    I can't see whats in mine through the thick layer of dust on top and the army of dust bunnies that guard the drawers.....although I have balanced a book by David Baldachi on the top of all that so I can read before I go to sleep. :wink:

    On top I have quilts waiting to be gifted(it is down to only 4 now). A tin with hair thingies in it, and a small stack of tissues. Open the doors and you find quilting and craft books of an assorted nature. The headboard of my bed is a whole other story, though.

    LOL Yes, our drawers (not just your bedroom nightstand) tell a lot about us. We had a radio station here in N. Calif that used to have a contest on your kitchen junk drawer. What a hoot that was to listen to what people had in them! Of course it was nice if you had named off the object that the DJ was looking for, then you got that day's prize.

    Well, the drawers hold just underwear & socks, tho I think there might be some old letters in one and cassett tapes to help you lose weight--no, they didn't work. On top is a lamp, a book I've finished, one I'm reading, a couple of Guidepost magazines I've finished, phone, nail clips, foot cream, callous remover, and eye drops. I have a terrible time keeping that thing cleared off. :D

    My bedside table is small, only has room for my lamp, a personal CD player, coaster sitting in front of player & at the end of the stack of books, book light lying on top of the CD player, stack of books in front of lamp. A shelf below the one drawer, where it is 2 rows deep with books.

    Now for the contents of the drawer: there are 4 pens (2 work, I think). But one is a pink ribbon pen and that is why I keep it. A deck of cards, tissues, and a small book by Jay Alan Sekulow titled Knowing Your Rights. Also 6 booklets from Precept Ministries International, The Inductive Bible Study People. A stenographer tablet/journal. I must have slight desire to journal occasionally or someone in my family thinks I should because I found, a blank journal that has a quilt print cover, a snap closure, hardback blank journal, plus 2 other journals slightly started one in 1996 & 2001. Reading back was kind of fun/interesting. Also there was a notepad and the instruction booklet that came with the CD player and a tiny miniature of a FedEx box that once had a single piece of gum. Well that is the bed side table but my bookcase headboard is another whole story.


    I have my Bible, daily devotions and other book here. Also book behind those doors. And as you see a sm. bell collection plus some miniature furniture.
