Thanks for stopping by!

This morning has been a fun, interesting, and productive few hours so far! I actually set my alarm to 6:30..that's right, I set my alarm for Sunday morning to get up that early so I could reserve a prime campsite at Mohican State Park for July! I found out the other day that they don't allow reservations prior to exactly 6 months at 7:00 am for any of the state park campgrounds in Ohio. You wouldn't believe what people do to get a good campsite! It's complicated and I won't bore you with how people beat the system but it was worth getting up early and not beating the system to get our site.  It's not a big deal though since I'm usually up early anyway..don't want to waste a minute of my weekend!!

Since I've been part of the Project Life now for a couple of weeks, I've discovered some VERY cool people! I've added them and links to my blog. One couple I discovered turned out to be...hmmm, I'm not sure exactly! I'm not sure who they are or what exactly they do! I do know that when I went to their blog this morning and the first thing I saw were these adorable
milk jug measuring cups from anthropologie which is the coolest place on planet earth (I discovered while living in CA back in '07) that I wanted to see more and visit them often. So, who is this couple? Kevin and Amanda . I'll have to spend some more quality time over at their blog so I can learn more about them. What I did learn is that they have some very cool help topics, one of which is "how to add a signature to your blog". Believe me when I say that is no easy task. Man!

Another blog I discovered (maybe the title of this post should have been "blogs I discovered today"), is The Mom Creative by Jessica Turner. She's VERY  creative. I've been looking for ways to make my PL album more eclectic and reflect more of the "everyday" like I want it to. Well!! She has this printable list of 100 Bits of Life....

Now just how cool is that?? Another blog I'm going to keep an eye on!

I came across this "awesome, fantastic, very cool, amazing" blog entry this morning I shared with my niece Nicole, who's expecting twins this summer. It's one of those posts I so wish I could have read when my kids were little and I was arguing with them in the middle of the grocery store about whether or not they had behaved well enough to warrant a trip to McDonalds and whether or not I would be struck by lightening if I wished for bedtime to come right then!  Don't Carpe Diem

Well, I've babbled enough this morning. I have lots to do with my PL as Sunday is my day to work on my weekly entry.
So, without further ado...my new signature:
