That's how my Mom is. She's not interested in antiques. Several of her sisters like antiques and when I visit them, that's where we shop......flea markets and antique malls. When my Mom's around we just drag her with us. She's started collecting some stuff so she has something to look for, but her collections aren't antiques, just some figurines that she likes.

When my Mom's mother and father moved to town from the farm they bought a wonderful huge old house here in town with the furniture in it. When they moved they had an auction and sold off everything but it was before everyone was interested in antiques and I was pretty small. Grandma wanted new stuff not that old stuff! My aunts have really been sorry that they didn't pay more attention and get some of the stuff.
