Ten!

Here we go, from top left:

• Last Friday's auction paddle (not used! Except for swatting rear ends).
• That little knife was found here, at our rented home. It was curious to me so I kept it.
  
• I am addicted to Sunset Magazine (Life in the West) and have been acting strangely because of my addiction. I sent for a travel brochure on Sonoma Valley (how middle school geography project is that?) because I am longing to go there...
• There's a picture of me from three summers ago on the Oregon Coast. I spent a huge chunk of my childhood and beyond on the coast and out of nowhere it is hitting me how much of an impact that place has had on my whole life. Am I am who I am because I spent a lot of time on the Oregon Coast? Deep. Thoughts. You can expect more on this eureka moment of mine in posts to follow.
• M paperweight. No explanation needed, really. Other than it was a gift.
  
• More. Me. Baby me. I'm on the left, the blond is my mom's friend's son. I think, aside from our infancy, I've seen him once. And that time I was 5.
