Computers are grand, but the sound of a fountain pen scratching on paper (yes, I have a lot of fountain pens) is delightful on a quiet night. We used fountain pens in school before we were allowed to use those horrid, cheap ballpoints (which the teacher thought were terrible for penmanship).<br /><br />Blessings and Bear hugs!<br /><a href="http://bears-noting.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Bears Noting</a>Rob-bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00171692478879522588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914384080646206545.post-34158265739976651682013-04-19T06:00:12.560-06:002013-04-19T06:00:12.560-06:00Hi Tina ..

When I have them, I HAVE to draw on something. Its like I can't help myself. I don't know why.<br /><br />I got new supplies basically every year. I would always run out of things by the end of the year and reuse what I had from the year before, or even just when I was playing. You should have seen my collection of pencils and crayons though.

The disappoint was always you bought exactly what the teacher requested, your child took care of things, loved their supplies; but they're collected on day one at school and dumped into a group supply thing. That covers the people who don't buy them, and so there is no ownership of the beautiful supplies. My DD is almost 30, but I still enjoy buying notebook paper, pens and pencils myself. lol<br /><br /><a href="http://oozingoutmyears.blogspot.com/2013/04/polygamy.html>A-Z</a>Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141251905909903805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914384080646206545.post-33024304034297016872013-04-18T07:38:58.811-06:002013-04-18T07:38:58.811-06:00ooh, I am a school supply junkie too.
