While Spook was fishing today, we went to the recycling centre. More for some real support of our economic situation, than the old brouse-around. I bought a $70 school jumper, a long sleeved school shirt, (thinking of winter coming), long socks to keep Finn's smelly feet at bay, track suit bottoms for school, a couple of nice linen shirts (wearing one in picture), a set of scales that don't work, (at least I bloody hope not at THAT weight), a personal organisor for Meg, (as if she needs one when she has me!!!!)....all for $25. The crotch of the tracky bottoms needs a bit of sewing and I found a big hole in the socks. I just thought that if someone had gone to the bother of recycling them, they were worthy of doing so. Luckily, I have darning skills. Spook was very scathing, but with a tennis ball, needle, some wool and 'golden hands', there was no stopping me. Please do double click on the picture to admire the results.
