Oy!

It's been a tough week, y'all. I'm not really going to go into details, but craptastic would be the best way to describe it. Besides one seriously mortifying incident (don't ask!), there's nothing that I can really pinpoint as being horrific or unbearable, but let me tell you I am feeling low. Or as Hubz would say - feeling "swing low." I just can't shake this funk (not the caffeinated kind - that Funk I lurve truly). Hopefully this will pass and I'll be back on the up and up (or uppers) by the weekend. In the meantime, I'm going to wallow - don't try to talk me out of it.

Favorite Things Friday: Red Stamp's Computer Desktop Calendar

Since this is my second Favorite Things Friday post in a row with calendar in the title, you might be picking up on the fact that I'm slightly obsessed with calendars, planners, organizers, etc. I'm already on my third planner this year - I seem to find something wrong with all of them, but so far my newest one seems to be working well.




Anyhoo, back to my new Favorite Thing...I'm a huge fan of redstamp.com they have great stationery and desk items. I also use them to create special save the date emails, but I won't divulge all of that information in this post. I recently stumbled upon their blog and discovered every month they post a free link to a cool and creative calendar image you can use on your computer desktop. They even have different resolutions available so it works with different monitor sizes. Just follow the simple instructions and voila, you have a very stylish computer desktop.








I can't wait to see what April's design looks like. Enjoy!

Silence Really is Golden

So today I got to conduct one of my infamously long and boring training sessions and I basically talked from 10:30 am until 4:30 pm today. Now, talking this much may not bother some (like hubz who can TALK), but for me...my head hurts, my ears are ringing, my throat is sore and I've gotten no other work done today. I knew I was going to be doing this and it's probably the 20th time I have with this job, but no matter how much I prepare, all that incessant noise spewing from my lips really sickens me...mentally and physically.

There is one upside to today's rant...since I am not yet talented enough to yak and sip my chai at the same time, I ended the training session with almost a quarter of this morning's chailala left (and yes it tastes just as good cold). Sweet!

So, please let me enjoy the rest of my chai and consider me on the DO NOT CALL list...at least for tonight.
