People often come into my house and comment on how much stuff I have, which is true. However, when I tell them that I do:
Sewing therefore have a sewing machine, over-locker and sewing equipment
Cooking so lots of cooking equipment including electrical appliances
Preserving fruits in jars and jams, and all the equipment that entails
Dehydrating fruits in an electric dehydrator
I have equipment for recording VHS video tapes, cassette tapes and vinyl records onto my computer
I spend a lot of time working on my computer
I love to do a little garden and put fresh herbs into my food
They start to understand why I have so much stuff.
Yes, not all of these things are easy to learn. They take time and persistence, but they can also be very rewarding and can save you a lot of money in the long run.
So instead of looking out of a tunnel at what other can do, why not try something new. Learn one new thing every month or two. Expand your mind, creativity, and knowledge. You never know where it may lead you.
Until next time – remember, safety first!
