New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red, |

Still round the corner there may wait |

Home is behind, the world ahead, |
No doubt.
Heh...no, I already have a grey pair.
The red ones are just so neat. But, like red Chucks, I don't need 'em. I got my blue Chucks 'cause I needed a pair of everyday sneakers.
But my milk bottle I got yesterday...that was a whim. I allow myself to indulge a whim for a buck or two, but not usually much more than that.
Except of course the Beetle is a big expensive whim...but hopefully I'll have a CAR out it someday!
I'll probably go take a look at the feed store down the street.
At least to have a reference point, you know?
You're better than I am. I got into buying mode this weekend. I *needed* to buy mandolin strings (the ones on my mandolin are getting old enough they aren't staying in tune), but then I ordered a couple of used CDs and a book and other stuff from Amazon, too.
The book and the CDs are religious ones, and I'd *like* that to be justification, but it isn't really. ;-)
Oh well. I'm still OK on money, and I can use a few things to look forward to right now.
That's a good idea...
I know what you mean...my little third quart milk bottle is sitting in my kitchen window and I just love to look at it!
But that's also a hobby. Hobbies are...different from whims. Kinda. ;-)
Heh...you'd be shocked likely at how much my family has sunk into musical instruments and accessories over the years. Books and music.
But really, I don't regret buying my instruments. There's a point of diminishing returns, of course, where you end up paying for "jewelry"...but buying well made, nice sounding instruments isn't a bad investment, I don't think.
I almost got a deer.
I don't want a deer.
Oh no! Instruments are timeless!
I should put my whistles in my cedar chest...
Oh deer...
>>I almost got a deer.
Oh my!
I gotta go...Steve'll be home any minute...
See you in the morning!
A deer miss. Although Hair and ecurbh would have gotten the worst of it. Hate those darters.
Deer playing chicken?
Glad you guys are all right!
See ya, 2J!
She darted right out of the woods and almost got the passenger side doors.
YIKES!!
Don't like those darters. I prefer my deer standing on the side wondering whether to cross or not.
....or marinated and grilled into Bambi bits.
