New Afghans

Well, the new afghans are progressing slowly, very slowly. I would post photos but as I said I broke my camera. I has now been shipped off into the netherworlds of camera repair and I do hope to see it again. My big fear is that they will lose it. I wrote my name and phone no on it with a sharpie marker just in case.

I have a new desk calendar that I just love, it's a Mary Englebrit and every day is a joy to tear off. I also finally bought some sock monkey pj's to match my slippers and an actual stuffed sock monkey. He sits atop my TV set in the bedroom. I can't help it they just make me smile and that's worth something when you live in my world. I didn't do any after Christmas sale stuff this year because I didn't really need anything. I have my little Christmas tree that sits on top of my book shelves and which by the way is still up and plugged in every day because that also makes me smile. I didn't need wrapping paper because I bought enough lasat year to hold me over for a few years. I used a lot of bags this year anyway and they came from the dollar store. And I don't have room for santas and snowmen and such to sit around my house so no need to shop after Christmas. Plus I buy all of my clothes at the goodwill so I didn't have to take advantage of clothing sales.

It's not that I'm cheap, it's that I'm on a limited income. I actually usually cut my own hair with a pair of shears, that's right I buzz cut my hair. But I'm trying to let it grow out so at some point I'm going to have to go to a (gasp) salon.

Well I'm off for today.
