An Addiction?<font face="Arial">My oldest son, Ted, stopped by the house yesterday afternoon. Wayne had set a heavy box by the basement door, and Ted offered to take it downstairs for him. I noticed he was gone a good ten minutes.<br />
<br />
When he returned he came to me and said, “Mom, we need to talk.” <br />
<br />
He was so serious I was immediately concerned. “What’s the problem?” <br />
<br />
“It’s your yarn, Mom.” <br />
<br />
“My yarn?” <br />
<br />
“You have a lot of yarn down there.” <br />
<br />
“Yes, well . . . it is my yarn room.” Okay, I’ll admit, some of the yarn has bled out into other areas of the furnished basement. I’ve been sorting colors , and there are a few books here and there and more than one pattern scattered about. It has been on myTo-Do List to get down there and clean everything out, but I've been so busy with other things. <br />
<br />
“I think we need to do an intervention.” <br />
<br />
“An intervention?” I cried. Now really, that was carrying it a tad too far. <br />
<br />
“Mom,” Ted said, still serious. “You need a twelve-step group.” <br />
<br />
Can’t you see it now? Me, at a large meeting, standing up and admitting to everyone present, “Hello, my name is Debbie, and I buy yarn.” </font>

She’d heard rumors of my legendary stash and wanted to view it for herself. I have filled the shelves of one entire room, and it’s spilled out into another. The way I figure it, if I don’t buy a single skein more and knit for around 30 years, I might possibly use up my stash. </font></div>

<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><font size="3">While she was here, Christina did a podcast that we hope to post on both our websites. (I believe she’s aiming for sometime in November, so look for it.) It was a wonderful afternoon and inspirational, as well. There’s nothing like getting two writers together who share a passion for yarn.</font> </div>
