A Brighter Day

So I had a slightly better day but my bank account did suffer a little, not big time but did buy myself two bags from oxfam, I loved the colour of this one below,

Brand new bag 
I'll probably find out that it is from some one like Primark and could have brought it for a pound but hey it made me smile.

I also recieved my parcel from Get knitted including my addi needles but also some sock yarn. I agree with Jill and Yvonne if only we could get parcels from Get Knitted from the NHS I'm sure there would be a lot less people on medication.
Then to my suprise another parcel arrived I forgot that I had also ordered yarn from Web of Wool.

and more sock yarn 
Now anybody who knows me knows that I suffer from one sock syndrome so why I ordered more sock yarn I'll never know but I did fall in love with some socks on Dawns blog so ordered this yarn so I could make my own version.

and the final ball of sock yarn 

I also found out the benefits of being a youth worker for 18years as one of my kids (not actually a kid but a very nice 23 year old) works at our local library, well the last time I had a library card I was 13 and never returned some books so I never went back but she encouraged me to return and I now have my new library ticket and spent a wonderful time browsing through an Andy Goldsworthy book which always makes me smile.
