What do you do when you get extra money you weren't expecting? Be it birthday or Christmas money, gift cards, a tax refund, an inheritance, or whatever... Do you buy the big things you couldn't buy before, or do you just use it to...

kattghoti Agreed. When I found out about my (way bigger than it should be) tax return, I decided immediately that 2/3 was going toward my debt. 1/3 is almost three months worth of student loan payments! That's pretty significant.

I started working on a dress from Simplicity Threads pattern 4072, but I have hit a snag. The bodice piece doesn't line up with the neck band. I've lined up all the seams and the notches, and still there are major gaps where one...

kattghoti The odd part is that both pieces are too big in different places. The part I'm working on is banding around the neckline. The band is too big on the sides, and the bodice is too big at the back of the neck. I think I'm just going to have to play around with...

kattghoti That's a good point--save on the stuff that doesn't mean as much, then you'll have money left over for the really great stuff.

kattghoti I wonder what it is that makes people NEED to spend money as soon as they have it. It's really hard for most people to save and be conservative.

kattghoti That's definitely a good reason to save! It's easier to save when you have some sort of incentive. Like they say, you can't take it with you, so it makes just as much sense to spend it!

kattghoti I think that I would have to answer that print or cursive with much thought. Then again, I tend to over think things, and I rarely am black or white about matters... Usually pretty grey!

I am a regular at my local library, so most of my reading material is 'borrowed'. When I do buy books I usually buy hardbounds, and books that are worth keeping and adding to my specialized collection. What about you?

I might date myself, but does anyone remember these two series. I know I sure do! I just felt like going back down memory lane. I probably read at least 20 books out of each series during late elementary and early middle school.

kattghoti I still have all my American Girls books. I read every book through the Addie series, even if I didn't own them. I also still have the Felicity doll--she's very proudly displayed. I think I would maybe hunt down all the other books I don't own. American Girls...

If anyone ever needs help with a project, just let me know and I will try to give some advice. I sew for myself and others. I have also made things from scratch.

kattghoti Are you 100% certain everything is threaded correctly? Also, my tension gets off when my thread pops out of the tension disks, so check those.

When I was in school I used a book called Metro for writing prompts. Now I really don't want to spend $60 for writing prompts, so I'm wondering if anyone has websites they recommend for writing or journaling prompts.

kattghoti Mornings and I don't get along. I get up only early enough to eat and get ready for work, and I refuse to get up any earlier! Even for the sake of writing. I've also always felt way too much pressure with the "just write" business. It's just like whenever...
