Favorite possessions I can see from the sofa:

1. Our framed wedding invitation.
2. Sparky's silhouette and the frame it's in.
3. The Tiffany-style candle holders on the mantle.
4. All the ceiling light fixtures I can see.
5. The lamp I got from one of the ladies I used to deliver library books to; technically, her daughter gave it to us when her mom died.
6. The really lovely Chinese art given to Beast by a co-worker a few years ago.
7. Our dining room table, scavenged and repaired by my dad.
8. The pewter plates above the kitchen cupboards.
9. The surround-sound components that go with the TV.
10. The firewood rack and fireplace tools.
11. The card-catalog end-table.
12. My bentwood rocker.
13. The serape I got in Mexico 25 years ago.
14. The Pieta prints in the dining.
15. The dressers my dad made for my sisters.
