Well... Ok.
It's like this...
Uhm... I don't even know where to start. The big H wanted a bass amp.
Great.
Looked around... tried to find one... no luck. Shipping to Alaska is quite possibly more expensive than sending a 20-man team to Mars.
And because I have just started a new craft to keep my mind busy (and yes folks, I will post pictures) I was looking for some beads on Ebay.
Well... about 20 million dollars later and a headache from staring at the screen, I have come to realize that I really am NOT made out of money - but I certainly do Want want want want want want everything there is on Ebay.
I think that I must have some sort of neurosis or something.
OTHER PEOPLE'S JUNK --- well... for some strange odd reason, it INTERESTS me.
I spent hours and hours and egads, I don't know, maybe a few more hours than that - looking at absolutely nothing but other people's things. And it was enlightening to know that I wanted it. For what reason? I couldn't begin to even explain it - not to you... Not to myself.
I don't have any room in my house right now - everything from the campground is everywhere still. (If you haven't read about our wild night Tree ride from heck, read a couple posts down. It was quite amusing... sort of. *GRIN*)
And everything is still damp. And because it's still raining here, and humid, we can't put it away until it is completely dried or it will mold.
So hanging where my pretty underthings should be are sleeping bags, woolen blankets, pillows, canvas bags... I sort of feel like we just went through a natural disaster. I mean, boxes everywhere piled. You have to understand: we literally move our whole house - minus the furniture... and well maybe some of that goes too... when we go camping. So when we left until daylight and the tarp was ripped and the rain decided to dump during those few hours... well - everything in the tent got wet.
I've never had an adventure like this before - so it ranks up there on the amusing scale. But the navigation in some areas of the house - well - it's also amusing.
Anyhow... Back to Ebay.
I actually bought a bunch of beads. A LOT OF BEADS.
And I got a Tanzanite stone (loose) for 12.00 with shipping and handling. I have NO earthly idea what I'm going to do with a Tanzanite stone. But like I said - I like other people's junk (as if I don't have enough of my own junk!!!!)
I bought the beads to make jewelry - because that is my new profession.
I'm finding that beading necklaces, bracelets and earrings is very creative. Also very expensive.
And this is the broke month until next month.
Oh - but I did find a smashing deal on a bass amp for the Big H.
Don't tell him - but I bought someone else's junk for him too!
I hope he likes it as much as I do!
Anyhow - toodles until I decide to type out something when I'm bored again.
Take care!
