*Disclaimer* Mike, if you're reading this I'd recommend you stop reading right here for your own good. Some things are better left unknown in a marriage and this is one of those things. If you do decide to read on, no I don't think I have enough and intend on aquiring more. Do you have enough golf balls? Didn't think so. LOL!! :P
I'm in the lead so far with a nice collection of 10 pairs of stitching scissors, and I fully intend on adding to that! Thanks so much to all of my stitching friends who have sent me such lovely scissors over the past few years. Out of the 10 here, I've only purchased 3. Thanks, girls! I do use all of them, some more than others. I think my favorite pair in the bunch are the stained glass stork scissors, although I do like them all. I only have 3 stitched scissor fobs for them but am hoping to aquire more of them. I like beaded fobs but would really like to have a few more stitched fobs. There are several good things about collecting these.1. They're useful
2. They don't take up much space
3. They're just pretty...lol.
Today was a lot better than yesterday! Of course that may be because I didn't do anything productive. LOL! My Santa Fe needed a new battery so Mike took care of that this morning. Cassie had an orthodontist appt. this morning. It was her last appt. with this Dr. We were both a little sad to say goodbye. He's a really great Dr. and a really sweet man. Hopefully when we move we'll find one that's just as good. He printed out a list for me and pointed out who he'd recommend so that was nice. Cassie got her retainer today. Check this thing out! Can you beleive they make retainers like this these days?! It's a ladybug!
She got to pick the design herself and they ordered it for her. She even asked them to add red glitter to it and they did! They even have her name on it! It cracks me up when she puts it in her mouth. It looks like she's eating a ladybug. LOL!!! Isn't it great?! I wonder just how much I paid for that ladybug...LOL!After I took Cassie back to school I met my BF at Taco Bell for lunch. After about 2 hours we figured we'd better leave before they kicked us out LOL! I could just sit and talk to her for hours. I'm really gonna miss that *sigh*.
Oh, I almost forgot to mention that we sold our house last night! I'm really relieved that we did so quickly! Our realtor in Virginia just called a bit ago though and did not have good news for me. The house we're buying has an issue with the roof and the owner doesn't wanna fix it :(. We're not asking him to replace the roof, just fix the areas that need to be fixed. I just had a chat with her and she's gonna insist that he fix it. Ordinarily I'm not too bothered about these things but our inspector said there are 2 holes above the attic. I do have a problem with that. Hopefully he'll give in and get it fixed. The stinky thing here is that he and his soon to be ex have to agree on everything. If one says ok let's fix it and the other doesn't then that's a whole other problem. It would be my fine luck we'd move in and then the roof would cave or something. The house was built in 88 and the inspector said it looks like the original roof...*sigh*
Thanks for stopping in and I do hope that you enjoyed looking at my scissors..lol. Anyone have more than me? I'm almost betting money that my stitching friend Rachel does..lol.

Those scissors would not be a good addition to this household! Those could become weapons for the princess to use on the boy! LOL! I have to collect things like pillows...no wait, you can suffocate someone with those! Ok, stamps sound safe! ;-)
Guess we should all photograph our scissors and fobs, eh? And maybe a fob exchange is in order? I could use a few more for my naked scissors. Love that Ladybug, too. Wish they had been as cute and colorful in my day.
ROFLMAO - Well Jen, I think you're right - I think I have at least double that amount of scissors - I really have a serious problem with them! Maybe I can work on collecting them together this weekend - most are in project bags.
Congrats on the sale of your house!! And I hope the roof issue gets worked out for your new one.
lol... I suppose you've read that I have NONE! Nada. Zip. Zero cross stitch scissors! Only craft, cheap scissors! I'm too cheap and probably would misplace them if I had them! It is/was a fun conversation with the group.
