Spring Banner Finally Started

Yes, you read it correctly. I finally forced myself to start the Spring Banner cyberclass last night. I only got two letters stitched and have a long way to go to catch up. Too bad the second installment (and there were only two installments!) will be released tomorrow. I guess I won’t get caught up unless my fingers start to fly! And with all of the headache and eye strain problems I’ve been having over the past couple of days, the chances of that happening are … well, one can always hope. 🙂

Oh, I almost forgot. I indulged in some S.E.X. today. I knew there was a reason that I stopped reading Nordic Needle’s newsletters… too tempting. So, yesterday I made the mistake of going out and reading their latest newsletter. BIG mistake! They put some of the Lorri Birmingham Nantucket basket kits on sale. The expensive purse kits. 40% off. I just couldn’t resist. That quickly turned into a $70 order. And then, while I was at it, I put an order in with Jennifer at Needlework Plus and blew another (minor) chunk of change. I wrestled with myself mightily while deciding what to order and forced myself to pare down to what I really needed, plus a couple of extras. Otherwise, I could have easily spent $150 or more between the two shops. I tend to buy more stuff when I’m stressed because I think it will cheer me up, but sadly when it arrives, I seem to derive less satisfaction from it if I’m stressed. What a catch 22.

Anyway, I need to stop working, stop typing and start stitching! Maybe a quick nap first, though. LOL
