Were you THAT kid?
I still am.
I wonder if anyone actually believes they can get rich with all that extra change in the washer? Not sure it matters, but I will tell you, anything that comes out of the washer in my house falls under the rule, finders keepers. That keeps everyone pretty diligent about checking.

What about the other stuff? There is that stuff we find along the way.
That, my friends, is what makes us rich…in character. For me, there is a reason behind everything I gather. The pinecone is from my granddaughter and from her first hike in the north country. She brought it to me because she knew I would like it. There is the stone, really a wishing rock, that my grandson and I found, the ceramic chunk from a beach walk near our home in Spain, and the pebble from my great niece who said it was a magic rock and I should save it.
The sea-glass is from my collection. It is much harder to find these days, making the new finds even more special. In fact, there is something special to love about emptying pockets following a trip to the beach or through the woods.
How about you? What’s in YOUR pockets?

Love it! What in your pocket. Sadly mine is usually a Kleenex. Sadder still, it stays there when I do the laundry sometimes. π

Ha, Marsha, that’s what’s usually in mine too along with some chapstick-type stuff.

Very sad! I’ve never washed and dried chapstick. That sounds like the effects from washing a fountain or permanent marker with a load of clothes. Expensive mistake! π

So I’m not the only one?! My husband is always irritated when his trousers come out of the wash covered in tissue shreds from mine!

Haha Vince washes his separately if he can get to the laundry before I do. π

Wonderful. π I always carry a shell in a coat or jacket pocket as if an alien were likely to descend at any moment and a shell would buy me immense knowledge. So I know exactly what you mean.

I love your pocket collection and the stories behind the items. Like Marsha I have only a tissue in mine most of the time, but handbags? That’s another story!

Oh the wheat penny is something I am always looking for.
We are rock hounds so there is always a rock to be had in one of our pockets. And I have special small finds in my purse… as I bet you a few dollars they bring me luck. lol!
