Realizations and Good News
I knew I had a lot of scrapbooking supplies, but I didn't realize how many I had until I started trying to put them into some kind of order. I had to buy a second filing cart for my 12 x 12 paper, and I imagine I will be organizing stickers and die-cuts into the next century. If I'm lucky.
I discovered something a bit more disturbing last week. I tend not to watch the news, so I don't always learn about things right when they happen. So this week, I'm eating lunch with my coworkers and they mention the new thing with credit cards that will increase payments in January. To say that this is disturbing is an understatement. I understand that it will help people get out of debt, but it will be problematic for me.
Good thing I have cut back on book buying sprees.
So it looks like I will be stepping up my candle business a bit and trying to come up with other ways to earn money. I don't want to take a part-time job, but I might have to consider it depending on how high payments go. I absolutely must have my garage sale next spring. Not only will it bring in a little money, it will also help with the clutter.
Anyone want to buy any candles? LOL!
Enough of that for now. My good news: my 2005 NaNoWriMo entry is more or less complete at 50, 111 words. If I want to do something with it, it would need a lot of revision, but I'm still enjoying the fact that I met the goal. Yay!

Great job on reaching the Nano goal! Ahead of schedule too :)
Congrats on reaching your goal.
oooh..you've been out of the loop. I think the credit card minimum payment increase has been talked about for months. Doesn't affect me (we pay it off in full each month), but I can see how it would trouble some people.
Congratulations! That's a huge achievement. - Charlene www.charleneteglia.com
