So I'll be very surprised if I even have to worry about where to put them inside this fall. ;)<br />If Iggy marries Karma I think everybody will just have to come--including Guinness!! ROFLMAO!!!<br /><br />Lynn--LOL! Yes, Karma has white hair for my dark clothes and dark hair for my white clothes. I can't win! :)<br />I love getting good old fashioned letters in the mail. I still have quite a few people who write once in a while and a few who write regularly. But, these days, the regular writers are the ones who don't have internet, of course. ;) <br /><br />Carol--I originally started making the "bookcards" when I was figuring out a way to attach something smooth to write on for the inside of a handmade paper card because the glue wasn't working that day--LOL! The idea came to me to sew in a sheet...which rapidly became 4-6 sheets (or 16-24 pages both sides) and a place to write letters. <br /><br />I don't always have handmade paper made up, so then I started buying printed 12 X 12 papers and cutting them down for covers. I have found that if I have 5 sheets or less they will mail for regular postage. If I don't decorate them to make them any fatter--hehe! I can do all the prep work--all the cutting and folding--and have them ready to just punch the holes and pick some embroidery thread. Then I can sew them together while I watch TV.<br /> <br />Must be 2-3 years now that I have been making them. I am sure I am not the first person to come up with this idea. They're almost like a small, one-signature booklet. And I made dark lined sheets and cut them down to size to use as writing guides on the blank paper. Thanks for asking. Obviously I love using them! :)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-62513360872855410312011-07-01T00:39:58.874-05:002011-07-01T00:39:58.874-05:00Looks like you've been busy!!!

I hope you find room for them and that they grow. I have never had any luck growing indoor herbs. <br />I like the red journal.

I think they have been on 41 years. Once they invented tape recording TV shows then I didn't miss it. Well, I could "half-watch" as I did other things--LOL!<br /><br />There used to be 4 half hour shows on ABC (Ryan's Hope, AMC, GH, and OLTL). When they started switching over to an hour that was just too much for me! I picked my favorite one and quit watching the rest of them. Thank goodness! hehe!<br /> <br />Funny--Dagan watched it with me when he was little (that's where we had a lot of discussion on birth control, marriage, cheating, drinking, lying, etc) and when he'd catch me watching it now he'd laugh because some of the same people were still on the show decades later. I just informed him that AMC got cancelled and he teased me about how I've been saying I should quit watching for years and years and now I will actually be forced to...and Susan Lucci is being forced to retire--ROFL!! ;)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-64017345689918104062011-06-28T15:07:04.668-05:002011-06-28T15:07:04.668-05:00Yep, One Life To Live is being cancelled, too.

One Life To Live? I have been watching All My Children for 40 years and now it's being cancelled in September. Is OLTL going, too?<br />My electric bill will go up, too. Oh well. Not much one can do about it, eh?<br /><br />Jeannie--I do, too! And blizzards are awesome, too--if you are inside and safe and warm. ;)<br /><br />Tori--I haven't had any money to spare for many months, so it was fun. JetPens I get free shipping when you are over $25.00. Me and a pen store...$25 is easy to hit--LOL!<br />I am taking breaks and taking things VERY slowly. Especially since I've been on the really painfully sore side for so long this spring, I really don't want to set anything off--hehe! ;)<br />Hope you're sleeping well, too!<br /><br />Djan--Ha! You saw the Karma hairs! One big one that obviously missed MY naked eye--LOL! I've always loved calicos and black & white cats and black ones and tiger striped...I guess I like them all. :)<br /><br />Desi--I haven't even played with the nibs yet! Gives me something to look forward to, tho. Yes, been a very nice Monday. You, too!<br /><br />Nikki--Yup! This IS my sanctuary here! If I try to ignore the health issues as much as humanly possible (which I do), this is heaven on earth for me. :):)<br />My desk and file cabinet are just the cheap pressboard ones from Office Max, but they do the trick and they're still basically in one piece--ROFL! ;)<br /><br />Iggy--ROFLMAO!!! Karma has become mysteriously a bit friendlier the past couple months...LOLOL!!! ;)<br />You'd make good family, sweetie!! :):)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-2613125467151191432011-06-27T13:13:33.826-05:002011-06-27T13:13:33.826-05:00Wow... those pots might be big enough drive ya pot...Wow... those pots might be big enough drive ya potty!<br /><br />Oh.. you like a fine line huh? <br /><br />:)<br /><br />Are you from Tennessee?

You've got an apartment where everything is set up the way you want it, it is HOME.... a cat that loves you like crazy and he is also HOME... a corner desk with all that room to craft... and that is a very cool cabinet, by the way. We need some file cabinets around here. Problem is, we want the pottery barn ones, and we just cannot afford those!Furry Bottomshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06126096393524594755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-55304562068960214752011-06-27T08:48:28.369-05:002011-06-27T08:48:28.369-05:00Oh the days where we wish we were our pets!

I haven't written with anything as elegant as these for a long time. <br /><br />And Karma is one kitty who knows who is boss (her!).

I do...Karma always makes me smile; silly kitty! :)<br /><br />I do the same thing; wait until the end of the month, then usually buy a little something. I hadn't been lately; we need to save some money, as you know. But I have this month treated myself to a couple of items. I plan on saying more when they arrive though... Could be a few days, could be longer... They have to come from somewhere in the US.<br /><br />Anyway, I hope you enjoy your new pens and such! :)<br /><br />Good luck with the paper sorting. When I first got my shredder I had so much paperwork to sort through that I filled two boxes just with stuff that needed to be shredded. It's so easy to get behind on sorting paperwork... Last time I let myself get behind it resulted in three solid days of shredding paper (my shredder has a function where it cuts out if it gets too hot, so I did take breaks; had to so it could cool down and work again, LOL!)<br /><br />Make sure you take plenty of breaks in between sorting stuff; you don't want to be sitting still for too long then suffering for it afterwards!<br /><br />Well, at least the herb pots will be plenty big enough for the herbs, and you shouldn't need to buy bigger ones as they grow! :)<br /><br />I love thunder storms. Didn't used to, but they grew on me, and now I love them. Funny how that can work sometimes.<br /><br />Glad you're getting plenty of things done. I got quite a bit done this weekend myself!<br /><br />Hope you've been sleeping well.Torizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04965005679599352165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-23789125024492425732011-06-26T23:34:14.311-05:002011-06-26T23:34:14.311-05:00I love those kinds of thunderstorms!!!

LOL I had to laugh when you said she refused to apologize for anything. Typical cat. LOL<br /><br />Good luck with your file organization and shredding. I did a little of that myself this afternoon while catching up on Friday's episode of "One Life To Live".<br /><br />Your bookcards are a nice idea. I know you enjoy writing letters in them. They look great.<br /><br />Those are pretty big pots. You'll have herbs growing all over the place soon. <br /><br />Have fun with the nibs and pens. Your new journal is beckoning you to write with them.<br /><br />We had a mostly cloudy day today, but it didn't rain. It was cooler than it's been, and that's a good thing. We got our electric bill yesterday, and man, oh man. Those hot, humid days were killers. :(<br /><br />I hope the thunderstorm passed without too much damage in your area. Stay safe!AliceKayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12027650364526343030noreply@blogger.com
