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.

This is very inspiring. I love Ellen.

A couple of videos to pass the time...

A smiley video.




And, I really like this talk...

Yikes! (and a sale)

Didn't realize how long it's been. You know how it goes. Tax time, etc. Oh, and my baby turned 19 on Thurs. I'm still in denial. Anywho, I have about a dozen ideas and issues I'd like to write about if I only had 4 extra hours in the day.

In the meantime, I'm going to be adding some new items in my shop soon. They will be more of the paper persuasion than yarn. So, I'd like to clear out some of the items still available. I will be having sales on different categories of items. This week, my tissue cozies will be on sale through next Saturday. Purchase any tissue cozy, put BLOG20 in the note to seller and receive 20% off (excluding shipping). You will receive the discount in a paypal partial refund.

I wanted to add my favorite Christopher Walken video - I love Christopher Walken - but, I couldn't find the one without embedding disabled. If you ever want to be entertained, go to youtube, do a search for Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice, and enjoy.

I did find one of the SNL skit with the Walken family reunion(embedding also disabled). It was a video of a tv playing SNL. Like they set the video camera in front of the tv and started recording. Okay...

Trader Joe's

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.

40 in 2

I really liked this. Still trying to figure out one movie.

Funny ad.

Advertising aside, this makes me smile. Enjoy.

12 Days of Christmas

Some fun for Black Friday.

Fun stuff

This is mesmerizing.



I dare you not to start dancing in your chair.

Wasting time.

This is interesting, but, long.



Fun.



And finally, (this is up intermittenly, if it's down go here

Free video chat by Ustream

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".

Something fun

If you are a child of the 80's, you'll like this video. :)

Aloha Saturday

The Simpsons - lego style.



Batman and the Joker - sorta - but funny.



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

Aloha Friday - part 1

I have so many items for today, I decided to split it in two. I'll post the rest tomorrow.

First, I want to try this at home.



Ninja cats - gotta love 'em.



And finally for today.



Don't you want one for a pet??

Bob

I will be making some major changes in my shop very soon. I will be getting rid of the jewelry part and focusing back on my roots - paper and yarn. I have some plushie type items and a new "house" series. My new blog is almost ready to debut and I will be having some giveaways and contests. I will continue to post my favorites and Aloha Friday. And, when available, I will still put up the Etsy Spaces.

In the meantime, something for Halloween. This is Bob, he lives along our front walkway. He was put there some years ago for Halloween. Afterward, the girls wanted him to stay and so he has. He sits there year 'round. He's been rained on and snowed on. The snow makes a lovely mohawk. He even used to have a bow, don't ask, but it blew away.

This picture was taken the other night when I wanted to test the settings on my camera. I think it's kind of eerie and even looks a little real, too.

Aloha Friday

This week's Aloha Friday is especially for Dr. Who fans.

Aloha Friday

It makes me happy that my daughter appreciates the humor of this video.



This is kind of gross at the beginning but keep watching.

Does your Target have two floors?

A prime example of how to waste time on the Internet. I like the band Punch Brothers and subscribe to their blog. The other day, they posted a link to a bunch of short, 2-minute interviews of two of the members. In one of the snippets, Noam Pikelny mentioned that since they moved to NYC; he had found some really cool things. One thing he mentioned was going to the Atlantic Terminal Mall in Brooklyn. And, the thing he liked about this mall is that it has a Target inside. A Target with two floors. And inside this Target is an escalator - for your cart. How cool is that?

Well, I had to find a picture of that. So, after much searching, I found that it is technically called a vermaport. Apparently they have them in many Targets and Ikeas and the like with more than one floor. Then, after searching for vermaport, I found the piece de resistance - a video of one in action. And so, I give you - the vermaport.



But please, take your child out first. Um, duh?!?

Okay, I'm a geek, but, I think this is fascinating.

Two side notes. One, to be honest, what I'm really envious of is the Target with TWO floors. And two, I also use my incredible research skills for good, too, like helping with homework. lol
