I am addicted to tools. Big power saws, little tiny jewellery hammers, even an eyelet setter can get my heart racing. And the more universal attachments for a tool, the more I want it, even if I don’t know what all the attachments are for. Knowing this, Colin wisely skipped the traditional necklace and earrings gift and bought me a brilliant circular saw for being the “best woman” (Is that what you call a female best man?) at his wedding.
I just bought a new one – a universal multi-tip thingy for woodburning. I bought it last night on Adam‘s floor hockey night so I could sneak it into the house and he wouldn’t laugh at yet ANOTHER useless tool purchase.
“But Chantelle, don’t you already HAVE a woodburner?”
“Well, yes, but THIS one has a soldering tip too!”
“But isn’t that your Soldering Iron over there?”
“Yes, but this one has a hot knife attachment!”
“What’s hot knife?”
“I don’t know.”
I’m such a sucker.
