I am trying so hard to save money lately, but it is so hard, especially when there are so many things that make me want to spend. the latest temptation is that I really would love to participate in a Make-Along this spring, but don’t know if I can justify spending $60+ on the yarn kit for it (especially when I already have a whole closet-full of yarn from my workplace from when we had a big inventory clear-out last year)

#I’ve never done a make along and I just think it would be super fun?? a fun thing to keep me motivated and give some low-key enjoyment #and a way to destress over the next few months (which are guaranteed to be hectic and stressful)#and there’s a super cool mystery make along gearing up right now that looks really fun #and if I don’t end up liking the finished product I’d be more than happy to gift it to someone else #and there’s both a crochet and knit version of the pattern #and while I would *rather* do the knitted one (I just seem to enjoy knitting more lately for some reason?) the price for that kit is at #least double the price for the crochet one #so I think I could just resign myself to doing the crochet version and it would all be fine. but I’m still stuck trying to figure out if I #can justify dropping $60 for it 🙃#the one thing I’m telling myself could help make it worthwhile is that I really cannot crochet while watching tv as easily as I can knit #but I *can* listen to audiobooks #and my Read The Bible In A Year plan is using an audio Bible #so maybe I could promise myself that I’m only going to listen to my Bible readings while I work on this project and it could be a #good motivator for me?#idk girls. decisions are silly and dumb. love having a free will and all that but sometimes it’s irritating as all get-out.#especially when it comes to these little goofy probably-inconsequential things that I always manage to agonize over forever :P #gurt says stuff
