Spending resolutions for Q1

Ok, we've entered the toughest year of the re-education process. No more stock options to cash in, no more co-op semesters to bolster the savings account.

So, to help out our weakened bank account - and to cut down on clutter in my house - I pledge to not spend any money in these places at least through March:

• Ben Franklin's
• JoAnn Fabrics
• Grinny Possum Yarn Store
• The Knit Nook
• Dee's - fortunately I have to make a special trip to this place
• Michael's
• Hobby Lobby
• Baer Fabric - with the one exception of spending $1 on buttons to finish a Christmas ornament
• Hancock's

I also pledge not to buy anything on these Web sites:

• WeeWonderfuls - I need to use the Stitchettes and Robot patterns that I already have
• FutureGirl - I need to make Octophrost and the other cool patterns I bought from her
• Etsy - no yarn, no other handmade goodness

I have to admit to a little extra Web shopping December to make my January pledge easier.

I got rid of 3 bags of fabric over the last month or so and I have two boxes of yarn that I haven't done ANYTHING with.
If I organize all the other crafty stuff I have, I shouldn't need to buy anything til at least June.

Wish me discipline and time to create instead of buy!
