What an amazing man and an amazing statement.

The power of being in the public eye. And why soccer is so influential on the world stage.

I love John Oliver and I hate everything else in this entire segment.  I know I have friends that smoke... al beit occasionally... but it's not just the product that's disgusting but the companies too. This just makes me sick.

This is absolutely fantastic. They can guess where you are from based on one simple question...

My mom posted about my grandmother's quilt that my brother inherited here today.  It reminded me of that sweet sweet woman and how lucky I was to have her and pawpaw. Pawpaw, autocorrect, not PayPal. Anyway, apparently the post took the quilting world by storm.

If you get a moment, read it. The picture alone is worth it. ;-)

See..

And mine is going to need repair one day too.  I'm proud to say that my brother and I have always had our quilts on our beds.

How is this possible in a world where I have to follow step by step instructions in order to made a card and envelope?




(I'm going to go crochet something now.)
(I'm proud of that card.)
(My creative glass ceiling is extremely low.)

Wow, I cannot remember a time when I haven't been on the phone or talking to someone. Everyone has been incredibly encouraging.

Also, I can play my records now!! Squee!!

I've spent the better part of four hours on the phone between yesterday and today. I'm very glad to have peeps to banter/argue/decompress with. You all are my rock stars.

If my phone gets turned off... you'll know why. ¦;)

My church paid me $20 to watch kids over the holidays. I'm pretending that they said, "Thank you for watching our children. May the Lord be with you. Here's a bottle of wine."

Cause that's definitely what I did with the money. And bought a bag of chips. I'm classy that way. ;-)
