Hi...my name is Suzy and I'm a (developing) yarnaholic.  I am an addict...obsessed with all things yarn.  It is my crack and Jessi is a B-A-D influence on me!!  LOL  Over the Memorial day weekend, I went to Coralville and spent Saturday with Jessi.  It was my 12th anniversary.  I spent it playing with yarn, not my husband.  I'm bad, I tell you...addicted to yarn crack.  Of course, Bubba and I had a lovely evening together to celebrate 12 years of love and marriage, so at least he wasn't totally ignored.  Besides, he spent our anniversary playing Call of Duty and thought I was only gone two hours, not the eight hours I was really gone - so we both had fun, which set the tone for a great weekend. (Disclaimer: we were supposed to spend the day on the golf course, enjoying our anniversary TOGETHER, but his shoulder injury flared up and his doctor ordered him to take it easy for a few days, which meant no golf.  So, he would have spent the day playing that blasted video game whether I was home or not)

These are some of my recent acquisitions...I love the pretty colors - they entice me to spend money and I just can't resist. 

 

 Bubba made me a cool new tool to use to help me with my yarn winding...a yarn swift from pvc.  I eventually want a beautiful wooden one that can mount to the wall and a table, but I will have him do that after we are set up in the new house.  Besides, I have NO space in this house for a table-top swift, so this floor model is perfect - and it easily comes apart for storage.  This works wonderfully and cost less than $20 (which means more $$ for my habit!!)
