Hello Tuesday...

There is a story I heard someone tell of when they wanted to get rid of a working large appliance - refrigerator or washing machine or something. He put it at the end of his driveway with a "free" sign on it. Sat there for days. So, he changed the "free" sign to say "$50". It was gone the next day. Human nature, go figure. You may catch the relevance of this story. You may not.


Someone twittered with a link to this video. I've watched it twice. Doesn't get old.




Anywho, Happy New Year to all and have a great weekend.

No scans, back to photos.

Okay, so I tried scanning some of the pages and I do not like how they turned out, either. The scanner is really distorting the colors. I miss my old scanner. So, back to the camera. My "assistant" isn't here this afternoon, so, I'll have to wait until tomorrow when the sun is out, again.

In the meantime, I really like this TED talk. Warning, it's a bit long, but worth it.

Something to make you smile.

This makes me laugh and want to watch it again and again. I love how she says "ma-ma" in the middle.





This is really neat.

If you shop at Trader Joe's, you'll get a kick out of this.

Featured on a blog.

This week has been good, so far. I've had two sales and one of my houselettes has been featured on a blog. Please go to: http://dreambirddesigns.blogspot.com/2009/01/shopping-list-saturday-home-sweet.html and check it out. I love all those tiny houses. :)

In other news, today I am working on adding more boxes and cards. I'm also working on some stickers, etc., to go inside so I can get some pictures up.

All stuffed items are on sale. I will not be putting any more up until after the mess with that lead-law is sorted out. Don't want to get caught in the middle of that.

And lastly, if this doesn't make you smile...

Long time, no see...

Hope everyone had a great holiday season. We were quite busy with the usual festivities plus two separate hospital visits to boot. All are well now.

Here is a welcome back video that will make you smile.

More fun.

Two videos I found this weekend. The first makes you go "how'd they do that?"



If you have children who watch Nickelodian (or if you watch Nickelodian), you probably know who Purple and Brown are. Warning - it contains a bit of "bathroom humor".

I happen to love Craig Ferguson, but, no matter which side you're on, this speaks volumes.
