Morning all, I’m just up from the 2nd nap of the day. I know, how self indulgent of me. I went to bed before 10 last night, and woke up at 12:30 this morning. I didn’t know that we had severe weather coming, but my body sure did.
Needless to say, I ended up staying up till after 3 severe thunder boomers, and then caught a short nap, and then another. Yuck. According to the gods at samsung, I only slept about 2 hours or so.
Enough whining. The refund check for the fabric that was lost arrived today in my bank account. I almost immediately went back to Amazon. I looked at other fabric, and I looked at accessories for my sewing devices. I lost about 40 minutes to the madness.
That’s what I call it, the madness. That imperious urge to SPEND! The problem? I can’t right now. Yes, the money is there, but I need it for other thingamies. Gasoline is expensive, groceries are expensive. Clothing is expensive, and this/that and the next thing are expensive. I realized, when I added a presser foot kit to the cart, that I would never probably use 95 percent of the crap in the cart.
Crap.
Damn it, being a responsible adult slapped me upside the head and made my stomache queasy. I swallowed hard, and deleted all of it. Screw it, I need to figure out all the stuff I do have first.
Reminds me of the barbie bathtub I had once. My step mother was convinced that I needed more barbies. One holiday, there was a barbie bathtub in the pile, I had no clue how to use it, and ended up spilling the bubble bath on the carpet. It went to waste, in other words.
I don’t need another bathtub, and I barely used that one. Luckily, when the house fire came and I was barely 11 years old… I was too old for barbies and all the shit that came with them.
I still miss Sherbet, the engineer stuffed dog that I had. He was my teddy bear for a long time. Damn. Sherbet old son, may you rest in peace. I still love you.
