Stationery Trouble

[Bogon07]

After spending sometime searching for a particular Paperblanks notebook this morning I've realized I may have more than enough notebooks.
I suppose you know there is trouble when you start stacking boxes of stationery on the floor. When you start stacking anything is always a bad sign.
The light grey one on top is full of Rhodia pads.
And here is the Rhodia & Clairfontaine box contents. Many of the Rhodia pads came from the Borders' closing down sale some years ago.

I should post a pic of my Desk top ...

Though mine are mostly travel size journals but I think I have a few to many ... but can you really ever have to many ?

When you don't have room to write in one... yea... you can. :P but until then.

Ok ok ... so I do indeed have too many journals lol ... But I just can bring myself to put them in a box.

Beautiful collection, Mr Bogon! No, you do not have 'more than enough notebooks'. Doesn't look like you've reached SABLE yet, so no worries. Heard this term defined on a recent Pen Addict podcast: Stash Acquisition Beyond Life Expectancy. Cracked me up. And made me feel better about my own stacks of paper. (And, um, bottles of ink.)

There were some other versions too - it took a fair bit of standing about in the shop like a goose comparing them. The blue cats had a "herded" look better than the multicoloured cats.

That was only one of the 7 boxes.
I heard the term SABLE a couple of months earlier from Mrs Bogon in relation to yarn, wool & knitting stuff.
Some of their stuff is unbelievable - entire walls of glass door'd shelving storing yarn. King size beds submerged layers deep in balls of wool.

I'd be a little embarrassed to get them out of all the places I've stuffed them and collect them in one place.

I dream of having that many journals!

Probably off-topic but I have to confess to reaching SABLE on two subjects ... inks and unmade model aeroplane kits. My pens are all going to outlast me as well ...

I think I definitely have more notebooks than you Bogon. And Murfie has only discovered half my stash - so far.........

[VertOlive]

Here in the states, SABLE may be translated into "Prepping" for TEOTWAWKI.

First, you get your secret bunker....

And I've just discovered that migo984's Tomoe River paper stock is definitely SABLE.

And I thought the 4 blank notebooks I have sitting on a shelf in my office was too many!!

But they're pretty! It's a shame to hide them. Lacking a bookshelf, I'd think of some kinda wall-mounted display.

The way things are going on around the planet at the moment, if you change the "know" in TEOTWAWKI to "knew" then I think it might have already happened ...

I AM CERTAINLY AT SABLE IN MANY THINGS!!
