I Have Dish Envy

It's not good to covet.
Is it coveting if I want my own,
not hers?
I hadn't realized my preoccupation with tableware
until the day I noticed I had 5 sets of dishes!
And actually, now that I'm looking back, I do believe
I got up to 6 sets before I came to the belief that it was
bad to have so many and gave one set to Shanna and
sold another set in a garage sale. 
They were purple.
(The set I sold)
I miss them.
What was I thinking!?
The set I gave Shanna came from Germany.
In our luggage.
They have purple in them.
I don't miss them. 
I have visitation rights.

So, doing the math one would surmise that I am in 
possession of 4 remaining sets of tableware
and one would be right.
I think we should all be open to change. 
Nobody should be rigid.
We should reexamine things from time to time.

I DON'T BELIEVE ONE CAN HAVE 
TOO MANY DISHES.

I'll deal with my covetousness or lack thereof
another day.

  1. Being the true friend that I am, I'll take a set, thereby leaving your guilt free (and cupboard empty) to get another set...
