So, what does the average woman buy when she gets a bit of money for Christmas? Clothes? Make-up? Jewellery? Perfume? Shoes?

My niece generally buys clothes or puts it towards a holiday. My sister almost always buys a new handbag, one of those expensive ones.

Me? I bought a small meteorite...

Wonder what that says about me 0_0

Guess I'll never be the average woman!

Oh that's fantastic! We have some things in common. I must admit I have not got into a lot of Egyptians or folklore. I have watched shows in the past about haunted houses, people filming them or people living there hearing strange sounds at different times that they can't explain. I wish I read more actual books on paper. I would at times and then get away from them. I always felt good when I read, smarter...lol! My best friend in highschool to this day reads everything she can get her hands on. She was an "A" student. I was "average" not dumb just probably could have done a little better. I made B's and C's "mostly" :/

Oh I wish I had a team of people who could come to my house and make me get rid of clutter, stuff I don't use, wear, video VHS tapes!...never watch them anymore and I have one of those HUGE radios from the 80's, 90's that you can barely pic up with 2 tape decks, a CD player, and detachable speakers. Oh my gosh! It has set and collected dust for like 13 years! Never use it anymore. Digressing again...I would like them to just clean everything out, dust clean out all the cobwebs+...(you don't want to know) and then arrange everything neatly maybe put up shelves if there is room to store some things on. I know I am dreaming...no money for that + I think when they saw our house, they would run away screaming!

I wish I had a hobby like you have. Truthfully I hate any kind of sewing even putting buttons back on shirts though I do it. Right now I need to fix a shirt Alex needs that is unraveling on the sleeve. I think I can fix it. About all I have ever done.

I have some stuff I bought on ebay like collections of "The X-files" TV show and "Lord of the Rings," but I just can't part with most of it. Maybe some bookmarks since I rarely read. LOL! How sad I know.

Have to go darnit! Husband wants me to go with him and my son to the park. Alex wants to ride his new bike and Michael is making me get out of the house where I hide. lol!

Talk again soon. :D

*Giggles* We only de-cluttered (a bit) because we needed to make room for the workmen to work - new windows, rewiring, an actual fitted kitchen... We couldn't afford it, but we managed to get a government grant which gets paid back when the house is sold. Our wiring was ropy and we didn't have enough sockets, the windows were wood and the frames rotting and nearly falling out, and we han no work surfaces in the kitchen at all and hardly any storage space. Still not much storage, but the worktops are brilliant and we have double glazing finally. Most of our stuff is in storage, but we're still cluttered and in a mess. I can't motivate myself to sort anything just yet - still too tired.

Oh, I HATE sewing, I was useless at school. I can sew on buttons, but that's about it. I love doing cross stitch though - I end up with something pretty and all I have to do is follow a chart! I'm also a keen knitter, though I haven't done much for a few years as I made myself so many sweaters and cardigans. I can do macrame (tying knots, basically. Have you seem the wols I make? There are pictures on my journal somewhere) and I make earrings, which is pretty easy except it can be hard on the eyes when working with small beads. I just like making things =) I have pierced ears so I make dangly earrings that I would wear myself.

I have books on hauntings and things like that too. I've never seen a ghost, but my mum and my aunt both have been visited by deceased relatives.

*hugs* Have fun!
