    Default Still resisting ....

    In late December, I went to a yarn store sale. Combined with my stash, I have yarn for many projects.

    I didn't consciously say, "I'm not buying yarn for X months." However, I've made it through January and most of February w/out buying even 1 skein.

    I wonder how long I'll continue ...

    Talking

    Don't hang out with me.......


    I been bad............


    Recently I went through some of my yarn and sold some on ebay. Have to do it again sometime soon.

    Today I brought home 3 skeins...found them at the dollar store
    Probably would have brought more home, but that is what fell in my cart.....that's my story and I am sticking to it.......

    I made a donation today to a church with some preemie knit hats that I just made. The church secretary sent me home with enough yarn to fill 2 brown grocery bags full. And she is going to dig me out some more........
    I haven't sneaked the bags in the house yet......
    maybe when he takes his afternoon nap......
