Grandma J's Purpose Driven....

...MYSTERY BOX

Have I ever told you about my mystery box? It 's where I keep mystery stuff. Everyone has something like a mystery box don't they?

When I was younger I kept dried corsages and engraved stuff like prom invitations and parking tickets. When I get older I might start one for obituary notices more important memorabilia and newer parking tickets.

For right now, I keep important items in my mystery box like lint secret stuff.


Of course this would be the perfect place to keep my Fastrak Transponder for the Orange County Tollroads that I haven't returned in the two years I've been in Texas.....don't ya think?


Maybe I could start stashing money in it and call it a Stimulus Chest...for my retirement fund. Oh wait! I'm already retired!


Do you have a mystery box? How about a secret hiding place for odd socks treasures?

I have many, many secret boxes. I have old memorabilia from my childhood and teens....I even have my old diary from High School. Of course I can't let that get out...but the movie would be really juicy if made. ;)
Does your box really say Mystery box on it?
you are too funny.
Why so many parking tickets anyway? I don't think I ever got one? what is wrong with me??

OMG my house is a mystery box too...well maybe just 1/2 of it since I have been on a "Toss some crap to Goodwill daily spree." I did uncover some more "treasures" when we moved our desks today...and I need to do some more tossing! No parking tickets here...they don't give those out for bikes :)

4/10 towels are embroidered and I am back to painting....yahoo!

Are you kidding? Nothing I have is private or a mystery. The only thing I have that no one looks in is probably my tackle box.

I have mystery drawers and one mystery closet...losts of memory boxes though.

What a great post because now I am thinking about maybe cleaning them out...the mystery ones, that is.

I have too many mystery boxes, drawers, closets, and bags. The other thing that is mysterious is when I will ever get around to cleaning them out.

Is that the Alf lamp guarding your mystery box? Hilarious.

Can I just tell you that I have so many mystery boxes it is ridiculous. Oh my. I don't even like to think about them. All 4 of my kitchen drawers are mystery boxes. What the heck do I stuff in there anyway? I need to be organized. I want you and Phillip Johnny Bob to come over and organize with me.

Please pray tomorrow because I am worried.
