$$$ out

It is shaping up to be a truly expensive week. I dropped large chunks of cash on business stuff-- gems, shipping materials, design. I'm planning on buying a digital camera by the end of the week. I still have to buy more sterling chain and another oz. of silver wire. I am compiling another order for more leaves (and some silver ones!).

And of course, the weather is changing. All of my sweaters are getting old and stretched out. My winter coat's lining is torn up, the wool is pilled, the cuffs are getting ratty, and it's time for a new one. So I also just charged a sizeable amount on a new peacoat in lipstick red. I had hoped to be able to find a plum color I liked, but the style I liked the most came in red. Good enough for me. A couple of pairs of jeans (since my favorite pair split straight up the tush earlier this week). A few of snuggly sweaters in thick, comfy marl.

Now, to find the time to freaking clean my room so it'll be suitable for work until J & I move. And paint my toenails. And send out my care package. And...

This having two full time jobs at the same time thing is hard. I will be happy again when it's a full and a part-time one.
