I Need Help
I am seriously in need of help. I can't stop buying yarn. I can't do it.
On Friday afternoon, I had to run out to the library to pick up a stack of books I'd reserved. On my way home, my car *refused* to go the right way. Instead, it kidnapped me and took me straight to Hobby Lobby. I swear I had nothing to do with it. It was the car's fault. But, while I was there, I figured I might as well go in and buy more yarn, since it was 50% off and all.
As I stood in line, my arms full of more yarn once again, I kept telling myself, "You have a disease. You need help."
I figure it could be worse, though. Instead of spending the weekend cleaning toilets and scrubbing floors, I could have been in Maryland, where I would have undoubtedly been blowing the money that my conscientious husband has been saving for our retirement. The pictures are already starting to roll in -- and I have to tell you how very jealous I am. I can hardly stand it. I desperately wanted to go. In fact, I have a Maryland Fund -- I've been saving my quarters and dimes and nickels and pennies since last year (and -- don't tell Paul, but I've been taking the change he dumps out of his pockets and leaves around the house, too...).
The Mitten Maven tells me that we're getting a caravan together next year, and we're all going, and I am so there.
On the bright side, however, I've had time this weekend to work on the Adamas. I'm almost to the point where I won't be able to spread the stitches out over the needle anymore, so I'll post a picture soon...

Change left around the house is definitely fair game.
I would so drive to Maryland for yarn... but my family would probably kill me,

I've been drooling over other knitblogger's festival photos, too... and next year I'm sooo there!
and really, it was 50% off! noone can resist yarn that is 50% off. :-)
