Do your duty today

I don't care if you are RED or BLUE or somewhere else entirely on the color wheel, PLEASE get out and vote.
I know the lines will be long, so bring a book or shock your neighbor in line and say Hi.
I know you think your vote won't count, well maybe it won't, but you never know.
You'll never know if you could have, should have, if only you would have voted.
That is all I'll say on this topic.
Go and do.


(There you go Amber, consider it updated)

framing buttons

here are a few of my latest projects:

1: Found this in the basement and spray painted it copper.
I'm going to put it above my desk to hold do-das.

2. I found these picture frames for 99 cents and painted them copper.
I'm going to put my favorite pictures in them and group them in a series of nine.


3. Jason and I decided that it was about time we put some of my pictures on the wall, so that is precisely what I am doing.
These are of the RER train in Paris.

4. I am actually going to put more pictures on this wall, but they are all going to be of pictures I took in Pere Lachaise Cemetery in Paris. I think there is going to be 10 in all.
(don't worry, you'd never know I took them in a cemetery)


5. My mom got me 2 cards of buttons that they used to use in the stores and I loved them so much that I decided to frame them. LOVE THESE! Thanks Mom.

Daylight savings

I love fall.
The crisp air.
The leaves changing colors.
The wind blowing the leaves through the streets.
I love it.
What I do not love is how fast it gets dark.
The sun sets at 7:30pm.
The sun rises at 7:50am.
Over 12 hours of darkness....ahhhh.
The only benefit of the sun rising so late is that I actually get to see it rise.
I love the morning sun.
There is something so fresh. So innocent. So new about the morning sun.

Thanks girls I had a ton of fun with the two of you!

customer service

I have been a Verizon Wireless customer for quite a few years now and I couldn't be happier with my service.

I'm not just talking about my cell phone service, more importantly I am talking about the customer service.

I don't think I have ever had to wait more that 30 seconds to talk to a representative on the phone.

I have never get off the phone wanting to tear my hair out because my questions didn't get answered, or wasn't heard by the customer service representative.

In fact I just got off the phone with their customer service because for quite a while now my phone keeps dying.

It will keep a charge all day long, just as long as I don't talk on it.

What is the purpose then of having cell phone if I can't talk on it???

I don't really know.

So I called.

And I'm getting a NEW, FREE cell phone on Friday.

Whoo hooo!

Thanks Verizon

Day 5

On Monday morning, I made the big step to change my life.

I couldn't be happier.

Even being sick for about a week can't ruin my mood.

I can't remember the last time I had resolve as strong I have had this past week.

I haven't broken any promises to myself.

I am really truly happy, and I know that is because I am finally doing what is right for myself.

I have a TON more to say, but little time to do it right now.

Have a great weekend!
