I LOVE (love love) Daylight Savings Time

I went out at 7pm and the sun was still shining. Amazing!  And who needs sunshine at 5am?  Not me that's for sure.  I say we go to daylight savings time all year long.  Keep all of the sunshine for when I'm awake.

My only complaint is that as I'm getting older I notice a bit of "jet-lag" each time the time changes.  Anyone else have that issue?

What do you think?

I bought myself a present!

I rarely spend money on myself.  It's a mom thing I guess.  But I decided that I wanted to get a dragonfly necklace and so I started hunting on Etsy for something like a friend has.  The end result is nothing like what I was looking for... I think it's better.

I joke that I designed it myself.  What really happened is that I saw elements that I loved in two different necklaces and I asked the owner of Kateemarie if she could make a custom necklace for me and she was happy to do it.  She even took some lovely pictures of it that she posted on the listing.

I Have a Blog Button (or two)!

My new friend, Libbi, from the blog The Funner Life made me two lovely blog buttons.  They're over there on the right hand side of my blog.  Aren't they sweet?

Libbi has generously offered to make blog buttons for her readers.  She's also having a fantabulous series of giveaways on her blog.

Thank you Libbi!  They're beautiful!

Our school district has the second graders do a Flat Stanley project.  This year I was heading to NYC for a short business trip so I took Flat Son along with me.  Real Son was a bit jealous.
