Wonderful Day

Still no job, but I am learning to look on the bright side. Look at me, on the bright side. Shiny, sunny day.

Anyway, I ordered 8 books online today and paid $8 total. Yeah! (Only 6 of those are knitting books.) Still, I can't wait. It will be awhile until I can get anymore yarn for future projects, but I'm excited to look through each and every page of these books.

So, how could I afford this? I won a $50 gift certificate as part of the reading program at the local library. I promptly got on-line and got spending. Also, Dave and I have been saving our change (mostly mine from when I was 12-18 y.o.). This was able to get a gift certificate at the local put-your-change-in-me machines. (no surcharge)

I'm off to wait for the mail man. He'll only take a week or so.
