Jimbo Hook Auction - I may have an addiction

[badrhinogillett]

So, Jimbo has a hook auction going on right now. 4 beautiful hooks. I'm fortunate to own the sizes that he's currently auctioning and with a recent two tire blow out and a sick puppy who had tests at the vet (not to mention Christmas), I have no funds to spend on a hook. HOWEVER, I took a look at the 4 of them and found that I was telling myself, "Oh, but you dont' have one in THAT color!"

 

That's gotta be the sign of an addiction. Is there a 12 step program?

Not sure if there is a 12 step program but if there is SIGN ME UP!

I sent in a bid. I would LOVE to have one..and I have christmas money to spend on ME.

If there is a 12 step program - I want no part of it. I like my addiction! heehee

Aw you guys! You're way too nice to me. But thanks! My hat size just increased again.

You're right! Who am I fooling... I wouldn't go to the meetings either!

I'm staying away from his auctions until I get back from vacation. LOL! They are beyond gorgeous though. My dad carves decoys - so I appreciate the work and talent that has to go into these hooks.

I'm not even going to look. I've been admiring his work for quite a while but just haven't found the funds to get one. And now with a broken wrist that's given me a totally unplanned 2 week vacation, without pay... Hopefully things will be better in 2010.

They are real beauties. I just put a bid on one and I am keeping my fingers crossed that I win the one that I am admiring. DH said it can be my Valentines day present.

If I MUST have an addiction this would be a good one.

 

What harm could come from something so beautifully handcrafted? The only downside I see is thinking the perfect hook is on the way but, just maybe, a hook more beautiful in a different way may come along shortly thereafter.

 

Thank goodness my favorite hook is a G followed closely by H and I, otherwise I could be in as much trouble as the rest of you "addicts".

 

Off to stalk the pumpkin H,,,,,
