Unexpected organizing

Jul 14, 2009 12:55

By ten thirty this morning, I'd done something I'd not expected to: I'd organized my stationery/cards/paper collection/stickers/envelopes caddy. I was looking for a few things as I'm in a big week of getting out letters and a couple of little gifties, and I couldn't find a damn thing. The caddy was a wreck. But now it's organized, at least for a ( Read more... )

Good for you. I hate organizing things!

And I love the license plate holder.

Well, it had been moved a couple of times and the inside contents had shifted all over the place. It was a total mess! This evening I opened it up just to beam at it, knowing what was in it (for one thing) and the various stacks for cards, cards with envelopes, postcards, scraps of paper to be used with stationery making and envelope art, stickers... it's so happy!

The license plate holder was a bit, "Huh?" but that's why I posted. Glad you enjoyed!

Dearest -- Speaking of cards -- thank you for the lovely birthday card! And, I so appreciated the phone call this weekend. Believe it or not, we had a crazy weekend!!

You are so welcome!! Sorry you and I didn't get to talk, but maybe this weekend? I'm troubled to hear that it was crazy. I hope that you were able to have some birthday downtime, but maybe not...

XOXOX

No, no, not crazy bad, crazy busy!! And I had an awesomely rocking birthday. We went to a wedding Saturday night, the whole family, with good friends, and it was just a very, very happy occasion! It was low-key in terms of ME which was absolutely perfect. I ushered 50 in fabulously!

Best feeling, isn't it?

I have a license plate frame that says "Here's Something You Can't Do" and another one that says, "Who's Flying This Thing? Oh Right, That would be me," but alas, I've never figured out how to fit them on Oregon plates and still have my stickers showing. :(

It really is!! I'm a pack rat when it comes to potential envelope art and my occasional stationery and card-making extravaganzas, plus I buy odd cards and postcards and then hoard them, but I do love sending random postcards to friends at times just for fun. I had to just open the caddy and smile at it this evening. I'm just inordinately pleased, lol.

Sorry you can't get yours to fit! A dear friend designed a bumper sticker pretty much just for me at Cafe Press that says (on a purple background for me; I have a purple obsession) I'd rather be writing fanfic. I've decided that I'm going to get my car washed in the next couple of days and after that, I'm putting it on my car. It's high time! :D

Oooh! Coming out! Good for you. I'm way in the closet. My closest friends and family know I'm fannish (because...lifelong geek) and they know I'm writing something, but that's as far as it goes.
