Fashion Show

I was on a design team who designed this dress for a fashion show.

It was sponsered by IIDA (International Interior Design Association) as a fund raiser for cystic fibrosis. This is a picture of the dress we designed & our amazing model! Woot! Our fashion designer team member was incredible - she made all the ideas come to life with her talented sewing & design skills. It was a huge success. We won 'Most Ready To Wear' catagory.
There were 750 people in attendance.
I had sooooo much fun.
I have such a cool job.

Here are shots of some of the other dresses: They were made of tile, wallcovering, wood veneer(best of show!), glass, carpet, 3Form, etc. Wow!!!

WANTED: Free Stuff

Two nights ago, I was hungry. I was hungry & I didn't want to fix anything for myself. I went to Panda Express & ordered a side order of orange chicken & potstickers. When I got to the window to pay, the Panda-worker was so apologetic for the long wait (I didn't wait long). I told her it was fine, no worries. Then she proceeded to tell about how many people had yelled at her that day because they had to wait too long & since I was so nice, she would give me my potstickers for free. Hooray! I love free stuff.

Today I went to Einsteins for a Six Cheese Bagel, toasted w/ plain cream cheese & an OJ. I waited in line to pay & when the gentleman in front of me got to the register, he turned around and grabbed my ticket right out of my hands, handed it to the Einstein-worker & said, I'm paying for hers too. More free stuff!!!


If any of you out there who know & love me have free stuff to give, this is your big chance. Apparently, this week I am wearing a big sign on my forehead that says "Give me your free stuff". Soooooo... what do you have that I need? I'm available for dinner tonight. ;)

Cup Cakes

I made cup cakes last night.
Cup cakes are the best.
Yum.

One of the COOLEST things ever!!!!

dead is dead

I've been told my computer is dead.

I have not tried to turn it on.

Seems silly to think MY pushing the button will work when no one elses will.

Disclaimer: Image is not my actual computer...

thank you 'google images' for supplying me

with a picture that expresses my feelings about this

'fine situation'.

It WasWindy

What's this I see? Did someone plant a shrub next to my tree?

Alas. The Wind has blown down a branch of my tree

Now my tree is naked on one side.

Here's a close up. Ouch.

Wait til you see it next year!!!
I called the local radio garden show.
They said I can prune the other branches this winter so the tree does not look so lopsided.
Heh, heh, heh - I get to break out the bow saw.
My nice neighbor is going to use a chainsaw to finish the job today & chop up the other branches so the broken piece can go to green waste.
Thank you nice neighbor.
Boo - hiss nasty wind!
