After two weeks of non stop projects (pics tomorrow) I rewarded myself with an order to Connecting Threads. Mostly thread and some more batting but i did get free shipping! So why do i sit here now feeling guilty? It must be sewers remorse. But i will use all that i ordered so it's okay isn't it? LOL

I definitely reward myself. But usually it is WITH my sewing and ordering. No need to feel guilty at all!

Eating and quilting are my only 2 vices. I refuse to feel guilty when I place an order. Enjoy waiting for the delivery:)

DH and I feel what we wanted came before what the kids wanted but not before what they needed so I have no guilt at all treating myself when I can.

It's not like you are buying something you won't use or something that's just wrong to have. Enjoy your order and the fun you will have using it.

If you know you're going to use it, and it definitely sounds like you will, don't feel guilty. I think it's definitely a thing many of us women deal with - guilt. I'm feeling guilty because I'm sick and had to tell a friend I couldn't keep a commitment for tomorrow night. It's crazy and a waste of time.
