Bubble wrap, the best stress buster

I don’t see that they’re turning this into something about food, but okay. I still think it’s (sometimes) fun to get new office supplies.Hello Cathy clan!

I used to live just around the corner from a shop that had frequent sales of stationery – A4 paper, bundled pens, reporter’s notebooks, lovely A4 binders in glowing colours – and I’m afraid I was a bit of a stationery junkie. Even though I hadn’t run out of paper, I would buy some just in case, while it was reduced in price . . .

That was thirty years ago now. And some of those pads of paper are still new and untouched! I may not ever have to buy paper again in my lifetime. You see – there’s always a bonus.

Can’t say as I’ve ever gotten excited over office stationary but you should see me every time I enter a bookstore or score a great deal on a cross stitch kit I’ve been coveting for the longest time. I’m absolutely, positively in utter HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!! ;-)

Hi, rgcviper!

Hello and Happy Wednesday, fellow “Cathy” fans. Hope everyone had a really nice day today.

For me it’s yarn — my husband installed cabinets with glass doors, so I now have a whole wall of pretty yarns.

rgcviper – I meant to say that I loved the link you shared yesterday… hysterical!!! :-)

OK—I’m cutting both of them off. But, on second thought, I probably shouldn’t, since I don’t want to get trampled / flattened.

@lightenupHappy you enjoyed the link with the Post-It notes. Pretty good, huh?

And for all you fans of bubble wrap today, maybe you’d enjoy the online version. You’re welcome.

HI, MOM. Hello, “Cathy” Clan.
