Despite the rain, I didn't give up my original plan of going to the craft supply discounter and did some comfort shopping, spending way more money than originally intended. Now I have chenille wires in the most lovely, striped hues, and lots of wooden beads that will serve as heads and hands of various handmade puppets. I think I've covered my needs for years in that area. No actual crafting got done, but arranging one's supplies is important, too, right? Besides, I did a lot of writing, so there's that.
