The second in the EliteHW series of case modding articles is aimed at the floppy drive. The floppy drive has become less and less useful since the advent of the zip drive and cdrw's. However, I use my floppy drive frequently enough to merit spending the time to change the led's to a more preferable color. I have been working on an all blue mod for some time so I hope to continue the trend!More information at EliteHW

The Day 5 challenge for the Bout of Books Read-a-Thon is hosted by Janey Canuck. I aimed to complete it last night but relating books and music isn't easy for me. It's not something I do. Which is kind of funny, considering music usually inspires me to dream up my own stories. I wracked my brain for ages, and finally came up with something this morning!
Anyways, first, the rules of the Book in a Song challenge:
Simply tell Janey Canuck what connections you have between a book and some music. Anything goes, really. Some suggestions to get you thinking:
- Rename your book with a song
- Give a lyric that sums up the plot of your book
- A song or album that is forever associated with a particular books in your mind
My book and music connection is Open Road Summer by Emery Lord and Taylor Swift. There's a character in this book, Lilah Montgomery, who is a county superstar, and the whole time I was reading I was picturing Taylor Swift. Because of that I started listening to Swift's music while reading Open Road Summer. I think Swift's earlier albums, Fearless and Speak Now, remind me of Lilah the most, though Red fits the book too.
And there you have it, my Book in a Song challenge completed! And just in time!

No, not the rude one – though I'm quite partial to dropping the odd 'c-bomb' should the need arise. In this case I mean Christmas. Is it too early? I suspect it probably is but I shall plough on regardless.
Usually I refuse to acknowledge anything vaguely festive until at least early December; I've been known to huff out of shops that play Christmas songs prematurely (though I do make an exception for 'She Came Home For Christmas' by Mew, or the beautiful Cocteau Twins cover of 'Frosty the Snowman' which has the exact opposite effect) . Similarly, I haven't been on eBay since they started the, FREAKIN' INTRUSIVE, virtual countdown of how many days there are left for them to part you from your money.
Still, when it comes to this most commercialised of usurped Pagan festivals, you have to be vaguely organised. Unless, that is, you enjoy the special look of unrestrained indifference when you present your family with gifts hastily wrapped in newspaper or relish the thought of tucking in to a microwave macaroni cheese because you forgot to buy a turkey.
So, forgive my smugness, when I say that I've got Christmas dinner sewn up already. In one fell swoop I've jauntily side-stepped the planning, shopping, cooking and even the washing up.
"What is this black magic of which you speak?!" , I hear you cry.
We're off oot, thanks to the hospitality of a local restaurant. I don't know why I've never thought of it before. Breathtaking in its simplicity and laziness, but isn't that what Christmas is all about (What's that? "Little baby Jesus.", nope, never heard of him).
It also means I can knock back the breakfast Bucks Fizz and pre-lunch G&Ts without fear of becoming so 'altered' I manage to throw the vegetables (meticulously prepared the night before) into a sink of dirty washing up water (as in 2006) or forget to put the oven on (like in 2009).
What's that annoying management-speak phrase? "To fail to plan, is to plan to fail, to make a flan on a plane."? Something like that. Either way, I've planned. What about you?

Photos and Videos
Greg Peterson
Before becoming a full-time photographer I was a social worker and before that a mediator. Those careers imbued me with the ability to communicate effectively and to handle diverse social circumstances; both abilities I believe, serve me well as a photographer.
I absolutely love covering weddings because of the great feelings that are typically so prevalent. I almost find it intoxicating. I believe in capturing the essence of the event by being in the background as much as possible and letting the day unfold naturally.
Your wedding is destined to be one of your greatest memories and I feel it is my job to help you recreate the day to its fullest by creating visual imagery which captures the feelings and mood of the day.

Book fairs are a fun and profitable way to raise money for your PTO, Friends of the Library or other school programs. Village Square Booksellers will bring the books directly to you and set up a mini-store, complete with the very best new books for young readers. The school must designate a secure, lockable room for a multi-day Book Fair. A percentage of all sales go to benefit the school.
We'll coordinate with your school librarian, teachers, or parent volunteers to tailor the fair's inventory specifically for your school's needs. We provide a cash register, and computerized inventory, as well as handling all accounting for the event. Sales at the Book Fair should be made by Cash or Check, since banks add credit card payments charges of 4%. Parent volunteers are requested to breakdown the fair if it is a multi-day event.
We can also arrange for local authors or illustrators to visit the school during the fair to help boost book sales. Your book fair is also a great time for parents to donate books to the school library or classrooms, so we encourage teachers & librarians to create wish lists.
If putting on a book fair at your school seems like too much work, or you think there just isn't the secure space at your school to stage such an event, Village Square Booksellers can host in-store fundraising shopping nights. Basically from 6-9 pm on a designated evening you bring the party to the store and a percentage of everything purchased will be donated to the school. Or we can design a coupon for a special weekend of in-store shopping.

We saw this massive Gundam hanging from the ceiling, which was pretty impressive, so I took a photo of it and with it.
We then made our way to Shangri-La hotel, for high tea. We were craving for some sweets.
The food from the high tea selection was not bad, but I wouldn't say the best high tea I've ever had. However presentation wise, it's pretty cute~
Eating the scones and cakes weren't enough to fill us up, so Steph and I ordered a burger and fries to share. We actually started craving burgers when the customer next to us ordered one. The burgers just smell and taste so good!
Here is our cute little photo from our high-tea-turned-into-burger-eating-session photo.
As we continued to shop around TST, and I took Steph to the side to show her one of the best views of the horizon. The sun was setting and the colours were just beautiful!
We took a selfie to remember the view and our trip~
Then we went to a nearby Ghibli shop, which sold many merchandises from Japan! Although, the prices are much more costly than the Japan prices.
Look at these cute figurines! All ghibli characters~
And we cannot forget about Mr. Totoro, himself! Big and cuddly! After looking at all the merchandises at the store, we moved towards the end of the plaza, near the ferry terminal.
There are open floor shops there which sell various items, such as clothes, merchandises, accessories, bags, stationary, etc. I saw a figurine of Stitch so I took a photo of it~ He is so cute~!
Been super busy today running around for all my last minute purchases and exchange some money for New Zealand. I was planning to film, but so many things had to be done, so I don't think I will be getting any videos up for the next 2-3 weeks. *sighs*
Oh well! I'll try and get some blog posts up instead!!

I found a blog that is cracking me up! It's a blog with lawyer-related cartoons called Courtoons.
I put up some samples on here. FYI, these are particularly funny because I'm the bluebooking expert around my office. It's a pretty useless skill, but I do know how to cite things correctly. I even know which commas and periods are supposed to be italicized and which ones are supposed to be in normal type. I know when to use an en dash and when to use and em dash. I am a nerd, and I'm okay with that.

In my practice I have noticed recently that there has been a recent influx with clients suffering with sleeping issues. Now sleep and the lack of it is not a new phenomenon by any stretch, however, it has I feel become so commonplace that it is almost considered normal.
But what seems to be most worrying is the consuming of prescribed and over the counter medications that are available to help allure perfect rest without addressing the underlying cause as to why one is not sleeping. It may seem like an obvious question and mostly the reasons are stress related. However how does one aim to help this in the long term, taking everyday medications doesn't remove the cause, and in the long term can lead to dependency but also a state of grogginess of never feeling fully awake.
The reasons people turn to homeopathy is due to the fact they are fed up of not sleeping and are fed up of taking sleeping pills to do so. They have genuine interest in themselves as to why they are suffering and want to deal with the issue in a natural, non-toxic and holistic way that works with them and their symptoms as individuals.
I have one patient who had not slept for months and after taking his case in detail I prescribed the remedy, Coffea. After taking one dose, at the weekend as suggested, he slept for over 12hours in one night and throughout the weekend he continued to catch up until work on the Monday and I am happy to say he has continued to sleep very well since. This example shows whatever you may be suffering with does not necessarily require a course of tablets to be taken everyday just one indicated remedy and one dose in many cases depending on the underlying cause.

Fast-paced and often funny, with tart jibes at roadies, groupies, nonmusical musicians, and the pop life.

A Visit from Bodhi
Oh dear, over a week since my last post. Don't you hate it when life gets too busy to blog?
Today, we got to have Bodhi come for a visit. Bodhi is a 2-year old Blue Picardy Spaniel and a favorite friend of Cabana's at the dog park. I love how he lays with his paws crossed, so dapper.
Next month, we've offered to keep Bodhi while his owners are away for a few days. Because Bodhi has never been exposed to homes other than his own, we decided it would be a good idea to have Bodhi over for an hour or two in preparation for his real sleepover.
Bodhi was a bit nervous at first, running to every door and window, looking for his hu-mom after she dropped him off, but he settled down after 15 minutes.
I had shut all the bedroom doors upstairs, so I could keep a better eye on Bodhi's whereabouts. But at one point, he ran upstairs and managed to pushed open the door to my older daughter's room. Suddenly, I heard him barking loudly, so I went up to see what was going on. Turns out that Bodhi was scared of the stuffed bear on my daughter's bed. I held it out to him to show him it was a lifeless toy, but he wouldn't come any closer to investigate until I asked Cabana to come and give it a sniff. After he saw Cabana's fearless behavior, he finally realized that Freddy, with his missing eyes and torn-up nose and who used to belong to my husband when he was a child, is relatively harmless.
In the photos, it looks like Cabana can barely tolerate Bodhi! But he really is one of her best friends at the dog park. Maybe she was puzzled by his nervous energy at our house. They played with each other a little bit, but not as much as I had anticipated. The funny thing is, when Bodhi's hu-mom came back for him, he suddenly became his old rambunctious self, going into full play mode, happy and comfortable with his owner present. It can be hard for a dog who is under-exposed to new situations, so I'm glad we got to take it slow with this practice visit. I think he'll do even better the next time.

BFP Stories
Early Pregnancy Symptoms and Big Fat Positives
BFP with Clomid first month! TTC 4months
I am still in shock but wanted to share my story to give someone somewhere some encouragement. About me, I'm 27 and my DH is 28 and 4 months ago we decided to start a family. I was diagnosed with thin PCOS soon after and was prescribed 50 mg of Clomid once my doctor realized I was not ovulating on my own. Fast forward to the November 30th, I got my period and started taking the pills on CD 3-7 with estrogen supplements on CD 8-12. My CD 10 follicle scans showed 2 mature eggs 17mm and 18mm on my right side (loaded with cysts) and a 13.5mm on my right side. I was overjoyed to see that the Clomid was working for me. FYI - I am an extreme pessimistic. I started temping for the first time because based on those number my nurse believed I was going to ovulate mid-cycle. I was skeptical because my I never gotten a positive OPK and my cycle average around 40 days. So on CD 14 I got a positive OPK and that week we BD 5 times. I saw my temp rise on CD 16 and believe I ovulated. During this week, I experienced severe ovulation pain unable to walk or move at times. My bowel movements were painful and having sex was almost unbearable. My nurse said this is common especially if you haven't ovulated in a long time plus it was my for month on Clomid. I thought she was crazy. 1-5DPO - I was still in pain. Walking was so hard I worked from home to stay under the heat pad. During this time my breast was hurting and I had CM. I thought it was still the aftermath of ovulating. CD 21 I got my progestrone pulled and it was 72! I was dumbfounded that I actually ovulated and possible with multiple follicles. My nurse said I was sure to get pregnant. I was again skeptical. 8DPO - the worse happened. I was rushed to the ER with serve cervical pains and cramping that parallelized me. I was confident that a cyst had erupted. Keep in mind this the day before Christmas Eve and on Christmas we were planning to travel to China for the holiday. The ran many test including a beta pregnancy test - which came back negative less than 3 - and everything looked find. I was incredible frustrated. At this moment I knew I didn't want to take Clomid right away or at least not at 50mg. The ER doctor said I have over stimulated ovaries and this pain should subside. I was pissed because it felt more than just "ovary pains." So 5 hours later we were driving back home. 9DPO - I cried 2 hours because the beta test was negative and I felt this entire process was worthless. My husband kept saying it was too early to tell but I had watched countless youtube videos with women getting faint lines on 8DPO - silly me thinking I was going to be like everyone else. 10DPO - Christmas morning, I took an online cheapie and I saw a faint line. I asked my DH what he saw and he said he saw a line as well. I was indifferent and chalked it up to a false positive. We board our 17hr plane to China and I am 1000% nausea, unable to eat, brown spotting, cramping, and extremely gassy. You can only imagine how comfortable this ride was. We travel frequently and I knew something was up but couldn't believe I was pregnant. 11DPO - After finally getting into our hotel room, I took another cheapie and bam the line was much darker. I then took a Clear Blue Digital and saw the words pregnant! I am 4 weeks now sitting in a hotel in China trying not to puke while enjoying our holiday. Will you believe me if i tell you I am still in disbelieve. Can't wait to get the final confirmation from my nurse! Keep believing ladies because this too will be your story - but better!

MELBOURNE — Voters reelected Mayor Harry Goode Jr. 2,504 votes, or 75.6 percent, to Fred Allen's 807 votes, or 24.3 percent.
Goode said his campaign for reelection to the three-year mayor's job, which pays $7,500 a year, rested on his record. He has been mayor since 1979 and is a member of one of Melbourne's founding families. His father, Harry Goode Sr., was a councilman, and his grandfather, Alex Goode, also was mayor.

|Jervis Stoot
|Chaotic evil
In 4687 AR, when Jervis Stoot made clear his intentions to build a home on the island just north of the Old Light, locals in Sandpoint paid him no mind. Jervis had already garnered something of a reputation as an eccentric for his one-man crusade to carve depictions of birds on every deserving building in town. Stoot never made a carving without securing permission, but his incredible skill made it a given that if Stoot picked your building as the site of his latest project, you seized the opportunity. Sporting a Stoot soon grew to be something of a bragging point, and Jervis eventually extended his talent to include ship figureheads and even carriages. Those who asked or tried to pay him for his skill were rebuffed, Stoot telling them, "There ain't no birds in that wood for me t'set free," and going on his way. Stoot often wandering the streets for days before noticing a hidden bird in a fencepost, lintel, steeple, or doorframe and securing permission to "release" it with his trusty carving knives.
Stoot's excuse for wanting to move to the isle seemed innocent enough—the place was a haven for local birdlife, and his claim of "Wantin' ta be with th' birds" seemed to make sense. So much, in fact, that the guild of carpenters (with whom Stoot had maintained a friendly competition for several years) volunteered to build a staircase, free of charge, along the southern cliff face so that Stoot could come and go from his new home with ease. For fifteen years, Stoot lived on the island. His trips into town grew less and less frequent, making it something of an event when he chose a building to host a new Stoot.[1]
In 4702 AR, amid the terrible time that would come to be known as "the late unpleasantness", the town's local serial killer, called Chopper, took the life of the sheriff, Casp Avertin, in a dark alley. When the town guard found the sheriff dead with another victim several minutes later, they were able to follow the bloody trail left by the killer.
A trail that led straight to the stairs of Stoot's Rock.
At first, the town guard refused to believe the implications, and feared that Chopper had come to claim poor Jervis Stoot as his 26th victim. Yet what the guards found in the modest home atop the isle, and in the larger complex of rooms that had been carved into the bedrock below, left no room for doubt. Jervis Stoot and Chopper were the same, and the eyes and tongues of all 25 victims were found in a horrific altar to a birdlike demon[2] whose name none dared speak aloud. Stoot himself was found dead at the base of the altar, having plucked his own eyes and tongue loose for a final offering. The guards collapsed the entrance to the chambers, burned Stoot's house, tore down the stairs, and did their best to forget. Stoot himself was burned on the beach in a pyre, his ashes then blessed and then scattered in an attempt to stave off an unholy return of his evil spirit from beyond the grave. And in the months to follow, Sandpoint did its best to forget the terror, although even today, children who remember the dark times only six years ago sometimes wake with nightmare visions of Chopper hiding under their beds.[1]
What the townspeople of Sandpoint do not know, however, is what led Stoot to commit such unspeakable crimes. In fact, Stoot's murderous rampage was caused by the very same thing which brought about the Sandpoint chapel fire and the death of Atsuii Kaijitsu. When Runelord Alaznist's Runewell of Wrath activated under Sandpoint, the resulting magical energies made most people only feel a brief anger. In Stoot, though, the wrath grew until he became a serial killer.[3]

FIRED-UP manager Peter Jackson is backing skipper Efe Sodje to inspire a clean sheet as Town bid to Rock the Kassam tomorrow (3.00).
The 31-year-old centre-back has helped put Town within three points of opponents Oxford United in the battle for automatic promotion and Jackson hopes he can prove a victorious talisman in front of 1,500 travelling fans at the new stadium.
Supporters have warmed to Sodje's no-nonsense approach, snapping up more than 1,000 of his bandanas from the club shop to make it the second best-selling item behind the home shirt.
And they will be right behind him again tomorrow when Town run out having listened to The Clash hit Rock the Casbah, which has been their pre-match anthem for the wins over Lincoln and Yeovil.
Sodje has responded by leading a solid defensive effort of only eight goals conceded in 12 matches since Oxford visited the McAlpine - a match remembered for Sodje's flare-up with striker Julian Alsop, who was sent-off and banned for five matches despite an FA appeal.
Alsop is expected to lead the Oxford attack again tomorrow because leading scorer Steve Basham is out with a hamstring injury, so it should be an intriguing battle as Oxford look to extend their impressive unbeaten home run to 19 matches in a crunch encounter.
"Efe has responded to wearing the captain's armband in magnificent style and he has led by example," said Jackson, who has added Tony Carss and Chris Holland to the squad and hinted at possible changes as Town look for a first win at Oxford since October 1980, when Ian Robins and Dave Cowling were on target in a 2-0 victory.
"We have a great defensive record of late and we want to keep that going tomorrow, although we will have to start well and be solid at set pieces against an Oxford side who are very big and powerful.
"The lads are going down there in very positive mood, though, and if we show the same commitment and effort which has brought us this far then hopefully our fans will have a fantastic win to cheer."
Town have loan man Pawel Abbott looking for a fourth goal in as many games as Jackson's side bid to improve an away record which already reads four wins and a draw in their last five trips.
Jon Worthington and Lee Fowler are just one booking each away from two-match bans, although Steve Yates and Andy Holdsworth will no longer face suspension if they collect fifth yellows of the campaign because that disciplinary deadline has now passed.
Andy Booth will play with a heavy strapping to protect the broken bone in his left hand, and Jackson added: "This is a big game, we are looking forward to it and we want to produce the goods. If we go joint third, it will be a huge boost, so we will be going all out for the victory."
Oxford United - (from): Woodman, McCarthy, Crosby, Bound, McNiven, Whitehead, Quinn, Hunt, Robinson, Alsop, Steele, Hackett, Waterman, Rawle, Ashbee, Scott, Basham.
Town - (from): Senior, Holdsworth, Lloyd, Clarke, Yates, Sodje, Schofield, Worthington, Mattis, Booth, Abbott, Carss, Rachubka, Edwards, Mirfin, Newby, Fowler, Holland.
Referee - Paul Armstrong (Berkshire).

This is the view of the desktop on my iMac. I've been spending a lot of time getting organized and ready for the big move over to my new website. But putting together something that is going to be valuable to you when you spend time reading my blog and making my new website exactly what I want it to be is taking time. I am happy to do this work and have my blog evolve in this way.
Part of this change is getting things very organized – in my head, in my office space and on my computer. I spent time this weekend completely clearing out my inbox. Every single email message has been sorted, filed or deleted. This is a big deal for me.
A few things that helped me with this process:
- My gmail account has been acting crazy and a few weeks ago it removed all of my 2,000+ email messages (gulp, yes I really did just admit that!) from my inbox in the Mac Mail program on my computer. All of these messages are still mixed in the archive folder, but I need to drag and drop each one to deal with them. I just took this as a sign to start fresh from where I was. So, if you have contacted me and not heard back, please email me again and I will be in touch!
- I created action folders for all of the emails I receive. These include business files, receipt files, personal files, to do files and to read files – among many more files. Just creating these files is not going to be enough. I need to use these files every day.
- I am conquering my fear of the delete key. I am a saver. I am afraid to delete anything for fear that I might need it and not have it. All this has done is create an overflowing inbox and a cluttered head for me. So I was a wild woman with the delete key this weekend – and it felt great!
- My plan is to spend 10 minutes each day dealing with email. If you really think about it, 10 minutes is not very long. It is a mater of being focused and taking action for each message – not just talking about it. Intentions are good, but they are not the same as actually doing it. I'm going to set a timer and challenge myself to keep my inbox clear. I'll let you know how this goes.
I also organized the files on my desktop. It had become the dumping ground for all the files that I had no idea where to put. Now, I thrive on being organized (you should see my calendar and photo files!) so this chaos on my desktop was driving me crazy. The cause of all clutter is indecision. Read that again… The cause of all clutter is indecision. Not knowing where something should go or things not having a "home" is how clutter happens! Weather it is a file on my computer or a note the boys bring home from school, if I am not clear on where it goes and put it in its place right away, then it will become clutter for sure.
Here is what I did to clear off my desktop:
- I started by mapping out what files I needed to access and what folder these files belonged in. I divided things into personal and business folders. Then I just dragged and dropped everything into these files and the sub-files I also created.
- I want to keep only files I need to access currently on my desktop, so I moved all of my old files off of my desktop.
- I made files for anything I'll be needing in the future so I can create a "home" for everything as I am saving it instead of having it all pile up on my desktop again.
- I love using color coding for organization. I use a mac app called Folder Forge to color my folders on my computer. This makes me happy.
Yes, that really is my computer desktop on the top of this post. Waking up this morning to a clear computer screen and a mostly empty inbox (reality check = it will never be completely empty, but it is definitely more manageable now) was such a relief. It makes all of the things on my to-do list not seem quite so overwhelming. So the trick for me is to follow-up my good start with consistent habits of spending a few minutes at the beginning and end of each day doing a "digital pick-up" to organize anything that is not where it belongs. Just like my house benefits from a sweep at night to pick-up things that are out of place (and that means a lot of things with my kids!), so will my computer – and therefore my head.

Welcome to my happy little place on the world wide web where I talk about pretty things that enjoy. Feeling pretty helps me feel good. This is vital when trying to maintain a positive attitude in the face of adversity. Today I want to share with you the L'Oreal 24 Hour Infallible Eye Shadow. Why do they feel the need to make that 24 hour claim? No one should be wearing makeup for 24 hours. So why bother? Be forewarned this post is picture heavy.
I love the formula of these shadows. Mainly because they are so creamy and metallic. They are easy to apply and easy to wear. When placed over a good primer these shadows will not budge. The interesting thing is that different application methods will garner different results. If you apply it with a brush you will get a beautifully blendable but less metallic look. A sponge tipped applicator will provide a smoother finish and a shinier finish. To achieve the most metallic finish use your finger. The finish will be smoothest and most metallic when rubbed with your finger.
I will take you through my collection starting with the neutrals first.
This could be my favorite of the bunch. Iced Latte is a golden champagne shade which looks great on the inner tear duct or as a shimmery browbone highlight. It also works great on the cupid's bow and can be used in the center of the bottom lip to accentuate a pouty lip.
Amber Rush tends to be one of the most highly discussed of the range as it's a lovely rose gold shade. It reminds me most of the MAC pigment in Tan. This shade has a beautiful metallic quality to it. I enjoy this shade but I find that I reach for my Flower cream shadow in Wild Geranium more. You can find my comparison post between the two HERE.
Next is the shade Bronzed Taupe. This is a lovely mid-range brown with a beautiful shine to it which reminds me a lot of the MAC shadow in Woodwinked which happens to be among my favorite. This shade would look great on a broad range of skin tones. This shade doesn't get enough recognition if you ask me.
When I first bought Bottomless Java, I wondered what on earth I was going to with it. I have sense learned that there are plenty of wonderful things to do with it. It looks absolutely amazing in the crease. It makes an amazing brown smoky eye. It looks fantastic smudged on the lower lash line. I have come to really enjoy this one.
These four shades, Iced Latte, Amber Rush, Bronzed Taupe and Bottomless Java, get a lot of love. They are absolutely beautiful and work well with each other or with other shadows.
Silver Sky is a true shiny silver that adds absolutely brilliant sparkle. This makes a gorgeous inner corner highlight, especially with a deep smoky eye. I love wearing this on the inner third and placing a bright turquoise on the outer two-thirds and deepening the crease with a deep navy.
While Silvery Sky is a true shiny silver, Liquid Diamond is a cement or taupe gray. I am quite fond of pairing this with a deep matte purple in the outer corner and crease. This is shade contains the least sparkle of all the Infallibles in my collection. This is definitely the office friendly version of Silver Sky.
Golden Emerald describes this shade perfectly. It's a gorgeous deep emerald shade with beautiful flecks of gold running through it. This is the perfect shade for a deep smoky green that plays off my green eyes quite nicely. I have found myself enjoying this delightful shade.
These three shades, Silver Sky, Liquid Diamond and Golden Emerald, probably get the least amount of love in my collection but I am absolutely crazy about all three of them. This photo does not do the justice to the sparkle and shine of Silver Sky. It is absolutely mesmerizing.
Always Pearly Pink is that barely there baby pink that works well with bronzes and purples. This shade makes for a more subtle brow bone and inner corner highlight. It also makes for a lovely above the crease blending shade if you are looking for something with some sparkle and shine.
Burst into Bloom is a gorgeous pinkish lavender that has a slight duo-chrome property to it. This color makes for an incredible single shadow look or it can be paired with several other colors to create some amazing looks. It also makes for an incredible pop of color along the lower lash line.
Glistening Garnet is an amazing burnt cranberry color. While it has a little less shine than Burst Into Bloom it can add a beautiful warmth to cooler eye looks. This shade blends works well with both purples and browns.
I love these three shades, Always Pearly Pink, Burst Into Bloom and Glistening Garnet, as they can add a lovely pop of color to an otherwise neutral look. These get reached for quite a bit when I am looking to add a bit of color.
There is nothing more rare, nor more beautiful than a woman being unapologetically herself; comfortable in her perfect imperfection. To me, that is the true essence of beauty. ~Steve Maraboli

Complete Text of Report is available in PDF format (2.40 MB). Copies can also be obtained by contacting the Office of Public Affairs at 202-619-1343.
Our review of the Runaway and Homeless Street Outreach Program administered by Spectrum Youth and Family Services, Inc. (Spectrum) and funded by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) disclosed that program goals were generally being met. However, not all required Program Progress Reports were submitted by Spectrum. With regard to the accounting system and grant management policies, we noted that internal control deficiencies were reported in Spectrum's annual organizationwide audit performed by its independent Certified Public Accountant (CPA) in each of the three years ended September 30, 2000. However, Spectrum has not taken corrective action on all of these deficiencies and, as a result, they continue to be problem areas that could adversely affect Spectrum's ability to administer federal programs in accordance with applicable requirements.
In addition to the deficiencies identified by the CPA, we noted that Spectrum (1) included as their nonfederal share of matching funds costs related to another federal grant award and other costs that are not appropriate for federal matching purposes; (2) regularly drew down ACF grant funds at the rate of one-twelfth per month rather than drawing funds based on actual program expenditure requirements; (3) did not file all required Financial Status Reports for the period reviewed; and (4) maintained a Contingency Account on their accounting books which included small balances.
We recommended that Spectrum take action to correct all deficiencies noted in the CPA audit reports as well as those additional issues identified during our review. Spectrum officials concurred with the recommendations and indicated that policies have been established to correct all deficiencies noted in our audit report.

Zac Efron: I Want to be 'Exactly Like' Tom Cruise in 30 Years
Zac Efron looks dapper while leaving an office building on Monday (April 23) in London, England.
The 24-year-old actor jetted across the pond to promote his latest project, The Lucky One, which he screened in NYC with co-star Taylor Schilling.
Over the weekend, Zac participated in a Twitter Q&A session where one fan asked, "How do you imagine yourself in 30 years?"
"A little wrinklier?" Zac joked. "Hopefully exactly like Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible. Chasing down bad guys."
In case you missed it, check out some new stills from Zac's other movie, The Paperboy, featuring Nicole Kidman!

String blocks, etc.
Our Heartstrings group had a block party this week-end to replenish the inventory of blocks that are ready to assemble into quilts by volunteers. I cut 48 green center strips and managed to finish 35 blocks. The other 13 will be finished tomorrow. Usually our center strips are red or blue, but we are doing green for the months of September and October. These will have a masculine appeal.
I added a couple of borders to the Snoopy Disappearing Nine Patch top that I made for my friend, Val. She will have it quilted and donate it to the fire department.
Friday night Jim, Connie and I attended our final Tigers' ballgame of the year. WE WON! We had tickets for 16 games this year and were there for only two previous wins. It was a very disappointing year, but Tigers' fans set a new attendance record of over 3.2 million. We did get to see Gary Sheffield hit homers #498 and #499. He has one more game tomorrow to make it to 500 this year.
The American Sewing Expo was in Novi, Michigan this week-end. We left early for the ballgame Friday so Connie and I could spend a couple of hours browsing the vendors. In the center of the room was a roped off area where a contest was going on similar to Project Runway. There were many seminars and classes that looked interesting. At one end of the building was a large lounge where Jim had a comfortable couch and free WiFi. He was content while we wandered through the different areas of the Expo.
A lovely package arrived from Gina over at Quilting in the Valleys. I was the lucky winner of her 200 Post Giveaway. She made a cute tote bag using sewing themed fabrics. The tote bag held a pattern, fat quarters, two magazines, chocolate, floss, and a wonderful panel of Quilter's Quips. It's always a fun mail day when packages are in the box. Thank you very much, Gina.
Congratulations to Hanne
who is celebrating her first pattern release with a giveaway. Check out the cute Christmas stockings she made.
Myra is also having a giveaway celebrating her 200th post. And don't forget to sign up for my giveaway celebrating 200 posts!

Q: (from almost everyone I talk to)
What's coming up next for Office 365? When will (fill in the blank) be available?
In the distant past, people in my role had limited insight regarding what was on the horizon for new technologies within Microsoft. And often, even if we had insight, we had to be careful because a lot of that insight couldn't be immediately shared with customers and partners.
But this week all that changed!
We now have the Public Roadmap for Office 365 for businesses. Go to http://office.com/roadmap and you too can see what has been recently released, what is about to be released, what is on our radar for the future. This is by no means a comprehensive list, and I'm sure release dates will change based on availability of stable code, but this is great for keeping you in-the-loop and helping you help your customers see how Office 365 is advancing.

Recently I began to see a counselor. I decided to finally talk about something that happened to me when I was a child.
I was molested.
Last night was a rough session.
Bottom line is, I matter. So many things are probably tied in to that incident. The fact that growing up I was labeled as moody and referred to as vinegar. How my male friends saw me more as an equal than a girl. My disorted self-image. My need to be able to control.
It is a process. And one of the first things I need to acknowledge is that I matter.
I do.

La Biblioteca presents a multi-awarded documentary
By Jesús Ibarra
On the occasion of its 60th anniversary, La Biblioteca is presenting several exclusive events each month, with an open invitation to the general public.Cine Quebranto (Disrupted), documental/documentary Español/Spanish with English Subtitles Talk with director Roberto Fiesco/Plática con el director Roberto Fiesco Fri, Apr 4/Vie, Abr 4, 7pm Teatro Santa Ana Reloj 50-A Donation/Cooperación: 30 pesos
April starts with the exclusive presentation of Quebranto (Disrupted), a documentary by Mexican director Roberto Fiesco that has triumphed in various film festivals. Among the awards it has received is the Maguey Award 2013, wich recognizes film productions on sexual diversity at the International Film Festival in Guadalajara (FICG).
This documentary evokes the memory and testimony of two characters: Fernando García Ortega, known as Pinolito during his tenure as a child actor in Mexican movies of the 1970s, and Ms. Lilia Ortega, his mother, an actress and movie extra. Fernando became a transvestite a few years ago and now calls himself Coral Bonelli. They both live in colonia Garibaldi in Mexico City, longing for their former film careers as Coral assesses and assumes her gender identity.
"It's an emotional journey with poignant, dramatic and terrible moments; they have lived through very difficult situations, such as death, illness, defeat and frustrated hopes. But among all the drama there is also a deep sense of humor and an endearing relationship between them, which is touching for the public," said Fiesco.
Disrupted will be showcased at the Teatro Santa Ana on Friday, April 4, at 7pm, in Spanish with English subtitles. The film's director will talk with the audience after the screening. Look for an exclusive interview with Roberto Fiesco next week in Atención.

March Days
Have not found the time to spend on my blog as life seems to be busy here and a lot going on.
We have builders working on our home, putting in a new retaining wall so as I write, can hear saws buzzing, rocks sliding down a shute to back fill and with the radio playing loudly and chitchat between the builders, it is all go. My job is making cups of coffee and tea to make their job a little easier and keep them hydrated in the heat.
Come the afternoon, when they finish for the day, all goes back to peace and quiet.
We are having the most glorious weather, clear blue skies but you can feel the days are shorter and getting up in the morning now, the sky is dark. Daylight saving starts here on Sunday so that is a signal that Autumn and winter will not be far away, so will make the most of the lovely weather
Thank you so much for visiting my blog and I look forward to coming over to say hello and see what you are up to.
I hope you have a wonderful week

Wishing you all the best for the progress on your new retaining wall.
Those are times we all have to live through in order to improve things in the end!
Here the very same, not that much time for blogging or visiting.
Yesterday I did the big dinner for Pieter's club at our home. Need to recover from that. The shopping (is long distance for us to find specialty food items) and than the tidying of the home and the final cooking and table setting.
So happy that is over with. Now the tax papers need to get done... Than finally we can start cruising along 2017.
Let's hope it goes smooth.

Enjoy your lovely weather, Carolyn.
What a pretty little seating area, Carolyn! I know you can't enjoy it now with all the work going on, but I'm sure it is a little refuge once the workmen leave for the day. How kind of you to bring them refreshments, too. Here we are just starting spring and you are winding down towards winter....I do love the autumn, though. I think it is my favorite time of year. Sending hugs and hope you get some peace and quiet soon! xo KarenReplyDelete

"you alone have brought me to bath"
For me, when I think about Bath, I also think about Jane Austen. Naturally, visiting The Jane Austen Centre was a must, and it was really good. Lots of Jane Austen (re)learning, and lots of hat wearing. Other places I saw and loved were the Pulteney Bridge (so pretty and only four of its kind in the world!), the Holburne Museum (which was unfortunately closed at the time, but I did get to have a wee walk in the Sydney gardens), and The Circus (that alongside with the Royal Crescent has some intereting symbolism. Not a 100% sure of the truth of this, but I was told the three sections of the Circus symbolize the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit and from most angles the Circus looks like a circle - the Holy Trinity together. And also an aerial view looks like a key, that some think is a Masonic symbol and some see it as "the key to heaven". There seemed to be lots of threes and other little symbolism as well, and I am very into these kind of hidden meanings and what not!). It's quite fascinating thinking that most of these things, places and buildings have been there when Jane Austen (or anyone else of her time) wandered the streets of Bath, and people are still experiencing them but in different ways. For my next visit - whenever it might be - I might go on a full-on Jane Austen's Bath exploration and time it so that I can catch the Jane Austen festival. Hope you've also enjoyed the Bath-themed Austen quotes in these posts this week. Has it been clear that I like her a bit, yet?
More posts from this Bath week (haha!) can be found here, here and here. Would you look at me posting this frequently!

I'm an aspiring novelist and (also aspiring) world traveler. I have a bachelor's degree in English literature and worked in journalism for several years. I decided to start a blog in order to make myself write something every day hoping to force my creative juices going in a way they haven't in a long while.

Renee, I think this is a GREAT idea. And I've enjoyed reading what you've written.
Writing "the great American Novel" is a lofty goal, but writing to touch the minds and souls of those who happen upon your words and provoking thought is real and important. You have succeeded.

What a wonderful start. I enjoyed the peanut butter tale, very good imagery.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Thank you for sharing – this is wonderful, very eloquent. I have been toying with the idea of a blog. (Currently, still in the dark ages with paper journal and pencil) Think I may have to try this out.
Thanks again for another shot of inspiration!
I just read your comment on Tattytiara's blog and popped over. This is a wonderful blog!
I always enjoy finding other writers. I've never been an aspiring novelist, though I did the journalism and other route for several years.
I wish you well in your endeavors and I'll return here as I can.
Good morning and Merry SITSmas!
I have really enjoyed your site and I'm adding it to my list so that I can come back often!
It's a great idea. My blog has certainly improved my writing. I was looking to see where you live. The paved over railway tracks in your recent posting makes me think you live along the TransCanada trail. Am I close?
This is almost exactly the backstory for my blogging! Now that my son is in school all day, I needed to get back in the habit of writing every day … it's almost working!
Congratulations on your SITS Day! I'll be back for more …
[…] the moment, and why not add one more? Especially, since it's urged by the lovely and talented Renee over there in the […]

Name: Mike Hazard
My nickname in the schools is Media Mike. I love to use cameras and computers to see things. A recent Bush Fellow, I am artist in residence at The Center for International Education. Six of my films have enjoyed national release on PBS.
I love to help people learn to make video and photographs and write stories the way I learned - hands-on, learning by making. Flexibility is my middle name. As a member of the Association for Teaching Artists, my teaching philosophy is all about life-long learning. www.teachingartists.com/whoweareMike.htm.
Residency Title: I offer three basic residency experiences: Seeing with Video, Seeing with Cameras, and Picture Stories.
Grade Level: Preschool - high school, lessons are adapted for age-appropriate levels
Number of Sessions: From one to many; the average is the usual five day residency with about 20 class sessions in the course of the week.
By learning how pictures and videos are made, students learn two things: how to creatively express themselves, and how to decode mass media. The first grows self-esteem and awareness; the second is a survival skill in our electronic culture. Cameras and computers can be creatively used with any particular educational area.
All our work is hands on. We learn by making. We use video or still cameras to make images and we use computers to write and edit the work. Each residency adapts to the technology and gear available at each school; the artist provides additional equipment as needed. The photo residency uses all types of cameras, from cell phones to iPads.
All residencies are led by yours truly, Media Mike Hazard.

Eidul Fitr is the first Eid and it starts the day after the last day of Ramadan. Eidul Fitr is always on Shawwaal 1.
But what about Eidul Adhaa?
Eidul Adhaa falls roughly 70 days after Eidul Fitr and is always on Dhul Hijjah 10. Eidul Fitr marks the end of Ramadan, the month of fasting. What about Eidul Adhaa? What is its significance?
Eidul Adhaa is also known as the Slaughtering Eid. (It's also known as the Day of An-Nahr (Slaughter). On this Eid, Muslims slaughter animals such as camel, cow, sheep, and goat. This Eid commemorates the trial that Allah gave Prophet Ibrahim (alayhi sallam) when He told him to slaughter his son, Ismail (alayhi sallam). Prophet Ibrahim (alayhi sallam), being the obedient slave that he was, prepared to sacrifice his son. However, as a reward for his obedience, Allah replaced Ismail with a ram and Prophet Ibrahim (alayhi sallam) sacrificed the ram instead of his son.
Surah 37: 83-111 narrates this story:
83. And, verily, among those who followed his [Nuh's (Noah)] way (Islamic Monotheism) was Ibrahim (Abraham).
84. When he came to his Lord with a pure heart [attached to Allah Alone and none else, worshipping none but Allah Alone true Islamic Monotheism, pure from the filth of polytheism].
85. When he said to his father and to his people: "What is it that which you worship?
86. "Is it a falsehood aliha (gods) other than Allah that you seek?
87. "Then what do you think about the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns, and all that exists)?"
88. Then he cast a glance at the stars (to deceive them),
89. And he said: "Verily, I am sick (with plague. He did this trick to remain in their temple of idols to destroy them and not to accompany them to the pagan's feast)."
90. So they turned away from him, and departed (for fear of the disease).
91. Then he turned to their aliha (gods) and said: "Will you not eat (of the offering before you)?
92. "What is the matter with you that you speak not?"
93. Then he turned upon them, striking (them) with (his) right hand.
94. Then they (the worshippers of idols) came, towards him, hastening.
95. He said: "Worship you that which you (yourselves) carve?
96. "While Allah has created you and what you make!"
97. They said: "Build for him a building (it is said that the building was like a furnace) and throw him into the blazing fire!"
98. So they plotted a plot against him, but We made them the lowest.
99. And he said (after his rescue from the fire): "Verily, I am going to my Lord. He will guide me!"
100. "My Lord! Grant me (offspring) from the righteous."
101. So We gave him the glad tidings of a forbearing boy.
102. And, when he (his son) was old enough to walk with him, he said: "O my son! I have seen in a dream that I am slaughtering you (offer you in sacrifice to Allah), so look what you think!" He said: "O my father! Do that which you are commanded, Insha' Allah (if Allah will), you shall find me of As-Sabirin (the patient ones, etc.)."
103. Then, when they had both submitted themselves (to the Will of Allah), and he had laid him prostrate on his forehead (or on the side of his forehead for slaughtering);
104. And We called out to him: "O Abraham!
105. You have fulfilled the dream (vision)!" Verily! Thus do We reward the Muhsinun (good-doers - see V.2:112).
106. Verily, that indeed was a manifest trial
107. And We ransomed him with a great sacrifice (i.e. ßÈÔ - a ram);
108. And We left for him (a goodly remembrance) among generations (to come) in later times.
109. Salamun (peace) be upon Ibrahim (Abraham)!"
110. Thus indeed do We reward the Muhsinun (good-doers - see V.2:112).
111. Verily, he was one of Our believing slaves.

Sunan of Eidul Adhaa
There are many similarities between the etiquette of Eidul Adhaa and that of Eidul Fitr. From among the differences are:
- One should eat something after the 'Eid prayer for Eidul Adhaa (as for 'Eid-ul-Fitr, it is Sunnah to eat something sweet prior to the prayer).
- The sacrifice (udheeyah) is done after the Eid salah and prior to the end of the days of Tashreeq following 'Eid-ul-Adha.
You can read more about the Sunan of Eidul Adhaa from the Pearls of Islam Tumblr site.

ZODIAC - Rasierter Affe 10"
"Another absolutely outstanding release from 7 Degrees Records (this time with the help of Amplified Anger Records), "Rasierter Affe" is the latest from Zodiac. They're from Bremen, Germany; so of course they draw comparisons to such revered acts as Acme, Carol, Mörser, etc.; and rightfully so. This is some seriously powerful metallic hardcore with a good dose of grinding intensity. Expect loads of churning power chords, a dash of D-beat, dark and discordant riffing, killer melodies with a Swedish tinge, scorching tremolo picking runs, vicious shouting/screaming, etc. Awesome recording, too. I have zero complaints. It's always great when a band can combine straightforward, brutal heaviness and chaotic energy with just enough catchiness to completely kick your ass, and Zodiac seems to pull it off with ease. That's all there is to it, really. Five songs, about 14 minutes, and it's all gold. Just check out the track below and if you're not sold, you must be deaf!"

ON JUNE 22 you published a story and an editorial in the Lake Sentinel on current Mount Dora cable television proposals before the citizens and the city council. What you describe as the ''need for less hype and more facts'' is right on target.
The Mount Dora CATV Advisory Committee is developing information needed for a responsible recommendation to the city council about choosing a qualified company to conduct a cost/feasibility study. The cost factors you quite correctly say we need will come from that study.

This month at Write.Click.Scrapbook. we started a new Saturday format. Each Saturday of the month we will focus on a different aspect of scrapbooking. The first Saturday of each month will be dedicated to journaling, the second to photography, and the third Saturday of the month will focus on design.
What does all of this have to do with me? I now have the happy privilege of bringing you a brand new sketch each month on our Scrapbook! Saturdays:
In addition to a new sketch, Scrapbook! Saturdays will feature a palette for color inspiration and a printable from our very own Beth Proudfoot. Beth always designs the cutest printables, and the best part? They're free! See today's post for more examples of what you can do with this adorable subway print:
We hope the new Saturday features inspire you. We want for our readers to join in and think of these new prompts as challenges to get your creativity kick-started. If you create something based on one (or more) of the prompts you can post your layouts to the Write.Click.Scrapbook. Flickr gallery. We will post some of our Flickr favorites on the fourth Saturday of each month.
I hope you are enjoying your weekend!

A few posts below I put up a picture of Noah getting a "time out" in his crib for hitting. The whole time out in the crib thing works ok, but he really doesn't seem to mind being in there. So after a morning of Noah throwing toys and hitting, we realised that it was time to try a "Naughty Chair". I thought he was too young to understand, but you know what? It kind of worked! Sitting in a boring corner for 60 seconds isn't much fun to a 20 month old. It made him calm down and forget about his school bus throwing fit moments before. I think we'll keep the naughty chair around for a while.

We use the fireplace as a naughty spot. And oh YES, Tyler spends time in there - for hitting and throwing. We try to redirect first, but oftentimes, he thinks the hitting is funny and a game, so off we go to sit and think.
We tried the crib, too, but that was WAY too much fun. He would ASK to go to the crib! Not a good time-out place at all!

Oh man...Zach has to get time-outs for hitting, too!
Maybe its a boy-thing.
Zach has hit the terrible twos a bit ahead of schedule.

Yesterday was Thomas's therapy and Dr. K. had said in an email previously that he wanted to address Thomas's cognitive deficits with both of us in the room. I was happy that he was going to take my email seriously that I had written a couple days ago about treating those symptoms of Thomas's.
It began with a lesson in schizophrenia for Thomas. Dr. K. told Thomas about the positive, negative and now cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia and quizzed Thomas afterwards on each one. Even I was pulled into the quiz which cracked me up because when I was asked about negative symptoms I drew a complete blank. So much for all of my education on this illness. I am terrible at quizzes though. The minute someone verbally asks me how I feel, what I think, or if I know something I imagine I must look like a deer in headlights because that is what I feel like inside. Needless to say it went like this:
"uh...um...uh...(thinking to self--WHAT IS AN EXAMPLE OF A NEGATIVE SYMPTOM??????) um....flat affect?"
I passed the test but wanted to kick myself for not rattling off every last one of them. Quizzes, the bane of my existence.
Then we went on to cognitive symptoms. I watched Dr. K. as he broached this subject with Thomas and I could tell he was struggling. I have seen this in the past when he has had to tell Thomas something about the realities of his illness. It's like he doesn't want to hurt Thomas's feelings and he wants to protect him. It's admirable and I love that he cares so much but I really wanted to jump in there and just lay it all out on the table. I believe Thomas can handle the realities of his illness. I've had many talks with Thomas about his illness and every time it has gone fine. I suppose I do a little protecting myself but I'm his mom and I'm used to breaking bad news to him and his tender heart and he handles it well every time. I believe the approach you have to take to talking about this illness is to come from a place of caring but not be sad (or really have emotion at all) about what you have to say. In this case the facts are harsh but when delivered in a matter-of-fact way they are easier to take on.
Thomas received the information well and was relieved when he learned that his terrible short term memory issue and his processing of information issue is due to his illness. Finally, an explanation for why he's struggled so much. I had never had this particular conversation with Thomas because it has always just been what it is. The family takes it in stride for the most part and just works with the deficits. Like with making dinner the other night, I stood by his side every step of the way and gave directions one at a time. Had Thomas had to make the dinner on his own it would have been a disaster. I love him and I work with him and I always will. I can't change that he deals with this so the next best thing is teaching him how to live with it.
Then, in therapy, it was quiz time again. How did Thomas feel about what Dr. K. had just outlined about cognitive deficits? He really couldn't put anything into words so Dr. K. asked him if he felt relief and Thomas agreed that was how he felt. Then Dr. K. turned to me and asked me how I felt about these deficits. Uh oh. Quiz time. My answer was "sad" and I immediately wanted to reel that answer back in because Dr. K. shot me THE LOOK like what I said was the absolute worst answer I could have given. He paused for a minute and then started to ask me something and then stopped and paused again and finally said,
"I am not mom's therapist so I won't question her about that."
NO! If I answered the wrong way then please, question me. WHAT HAD I DONE WRONG? WAS BEING SAD OR VEBALIZING THAT I'M SAD THE WRONG THING?? I looked over at Thomas to see how he had received that and it didn't seem to really affect him so despite turning beat red and feeling like my face was on fire, I stuck with my answer. Sad. Wasn't it okay to feel sad that Thomas has to deal with these things???
All in all the therapy went rather rocky, I felt, because I sensed Dr. K. trying very hard to protect Thomas's feelings. I guess I was just coming from another school of thought on this one and that was to get the facts out there and then clean up any aftermath after the fact. As such, we left therapy and all I wanted to do was explain to Thomas why I am sad about him having these deficits. After being left with my flaming face and accompanying guilt I felt I had to hurry up and explain to Thomas why I said what I said. When we got in the car I told him this:
"Thomas, I am sad for two reasons. The first is that you were dealt such a rotten hand and ended up with schizophrenia. I think it is so unfair and you didn't deserve to have to deal with this. I don't want you to feel like you have to protect me in some way, though, because I expressed my sadness. It has nothing to do with you as a person, I just hate this illness. The second reason I am sad is because you have dealt with this for years and for all of those years I didn't know that you had an illness and I thought you were just being difficult when in fact you were truly struggling with trying to remember things, among other things. I am sad because I yelled at you, I took away the things you loved and I was angry because you didn't do things like remember to do your homework or ask your teacher something or remember to be home at a certain hour. I am sad because I wish I had known differently and had treated you better."
He seemed to receive that well and I promised him that I would continue to work with him like I have since I learned more about this illness and how it affects him. As for therapy, there will be a couple more sessions and a few questionnaires to fill out over the coming weeks about what Thomas deals with. We were told, after being handed our first, that the next one would be 200 questions long. Thomas expressed to me after therapy how excited he was to be filling out questionnaires and I've got to say I am with him on this one. I want to weed through everything and figure out what's going on and see what it is we can fix and what it is he will have to live with for the rest of his life.

I LOVE this theme!
Hopefully I can bring it into my life more fully in the coming year.
Happy 2015 my friends!
My wife is in young women's and will LOVE this. Thanks for sharing your talents. YOU ROCK! :)ReplyDelete
Nikki, it's perfect!!! My name is Danielle and I'm a brand new YW District President. I'd love to use it in our girls' camp t-shirt! Would you mind making one in Portuguese? These would be the words:
Oh ye that: Ò vós que
Embark in: embarcais no
the service of God: serviço de Deus
SS Service: SS Serviço
Hugs from Brazil!
Would you mind sharing what font you used for this cute embark theme graphic. I love it and would like to incorporate the font with the rest of our YW stuff.
Thanks Lucy
