perfectly acceptable

I'm sitting here wondering when it became perfectly acceptable for me to wear socks with a huge hole in them and when did the thought of darning them become my first thought instead of getting into the minivan and driving to Target for a new 6 pack of black socks - like a sane woman would do.


Excuse me while I go count my sugar ration tokens.

It cracks me up how we think of things that we would never do before...and we are actually doing them!

When did that happen to us?? :)

PS--love the new look!!!

What?! Sane women would go buy themsleves new socks? Now that jsut sounds downright INsane! I still wear jeans with splatters of paint on them. Only when I have to run errands. That makes it acceptable right?

I agree. We're bonkers.

I happen to have TWO darning eggs if you're in need.
We could get together for coffee and mending.

When did darning eggs replace Cadbury Eggs in my house?
(When did darning eggs replace Cadbury in my repertoire? Sheesh.)

I love this.
I don't own a single pair of socks without holes and my clothes seem to be going the same way. I am not at all handy in darning (or sewing, knitting... any montherly task like that)and when we shop it's for everyone else!

Mine have a hole in the heel, if that counts :)? Remember, after you have kids, you don't matter. Kidding, of course, but it seems like that some days. And I know you know what I mean!

I'm in love with your new header. It's sexy and sophisticated. You go girl.

And thanks for your more-than-amazing comments lately. They're always some of my very very favourites to read and I can tell you actually read what I wrote and are not doing the token "yeah, that's cool" comment. Wish we lived closer :)
