Again, another 9 inch and 6 inch round- seems to be my most popular.
The bride wanted the stripes from the Winnie the Pooh color scheme shower cake- but "weddified"- she supplied the (silk) flowers, so I pulled the colors from there.
I'm not liking my background color- I need to change that- too dark!
I am guessing I will be making a lot of feather inspired items with these.
I used alcohol inks and mica powders to get the intense color and sparkle.

Left is my new work ThinkPad X200s
Right is my personal ThinkPad X61s
I have a thing for X-series ThinkPads. The higher resolution on the X200s (1440x900) is pretty amazing - also notice that the LED screen is much brighter than the Ultralight screen on my X61s. I'm not a fan of widescreen laptops or monitors for that matter (in this case it makes the X200s really long compared to the X61s) but the increased resolution is nice. The weirdly thick bezel on the X200s' LCD is oddly 1995. I'm not sure what to think about it.
Now I need to throw one of my extra Intel X25-M G2 SSDs into the X200s. The X25-M is absolutely epic in my X61s. The X200s came nicely configured - 1.86ghz C2D, 4gb RAM, 160gb 7.2krpm HD, Win7 Enterprise x64, Office 2010 RC, etc.
With only a few weeks until the NEW Ashington Leisure Centre opens to the public on January 2015, staff are busy training (and sampling) all the amazing facilities this centre will provide - including the amazing Tranquillity Spa!

I stopped at the Container Store today after another errand. It was my first time and I was apprehensive. I wandered the aisles for awhile, looking for useful things and trying to think about our storage needs. I was afraid it was going to be ridiculously expensive, but all together everything was only forty bucks.
Last week Andy got two brand new, identical monitors for his desk, and he gave me his widescreen. So now I use that as my main monitor, and my old, regular-sized one as the second. To fit the two monitors, I had to get rid of an IKEA dokument. I spent some time going through all the paper that had collected in two of the trays, using expandable folders leftover from my teaching days. I used one of them to collecting the growing pile of paperwork associated with all of the business stuff. That folder is now on the top right shelf for easy access/drop-in. The top level of the tray collected an assortment of trinkets and things, and some of them I put away and some of it I still don't have a home for. Nor do I have a home for the letter tray itself. It can go in my giveaway pile.
Today I bought a few clear plastic shoeboxes for storage in our bathroom/hall closet, because it is a mess, and the smaller bins I have in there are overflowing. I put one together tonight--all our medicine/pharmacy-type things--but there is SO much more work to do in there. Mostly getting rid of old makeup-type crap.
I also wanted some storage options for my desk, and I ended up with two medium stacking bins plus a slim paper file. Previously I had upright things just leaning, and an assortment of crap holding the vertical stuff up. Which meant things were in a jumble and constantly falling over. So going vertical with the smaller stuff storage was important. However, pretty much all of the storage pieces were large and flat, or large and tall and wide--and I need smallish and vertical. So the bottom one holds random stuff like pens, earphones, etc, while the top holds the stapler, tape dispenser, notepads, and the tiny bowl which has work keys and binder clips. The top left shelf used to have a precariously balanced full pencil bin, and now it's two pen cups, kleenex, and envelopes.
Overall it looks and feels SO much clearer and cleaner! I love that feeling. Except that then I look around at all the other places that need this kind of attention and I feel depressed, because it's everywhere. Oh well, baby steps. This is really good progress for me, and it'll be good motivation to keep going, in small bits.
Oh, and if you need some inspiration, flip through Unfuck Your Habitat. Seeing that occasionally has gotten the declutter/cleanup bug seeped into my head here and there.
To celebrate Valentine's Day or better known here as The day of love and friendship. I show you all the set of cookies I did last September 2011 among cookie friends. These helped to give a special gift to Lisa aka "The Bearfoot Baker" to thank all her and her husband kindness at CC.

Well, I've decided that I need to lose 8 lbs. in the next 4 months.....before my doctor's appointment. It's not easy. I love food. I did enjoy my Chicken Salad Fruit Plate at the VCC. Jim ate the country buffet. For supper, I ate some baked chicken, roasted potatoes & onions with some Publix coleslaw. I drizzled a little Mrs. Griffin's BBQ sauce on the chicken. It was delicious.
I went to the Senior Center today and paid my dues for the next year....only $20. I attended the first meeting of Happy Travelers with Steve as our new leader. I paid a deposit for a trip next May to Niagara Falls & Tulip Time in Michigan. I've been to Niagara Falls twice before, but I'm sure this will be a good trip.
Then I went to the swimming pool at Stone Creek for water aerobics class. Becky taught the class again this week since Laura is on vacation at St. George Island. My stomach muscles are sore since I've used weights in the water twice this week. It's too bad that my FitBit doesn't count my steps in the water. I know I've walked over 5k, but my FitBit only says 3200 since I wasn't wearing it in the water.
John Peter Sullivan (born January 3, 1941, at Somerville, New Jersey, USA) is a former catcher and coach in Major League Baseball. A left-handed batter who threw right-handed, Sullivan stood 6' (183 cm) tall and weighed 195 pounds (89 kg) as an active player. After graduating from Bernardsville, New Jersey, High School, Sullivan signed with the Detroit Tigers in 1959 and made his debut with them in the waning days of the 1963 season. He played in five major league seasons with Detroit (1963-65), the New York Mets (1967) and Philadelphia Phillies (1968), appearing in 116 games, with 59 hits in 259 at bats, batting .228 with two home runs and 18 runs batted in. His only substantial terms of MLB service were as a reserve catcher for the 1965 Tigers and 1967 Mets, for whom he played his only full season in MLB. He played eight years at the Triple-A level. Sullivan began managing in minor league baseball in 1973 in the Kansas City Royals' farm system. During six seasons, he rose from Rookie ball to Triple-A, winning four league championships and compiling a stellar .601 winning percentage (434 victories and 288 defeats). His only under .500 club, the 1978 Omaha Royals, who finished 66-69, nevertheless topped their division and defeated the Indianapolis Indians for the American Association championship. In 1979, Sullivan began a 15-year run as a Major League coach, serving with the Royals (1979), Atlanta Braves (1980-81) and Toronto Blue Jays (1982-93). He was brought to Toronto by Bobby Cox after Cox' first term as Braves' manager, and remained with the club under Cox successors Jimy Williams and Cito Gaston, coaching on the Blue Jays' 1992 and 1993 World Series championship teams.
