    I don't know, I have too many to choose a favorite. Besides my wedding ring, which is an heirloom from Paul's grandmother and of course hugely symbolic of our marriage, I have my teddy bear, who is now kinda .. uh ... "loved" looking but that Aunt Dottie made for me when I was born, I have a photo album of my great great grandmother's ...

    Too hard to choose a favorite!

    I also find it hard to choose a favourite, but one that comes to mind is a "Tiffany" lamp John gave me. Also my photo albums from the time I grew up. - with family and friends.

    I have a blanket that was made by my grandmothers cousin when I was born. It needs new backing on it so it is stored at my moms house for safe keeping.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Probably all of my photos, most of which are on the computer.

    Anything that I have that was either given to me by my brother or used to belong to him when he was alive. . .

    My guitar and flutes. . .

    Real, real old family photos - some dating back to the the 1920's and older.

    Handmade items that my mother did - needlework, Christmas items, etc. She was quite talented and creative.

    A ring that I had custom made from the diamonds that were in my mother's engagement and wedding rings. I'm thinking that maybe I will give it to my granddaughter when she graduates next year.

    Jewelry that my Dad made. He was in watch and jewelry repair for many years, and made a lot of pieces of jewelry for my mother and aunt, and eventually those pieces came to me. Also a pin that he made just for me when I was only a little tyke.

    Probably my class ring, my baby blanket, or my gold Tinkerbell necklace that I wear in memory of Tink.

    There are quite a few things, but my Jeep is probably at the top of the list. I am far too attached to it and it is priceless to me, even if it is purely for sentimental reasons. It is only a 1996, but it is the first vehicle my parents bought brand new.... and it is the vehicle my dad taught me how to drive in. I remember sitting in the back seat of it that night we brought RB Frisk home for the first time when he was just a wee puppy. There are just so many good memories.....

    My degrees, which are stashed in a drawer, but they represent quite a lot of work. Well, not so much my bachelor's degree - that represents some work and loads of goofing off. But my master's... that was a lot of work.

    I have a music box my grandmother bought when she went to Hawaii with her sister. Every time I look at it, I am reminded of her.

    Tons of pictures, some of which I should probably have copies made of because of their age or because I don't have the negatives.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    Hmmmm. Not a prized possession, but I really love my 1997 Rav4. I swear, it runs great, never had problems, I just can't get myself to part with it. I've test driven other cars, but just don't "feel it"

    I just looked down and realized my most prized possession(s) are my parents' wedding rings, which I had resized and wear together on my left thumb.



    I've been Boooo'd!
