My husband Alex has a weapon that has been handed down in his family for a few generations.The rather deadly looking tomahawk is hanging in the office along with some of his commendations and awards for military service.
(Alex has a lot of those and a ton of medals from 25 years of being in the military.)
The tomahawk is one of his prized possessions right along with his handmade Kachina dolls, Indian pottery, baseball card collection and black cars. Alex also collects bobble head dolls from Giant's ballgames. Oh, and then there is also a foreign coin collection that Alex has acquired in his travels. Wait! I'm forgetting about the guns! Alex has a gun safe that is jam packed full with rifles, shotguns, and handguns.
We have a curio cabinet full of his "stuff", as well as a display case for his medals. We have unfortunately run out of room for much more.
For example, Alex's three black cars take up all the room on our long driveway. Alex's commendations take up a full wall in our house. The Native American paraphernalia is spread out all over the house. We also have tons of "tech toys" everyplace you look. There are laptops, gps units, portable dvd players, ipods, ear phones, calculators, along with things that are tech toys but I have no idea what they are.
I am frankly something of a minimalist. I love the "less is more" approach to things. Alex is a "more is better" kind of guy. When I look on the bright side, I realize he never complains about my fat ass.
Still, do any of you know how I can contact the tv series "Hoarders"? I think we need an intervention.
