Credit Card Bonanza - Lead Me Not Into Temptation!!
What is up?? I read in the news about all the bank failures and the tight credit and the government bajillion dollar bail out...
I'm paying my bills today and while paying my plastic bill notice that my bank has RAISED my credit limit $4,500!!
I'm used to this tricky little move every year about this time to suck me in to charging holiday gifts...but $4,500!!??
Its like smelling pot on the wind for this old herbal farmer...stopped me cold...I WANNA SPEND IT!!
Leather kilts, hand sewn wool kilts, ACCESSORIES!!!!
Wait, maybe a trip to Skye!!
Self-restraint?? What's that?? I'm a gutter kilt junkie with margin on his plastic!
Maybe just one of those build it yourself sporrans from L&M Highland...
How am I ever gonna avoid a tartan overdose here....breathe into it....no wait, that's huffing....I think I can smell those RKilt leather swatches...where's my wish list!!??
Doesn't the bank realize I'm OLDE and will probably croak before I can pay off the plastic???
Oh boy...what a pickle....what would Hamish do? Oh dear or dear What would Hamish do?
Let see $4,500 would buy about nine more hand sewn kilts...okay, maybe just eight, leave some for accessories....
Inverness cape...a wool Inverness cape would be nice with winter coming on....
And I don't have every color of the Lewis Kilt hose yet...still a few to go....
Oh the insanity of it all!!

Maybe I'll just use the five weeks vacation time I have built up and go back to Little Beach, Maui....
