Late spring cleaning

I wasn't really in the mood to go anywhere today so I decided to stay in ad do some late spring cleaning. I'm embarassed to say that it took me a good portion of the day to go through my stitching stuff..LOL! I can't beleive how much stuff I have! It's never ending too. I still think (know) that I need more. It's an addiction I tell ya. I guess I should've said it's a terrible addiction but it's not. It's a wonderful addiction! Don't ask Mike though, he wouldn't agree..lol! Every time he's around and I need to order threads for something, he's amazed that I don't already have them. Little does he know just how many there are out there for me to collect :). Personally, I think he should be counting his lucky stars that I don't care to stitch with silk. Most of those puppies run between $4-$6 per skein. For the most part I stitch with DMC which is $.30 cents a skein here however, I've been finding myself more interested in stitching with Sampler threads and Weeks Dye Works lately. I can't get those here, I have to order them. They're $2 per skein which is a lot better than the $4-$6 per skein of silk but can still add up quickly if you need to buy several for a particular chart. For a while I belonged to a thread of the month club. I'd pay $10 a month and they'd send me 5-7 skeins and this is how I've built up this nice little collection I have. There are SO many colors though, I'm far from completing the collection. This being the reason I'm always having to order. I don't really have to order..I could convert and just use the DMC. The overdyed threads are just so darn pretty! Overdyed threads are to me like balloons or candy are to children...LOL :). I'm feeling a little better today but am still incredibly blue over yesterday's events.
