Free Valentine's Goodies!

 

I want your valentine's day to be special, like you are!

I'm a big sucker for valentine's day or any other day we can get mushy and show others how much we appreciate them, in fact I don't need a designated day to celebrate appreciation.

                                               

Some time ago I tried my hand at creating my own greeting card on my computer and wrote out step by step, even how many spaces to go down to place the photo and the words. You probably aren't as old as I am so don't remember those old fashioned manual typewriters.  We used to do all kinds of things on our typewriter which actually called for counting the lines. The typewriter carriage had a return. I remember the sound of the bell. Ah, memory lane. :-)

Sorry, my mind does wander. :-) Instructions can be found at Triond in the article  Make Your Own Beautiful Valentine Card.

If you prefer a ready made one you can find them online and simply print or email them.  I found a web site loaded with coloring pages, screen savers, tips and cards at Valentine's day freebies.com. 

So what are these pictures about?

Because you mean so much to me I picked up a few little things just to express my appreciation. I only have three items so the first one to claim them gets them. Only one prize per person. After the first to comment has chosen their prize I will ask that you please email me with your address so I can mail them out. I only wish I could give everyone something. You truly mean the world to me. Take care and God bless. Happy Valentine's day!




Won't U B My Valentine?

An Organized Home for 2010

Now that I have my office more organized and have shelving for my many books I have been looking at organizing other areas of my home. It is my goal to become more organized for 2010. I find that when things are organized I have better concentration.

The children are all grown, and though I have plenty of grandchildren who visit, I now have the space to create work areas that make for more efficient time and space so I can spend more time doing what I love; spending time with the grandchildren, researching, reading, and writing. My laundry room is in my basement. My bedroom is upstairs. I can't hear the washer or dryer when the load is completed so I have to go downstairs and check, lug the clothes upstairs, fold them on the couch and then lug them to the upstairs bedrooms.

I have been dreaming about a laundry room on the main level so I would not have to go up and down two flights of stairs every time I wash clothes. I want laundry room shelving so that everything will be right where I need it and while searching online to get ideas I found a site that performs FREE in-home consultations. Since the consultation is free, (I love that word!) I thought I'd look into the cost of laundry room shelving in my home. You simply go to their site and type in your zip code.
