/shells. (The stones are from a long-ago trip to a gemstone store where, for 10 dollars, they ask you to close your eyes and randomly pick 5 stones from a case of gemstones, then a “reader” interprets your choices. Apparently mine had to do with: friendship, love, creativity, and spirituality.) (The shells are the tiny specimens that have beckoned over the last couple of beach trips. A couple are from the Costa Rica trip beachcombing with Deb and Colin.)

4.     My photo collection, both old (real) ones and new (digital).

5.     My cup of tea (not the cup, per se, but the cup of tea).

Deb:
1. Our home movies
2. My music
3. Our photographs
4. My wedding rings
5. My sketchpad
