I coveted her RED pencils. Well I grew up and spent 33 years teaching . I loved having every color marking pen made, and the good excuse for having them. I scoured the Back-to-School advertisement looking for "deals" on exciting folders to buy for my students. Well I've been retired now for 8 years and cannot go into one of the "big box" supply stores without having a tingle of excitement looking at all those glorious colors of markers, folders and stuff. I still have oodles of "office" supplies but I just do not have a justafible excuse for buying !!! them!!! I cannot begin to comment on cameras and lenses...too many to count, but my first teaching paycheck went toward a Minolta SLR 101!!!

I even make my own. Last winter I made so many, I started giving them away as gifts. I even tried making a coptic bound notebook so it would be flat... it was a bomb but I think I'll try it again. I'm a bit of a dork about pens too... love red ones the best! I’m right there with ya on the notebook fetish… I even make my own. Last winter I made so many, I started giving them away as gifts.

I always thought everybody had a lot of notebooks. They certainly are cheaper than shoes! Easier to stack, too. You can never have too many shoes or good cookbooks!

I would say that yarn is my weakness. It's so pretty, I will buy it without a project in mind. I have to stay out of yarn stores. We need to save all the money we can for sending three kids to college! Hi Kasey, I hope the photos in this post mean that your camera survived the water damage.
