What do you have stashed away under your bed?

My old iMac and eight studio lights with associated paraphernalia (Softboxes, grids, umbrellas etc.)
 

Absolutely nothing as I have allergies and asthma and need to be able to vacuum under my bed regularly. I keep clutter under control by removing a like item if I buy anything new.
 
No 12 gauge though, Colla my cat likes to hide there.
 

In the winter, the under bed storage holds my summer clothes, which includes a large collection of tropical theme shirts, that I have collected over the years when B and I visit her family who live in The Bahamas, plus a sizeable collection of art supplies, an art wood burning kit, and photos of my long ago oval track race cars.

In the warm weather, the under bed inventory changes to include winter clothing, boots, wool socks, down filled vests and a long knee length Hudson's Bay parka, rated for minus 40F.

All of the clothes are in large zipper bags, that stack nicely under the bed frame. JIM.
 
It's actually empty and clean, thanks to my dog who spends half of each night squeezing around under there. That's where he starts, by morning he's usually in his doggy bed, or if it gets late, he's right where I need to put my feet when I get out of bed.
 
I have a full size bed. You know those short-sided boxes that produce gets delivered to stores in? And ones that are often base for canned goods (particularly sodas) sold in bulk? i have between 12 to15 of those holding my collection of what my older sister K, who has her own collection of them, and i call "Little Books". Because all their dimensions, including thickness are small. Height and width 3- 6 inches. Thickness rarely even a full inch.

Mostly inspirational and uplifting things, many are nearing the centennial of their publication date. Philosophical and spiritual essays. Including a set of very slender writings by various people involved in the early days of Alcoholics Anonymous, written as guidance for members. While i've never been an alcoholic, considering that they were the first of the 12 step programs i consider them of psychological and social historical interest.
