get bug ...

Last month I bought 'Amigurumi Two' online because of the best deal found and the lack of local craft stores having it or allowing for discount. I also got two other packages in a week's time. I think I got bit by the online-packages-by-mail bug! When my quest to find "hana-ami flower loom' and yo-yo flower makers bottomed out, I got fed up from of making trips and having to come home frustrated.

So I thought that I would allow for a purchase this month for a Knitting Board book that only can be gotten online. Then next month I would get Snow Leopard & the 'hana-ami flower loom'. Then maybe I would stop because of the holiday season that is coming up quick and the pennies needing to stretch out a bit.

Problem - I was talking about the Chronological Bible I began reading in June to my little bro. He got excited because he wanted to try reading the Bible that way. I was going to give him the info but then I thought what a great 'just because' gift for him! However, one thing leads to another - especially when I begin to do comparative shopping between stores. I start putting in other little things in the search box like the Queensland series by Bonnie Leon. I was going to read them from the Library but what are you to do when you can get two of the books for 2.99 each?

So my list grows longer, the finds add up, and the bank empties! Ahh, one thing adds to another. I just need to reign myself in here and behave! So I bookmark for a later date and off I go to dream and scheme.... O, maybe that is the problem! Like all morning I have been thinking of a purse design for a prezzie for my niece in sunshine yellow and persimmon orange yarn. Wondering if I can pull it off and do it in a weeks time!
