Status: April Net Worth will have to wait for now. Too busy with class to put it up.
I have changed my mind, and I will be taking the exam at the end of class, even though it’s not the official Oracle DBA certification exam. I figure I should take it should I decide to get the independent certification offered by the company/school where I am taking the course. Future rewards may follow.
The Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival is this weekend. I am limiting myself to $200 and NO MORE YARN or FIBER buying for now. I am only in the market for some spinning equipment, like extra bobbins or a lazy kate and nothing else unless I see some cute baby stuff for pending births. (But I am currently making stuff like crazy from yarn I already have. See? Isn’t that frugal?)
I just got handed some raw shetland this week. It’s about 2 lbs. To get it milled, I want to mix it with something light, like soy silk to thin it out so it’s not a really heavy yarn. I have something in mind to make for a friend, but men don’t like really heavy wooly stuff usually. So this is going to involve some research. But I love free stuff!

Woot, Sheep and Wool festival! I can’t wait and have already been considering my budgeting plan. Instead of saying “only!” I’m saying “at least”. I go, fall in love with stuff and then get stiff cheap and don’t buy anything. The partner throws money at my to just buy something and I still come home empty handed. I’m thinking that at least $100 to start with and we’ll see how it goes from there.
I can’t wait! We’re leaving tomorrow afternoon. I’m taking $100 and that has to be it – last month was hard on the ol’ pocketbook.
