Distracted and Disorganised!
I seem to be getting increasingly unorganised - must be an age thing, or something! Anyway usually I go charity shop trawling on a Tuesday, but I was busy yesterday so decided to go today. The joy of being unemployed between jobs is that I can dedicate a day just for thrifting. But today I decided to combine that with getting a few "necessaries" - like new black trousers and bread. Even made a list - that's how organised I was at the beginning.
As the charity shops have been rubbish recently, I thought this would be dead easy! But that wasn't to be .... every charity shop I went into had quite a few goodies on display which totally threw me and I spent ages rummaging - I got this lovely woollen tweedy fabric.
Think I will make a cushion and a bag with it - love the colour combination.
I don't drive, so everything I get I have to lug home on the bus, so I grudgingly passed over some lovely goodies, knowing that I had other stuff to get. Black trousers - easy, right? No - well, not for me anyway. Forgot about them till I had already been in a couple of shops, so tried trusty M&S - straight leg, bootleg, etc - how's a girl to decide? My mind was still on the little bits and pieces I had seen in the charity shops and I was so distracted!
Halfway round the town I couldn't find my list - must have dropped it! When I got home I discovered that I had got the chocolate biscuits, but no bread! The birthday card, but no stamps!
I used to be so organised! Never mind - I'll got back out tomorrow to see if any of the cs treasures I passed by today are still there. Oh, and yes, get black trousers and bread!
Hope you are more organised than me!
Love, Liz

Like the new fabric. xx
The fabric is lovely, can't wait to see it made into a bag.
Thanks for your comments on my blog, it's very quiet over there at the moment so keep up the good work!

Loose a shopping list? No, never - It's always on the kitchen worktop! (Sadly, I'm in the shop)
Love the fabric.I hope you find some nice goodies next time.Our CS looked very depleted when I popped in yesterday.Just as well really, as I'm running out of space for all my finds.
Oh..and don't mention shopping for trousers...nightmare!! :0)
