My days have been spent working on getting all the product ordered for my new classes and writing the instructions and step outs, getting the presentations ready. The boxes are arriving... my UPS guy is the best!
I got the keypad for my Ipad for Christmas and just love it. It has made such a difference in how efficient I'm able to be. The Ipad screen has a touchpad keyboard but I can't type very fast on that because your fingers can't feel where they are. Now I'm speeding along and I love how easy composing documents and presentation are on the Ipad. Can you tell I'm a fan? :)
This past weekend all evidence of Christmas disappeared... I never felt so sad about it before! It made me sad that the Christmas season was over and the kids were really gone. As I was cleaning up, I found these Lego guys that I got Brandon for Christmas. He had left them behind for me to find and so I decided to incorporate them into the display on the shelves. One of them is even a medic... I start crying every time I look at them... I'm so sentimental. Brandon and Alicia are both out on maneuvers for two weeks. It's so strange to not be able to have contact with them. Brandon did send a text to his dad that said he measured the temperature of the toilet seat and it was 35 degrees. Ha! I guess it's pretty cold in Texas right now!
I sold our treadmill over the weekend also and had to unbury it in the basement. In all that cleaning I found a bag of shoulder pads. How old must those be? I also found this little lampshade. I've never used it and don't even remember getting it! Love the bees on it... just perfect for a new little vignette in the kitchen. So cozy!
I love this date... now we just have to wait until 11.11.11 and then 2.2.22. Do you think we'll still be around then? It sounds like a million years from now! :)
I love the dish and glassware!

I love my iPad too! I haven't tried the pad because I don't find myself sitting at a desk to use it. Santa brought me a 27" iMac so I'm loving that sitting in front of me ;) I'm going to try and make it to your March class(es) in Texas when you come to Waco :) hugs from Conroe, Texas!

I love the lego guys...haven't seen the green ones but haven't bought any lately either...have many tubs of them currently stored away waiting for grandkids someday. Probably about the same time I'll be able to get an Ipad...lol.

So glad you love your iPad. My husband is the product marketing manager for iPad at Apple. He loves to hear how people are using them and I told him you were using your's for your presentations when teaching classes (I got to see you use it last time you taught in San Jose). I love that keyboard you have. I might just have to get myself one. :-) And the lego soldiers are so dear. Thanks for sharing them with us.

I can't believe how clean your desk is! How do you do it? I am a messy creative person...organized but messy...

I love the lego soldiers and that lamp is great in your kitchen. Thanks for sharing. I would love to be able to take one of your classes this year.
