My 6th grade teacher told me 50 some years ago that we all need to collect something so we can sort through it when we get old and review memories about them....I guess I took that to heart! I collect unsharpened advertising pencils...I discovered there is even an organization for us. Although my favorites, bullet pencils, are really hard to find anymore, do you have one? Farmers used to carry them in their overall pockets, my grandpa started me on this one. I also love bookmarks from everywhere, even if my kindle has spoiled my NEED for one. Ha-Ha!
