Stashed

Forgive me dear Goddesses of Rules for I have stashed. I have broken the SFS 2009 contract and have purchased a new canvas. I was doing so well......I had made it through the first quarter of the year without purchasing a single new canvas - not even one. But then it happened - one of the shops had a sale - a really BIG sale - a 40% off sale - not just any 40% off sale but a 40% off of all in stock Kelly Clark canvases. I was doomed. There was no way I could resist that. I grabbed my credit card and sat patiently at my desk waiting for the shop to open so I could place my order. The moon, the stars and all the planets all aligned perfectly and they had the one canvas I wanted in stock AND they had a stitch guide for it. Yippee skippy. I am now the proud owner of the Springtime Topiaries . It should arrive on my doorstep any day now. I think I will sit on the front porch all weekend and wait for Willie (our mailman) to bring me my treat. Forgive my dear Goddesses of Rules for I have stashed and it was fun!

Oh my gosh!

I just opened my blog to add a quick post and found that I have had visitors! AND you've left comments! How cool is that? I usually read your blogs and here you are on mine. Wow. Can you all see me waving at you? Hi! Thanks so much.

My quick post is actually a confession. My local GOR (Goddess of Rules) BT, just had to intervene. I REALLY REALLY wanted to order a new canvas today. I've been eyeing it for awhile and so many shops are having sales....well, you get the picture. Luckily my stitching buddy, MJ was able to get in touch with BT so no rules were broken. According to BT, I have to eat my peas before I can have dessert. That means that I actually have to finish stitching a canvas before I can even consider purchasing anything new. Now, do you see why I need a GOR or two?? No will power at all. Thanks MJ and BT for looking out for me.
