I’m at my husband’s office today. You may remember that I’m the Director of Fun here. It’s a position that’s paid in business cards, occasional free lunches, and, of course, fun. They’re making marketing videos for the latest release of their product, so I’m putting my film degree to use as their producer/editor. Unfortunately, somebody (he) ended up double booked …
New Toy Tuesday: Stamps!
The last two days of my life have been devoted to Harry Potter. I made plans to see the 7th movie today, but had never seen the 6th (I know, what kind of fan am I?). So yesterday I walked to Target and bought The Half Blood Prince (because you can’t stream it anywhere online. Thanks HBO.) and watched it. …

New Toy Tuesday: Scoring Board

Today I’m showcasing another tool that I use almost daily: the scoring …
Hobby Shopping

I found out a craft store about 45 minutes from here is going out of business, and they have their entire stock priced at 40% off. I had to go. 40% off. Since I’d already blown through my craft …
