My birthday was earlier this week. I celebrated by arting and am planning on going out for a huge Capricorn birthday dinner with friends tonight.
I also just spent a bunch of money ordering art supplies. I know better and I really shouldn’t have done it, but I couldn’t help it. I just had to. Maybe it would help to think of it as a birthday present? I got some yummy water color paper, with the intention of making a few more books. I also got some book board and a new block of bees wax (for waxing thread). My 1/4″ hole punch is chewed to pieces (and is missing the extender thingy that you’re supposed to wack on), so I ordered a replacement for that. It sure doesn’t seem like much bang for the buck, but damn is paper ever spendy. You can eat up a couple hundred dollars fast on just a few sheets of the stuff.
I didn’t even look at painting and drawing supplies, since I knew I’d totally lose my mind. See, I do have a little bit of self control!
