I haaate when apple pay doesn’t work and I have to type my credit card number in because now I have to actually comprehend the ways in which I am damaging myself financially

#i am not even going to lie to you i have bought a typewriter #in my defence i have been thinking about it for ages. i mean this thing has been in the back of my mind since i heard of it in like… may #maybe june. july? anyway it’s been a while #and realistically yes i need to stop making stupid purchases before someone finds out and does an intervention #but for all i know the next great british novel is percolating in my head and i will make my money back #and if not.. at least i can ban myself from buying notebooks and that’ll save me some money #i do have an idea to declutter. i’m going to sell and donate all my surplus knitting needles #basically i will try to donate them first but i doubt anyone will take all of them so i’m going to try vinted and other such places #how will i package these? that remains to be seen #i have. all my grandma’s old needles. my stepdad’s mom’s old needles. my stepdad’s ex-mother-in-law’s old needles #some of my neighbour’s mom’s old needles; some of my godmother’s mom’s old needles; and also needles i myself bought when i was like 16 #and price point was the only thing i looked at #i’m talking like well over a hundred pairs of knitting needles; some straight some circular and a lot of dpns #none of them seem to be in coherent sets with regards to material or length so uhhh that’s fun #honestly i think i’m just going to get everything but my chiaogoo needles and anything that isn’t actively in a project out of the house #and then buy chiaogoo interchangeables. and then that’s it. that’s all the needles i need in my life #maybe i will keep some of my knitpro symfonie as well since they were expensive and also i love them. but idk #symfonie would be my first choice for a full set of dpns in every possible size i gotta say. i love symfonie #anyway. so that’s what’s happening here #i also want to organise my notions and crochet hooks because i feel like i buy them then lose them then they turn up and i just end up #with tons. there must be about 20 tapestry needles in this house. how many do i currently have access to? 3 #personal
