ROFL, yep...i know no one ELSE would notice, but if it's in my home, it drives me
absolutely bonkers.

When I purchased the set of dishes--they had 8 place settings and ONLY 4
glasses and 4 mugs to match them.no cup/saucers either.BUT I finally have a
set of 8 in dishes and a 'set of 4glasses/4cups' for drinking 'thingies' .
When we had Cmas company--it worked out perfectly--4 used glasses and 4 used
cups for their choice of Beverage : )

I am quite the opposite. I have to have 8 matching glasses at all times.
To match
my dishes...8 place settings. I'm insane, and happily so. Good news is,
that I get
rid of the glasses that are "extra" so i don't accumulate too much stuff.

Drinking glasses? Do NOT, repeat, do NOT go to my cupboards and expect
to
find a set of them....you won't. I have this really strange habit of
dropping things like glasses /dishes/ you know the stuff you usually
have
SETS of......
hmmmmm, maybe I should hit a few garage sales this summer and actually
BUY a
set of glasses--then it might not bother me too much when I drop
them......
Butterfly (I have ONE set of glasses that are only used for very special
occasions--just so I can SAY I have 4 matching glasses---weren't those
the
10 cent glasses you got this summer? : )

Im not horrified, and I think to some extent most of us can relate in
one
way or another. Its so easy to aquire *things* nowadays and so hard to
get
rid of them that its made us into a nation of packrats with to much
stuff!
Just watch the plethora of shows on cable channels dealing with
organizing
'stuff'. Its horrifying! And we keep buying MORE. If you dont believe
me
go
to any decent sized garage sale and look at how many drinking glasses
are
for sale.
Just so you know, this rant doesnt apply to quilt and craft books,
supplies, tools or materials. The key to keeping those from being a
problem
is good storage techniques. ;-)

Diana.. wow, I'm glad people are enjoying my efforts... I have to
admit
that
before I began sharing it I was a little scared, thinking people
would
be
horrified at the state of mess I have going here!
