Quick thoughts...
+ Happy birthday to Isaac! He is now only 12 years away from 40. Hehe. And he is the best husband ever!
+ I feel like I live at Home Depot and Walmart. I've been to each of them at least 4 times this week.
+ I'm trying to laugh at the fact that the first night this week that I finally got enough sleep preceded the one day I really could've used an extra few hours of awake time.
+ Ghirardelli chocolate chips being the same price as Walmart brand makes me very happy.
+ Apparently I've been lusting after cashmere sweaters all these years, when I could've just bought them; there are tons of them for great prices on Ebay! Oh, this is a bad, bad discovery for my budget.
+ 30% cash back on Ebay Buy It Now purchases is love.
+ Can any of you convince me that the quality of photos taken by a DSLR is worth it despite its heft when compared to a good digicam that has all manual options but an attached lens? I love the quality of DSLRs, but I also like having a camera that fits in my purse and doesn't weigh 3 lbs because of the lenses. So, yeah - convince me.
+ Hanging pictures is a lot easier than I thought it was. Therefore, I hate myself for waiting 3 years to do so.
+ I have an unhealthy obsession with soft blankets. And Cherry Coke.
+ 18 people have RSVPed for the party tonight. That is workable, assuming they don't all stay for the debate and want to sit in the living room. (Our dining room is basically just an extension of our living room though, so it'll be fine.)
+ I don't actually believe that it's October. Everyone is lying to me.

I have never had a cashmere sweater...or really touched one. I've always been afraid that I will love them so much that it will make my sweater budget explode. (I am obsessed with jackets and sweaters...)

I had never touched one till I found the one I already own at a thrift store. I touched it and was like, "Holy cow! That is SOFT!" Then I checked the tag and found out why. So that's where I got my J. Crew cashmere cardigan for $4. Hehe. Since then I've wanted more, but it's always so expensive, even on clearance at Old Navy and Target! But Ebay... Ebay rocks my world. You should check there for some. Like, here's a search (http://clothing.shop.ebay.com/items/Womens-Clothing__cashmere-l-large-lg-XL-x-large-extra-large-blend-silk?_nkw=cashmere%20(l%2C%20large%2C%20lg%2C%20XL%2C%20x-large%2C%20extra%20large)%20-blend%20-silk&_fln=1&_fromfsb=&_sacat=15724&_ssov=1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m282&_mPrRngCbx=1&_udlo=&_udhi=7) for cashmere in sizes L and XL ('cause I don't know what size you wear) under $7 (+ shipping) and there are 225 results. One sweater ending in 30 minutes is cashmere and angora (both so soft!) and the bid is $1 right now! Shipping is $6. I'm sure it will go up a bit, but still. It's pretty darn awesome. I ♥ Ebay.
And I'm obsessed with jackets and sweaters too. And soft, beautiful scarves, like this one (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=220282892079), which I own in cream and black. =o)
