8) when you keep a notepad by the bed to write down ideas that come to you as you drift off to sleep.:)

9) Whenever you pass a yard sale or thrift shop you simply MUST stop and look for tufa molds, and when your SO loses track of you in a departmnt store, they know to look in the plastic ware aisle....

I second, third and fourth all of the above, and add one of my own. You know you're addicted to 'tufa' when you work in a thrift store 2 days a week and worry about that perfect tool or mold you may miss out on the rest of the week.

You just dry your hair in the barn because that is where the hair dryer is (used for unmolding tufa), and when your DH asks why, you say 'it's just easier to leave the hairdryer out here..."

Yes, this happened this morning. DH gave me a look and quickly departed for work.
