When I was a girl my Mother was
always cautioning me not to fall in love too easily. I was a grown woman with children of my own
before I realized that she was talking about more than just boys! She was talking about my penchant for being
swallowed up by passing fancies and useless trends. I am such a sucker for pretty things! I fall on my face in love with inanimate
objects every day. One of the first
things today was these darling purple shoes.
They would be perfect with the new dress I just bought and make the
transition into winter with a sigh rather than a grumble. See, there I go again!!
I bought it two years ago and STILL
haven't worn it. Okay, so he is
right. Just this once.
I fall in love with yarn A LOT! My stash is filled with yarn like these 12 skeins
of Sock It To Me. I will not be using them
for a long time, but they were a must-have purchase and I'm standing by
them. Five years from now I may need
some of that yarn for a hat or scarf OR SOCKS!
Anyway, my yarn is like my children, I can't give it away and I have to
love it no matter how difficult to handle it becomes!
Do you fall in love too easily? When I say that about myself, DH reminds me
that I had dates with two other guys on the same night as our first date. I was just hedging my bets and again, I’m not
talking about guys. Not the same thing
at all! On the other hand, the three
dates in one night thing didn’t work out any better than the bronze
jacket! Those other two guys still will
not speak to me, and they have a chance at times because their wives are
friends of mine. The wives laugh about
it but the guys still don’t think it was is funny. But that’s another post….
Life is good.

Cute post. And do you have at least three outfits those shoes would work with? If so, buy 'em!
I never had more than one date on a given day, because in high school, when call waiting was brand new... you know where this is going, don't you? ;) Lesson learned... about boys anyway.
Shoes and dresses are another story.
Hey, buying yarn is only one of my vices, or is it a virtue? It's a fine, fine line.
