Fall in Florida!



I love this time of year in Florida! It's starting to get cool enough that you can open the windows and let the crisp, fresh air come into your house! You can also wear long sleeves and sweaters again without sweltering! Last night it got down in the lower 60's and we slept with the windows open. It was so nice! Today even though it's in the mid 80's, it's low humidity and we opened up all the windows in the house.

This morning Doug took me garage saling which was really nice as it was rather cool before noon. It was the perfect weather for it! We actually hit some really good sales and got some really good bargains! My find of the day? A bunch of brand new yarn (most of it still in bands) for $5!!!! I could not believe my luck! I was actually quite proud of myself! She had 2 other boxes of yarn (at $5 each) and I only took the box of stuff I knew I would use! The other boxes had thread, sport yarn and some other yarn items I knew I just wouldn't use so not only did I actually use a little discipline, for the first time ever (that I can think of) my hubby was actually happy for me and didn't say something like "where are you going to put more yarn?" like he has in the past!

Here's a pic of it!!!



You can't tel from the pic, but on the left hand side, that is a bag FULL of lion brand wool-ease! I think there are like a dozen skeins of the same color in there! That alone was worth $5!!!
