I found some cute spa/bath mitts to make for friends of all ages. How cute are these?

I have just about finished the other projects, so these will be fun to start on next. I am taking the next week off, so my arm can rest. Camping here I come!

Don’t you hate it when you have money and its burning a hole in your pocket!? I am in a spending mood, but as the old saying goes, when you have the money you can never find what you need, and when you don’t have the money you find everything you need/want.

We have a few big ticket items on our list of “wants”, from a flat screen TV, a stand and a chest freezer. I am thinking we are waiting until after tax time to see where our funds are before we purchase any of these. But for now, we need to get a new DVD Player, as the one we have is slowly dieing. I would like to get a DVD/DVR combo one, so if there are any shows John wants to record to later show his dad, we can make a DVD and bring it with us when we go over to their house. As it is right now, we have a DVR, but its through Comcast, so no taking a DVD with us.

I went through the sale ads today to see if any one was having a sale on yarn. I am in need of some cotton yarn to finish up some dish cloths, and found one store that has it for 4 for $5, not a bad price. I know where I will be going in the morning after the hubby leaves for work.

Not only on yarn, but on discount supplements as well. I have several projects I want to complete before Christmas, so I need to make sure I stay healthy, and that my arm doesn’t have a set back and throw me off with the gifts I want to make. Not sure I will have a back up plan if it give out.

So after the women’s day of refresh is over with I will be stopping at Michael’s, then the health food store. What are your plans for Saturday?

It seems like that’s all it has done around here lately, so much that I am thinking about getting some kamik rain boots, as well as some other rain gear. I have been knitting a little lately, so its been helping the long days go by a little faster. If I can keep this up I will have 3 people’s Christmas gifts done before fall!!

I will be getting back into scrapbooking soon, as I just ordered a digital scrapbook software from Creative Memories. I have to get back on top of all of my pictures. The ones on the computer will all be done with this software, but I will have to finish up all the others I have the old fashion way.

I have started my Christmas projects already. Its going to take me a while, so I started last night. They are going to be similar gifts for three different people, just hoping I can get them all completed in time. I just have to keep up on my arm exercises so I don’t loose any strength I have gained thus far.

If I get the hang of digital scrapping, I will be making scrapbooks for gifts as well. I will have to look into external hard drives so I can store all the pages until I can get them printed.
