Sticky Situations

If you are anything like me, you have a total love affair with office supplies.  So when school supplies start filling the shelves, I have a tendency to go crazy spend a lot a little on supplies I don't need I will use.  How can I resist?  Pens.  Papers.  Notebooks.  Binders.  The notebooks are .15 cents!  A package of 10 wide crayola markers are one dollar!  A DOLLAR!  Composition books are .25cents.  And in the midst of my office obsession are post its!  I love post its!  But the virtual ones are even better!  Windows 7 has sticky notes!  And I use them!  Ah!  Maybe there is a 12 step program for me and my weakness for office supplies.  While I am off searching, you can read on my post it notes for the day.

***************************************

There is a site called CHATZY.  On this site you can create a room for chat.  I was introduced to this site a few years ago when a site I was on was having issues and its members needed a fix.  Anychat...tomorrow if I do it right, there should be a room accessible straight from my blog.  You just choose a color and type your name.  If for some reason, the room is not accessible right in the post itself, I will provide a link with the room name and password.  You can drop in anytime you want to say hi and visit.  I look forward to "seeing" everyone tomorrow!

I LOVE office supplies! What is it about them? The promise of being organized? The harkening back to new school supplies. I am not sure, but I know I love 'em!

I bought 3 or 4 bags full of school supplies from Walmart last week. Markers, crayons, notebooks, everything. I love it.
But when I was 11 and used to go to the mall with my friends we always had to go in Walgreens and look at the office supplies. Yeah I am a geek like that

I am a sucker for office supplies - you can never have to many...unfortunately that is my motto on a lot of things.

You are quite the party animal...a vlog and a chat room!

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters...

National Women's Day

    I don't need a day to talk about women I admire. I need a month, a year, a lifetime. Whether they are fictional or real it would take me more than a single post to log in all the women I admire as there are countless women out there whom I admire for their strength, spirit, and ability to uplift one another at all times. First, I want to talk about all of the fictional women simply because they give a performance of what we aspire to be or something we wish could be real. Dorothy Gale I fell in love with The Wizard of Oz at a very young age, I mean who didn't? But mostly,  I loved Dorothy and her absolute determination to get back home. She was completely terrified of the witch, but she still fought back. She was afraid of the Wizard (at first) but she still spoke her mind. Remember she is supposed to be TEN not nineteen (as Judy was in the film). She was a little girl. I always saw it that way. She's a little girl, like me, lost, far from home and a witch ...
