Stall tactic.....

Hello all - I'm finding that the topics for my upcoming posts can really be enhanced by adding photographs. Since I am challenged in this area, it's going to take me awhile to pull some together.

With that in mind, and so no one thinks I fell asleep at my computer, this post will be about random thoughts I've had in the last few days.

I visited a favorite gift shop today, only to find out that they had recently been robbed by two women and a LITTLE GIRL!!! The little girl, about 5, was THE DECOY!! They had clearly 'cased the joint' and knew the layout of the store, who was working, the best getaway route, etc. In the 14 years that the shop has been open they had never been robbed. I was upset for the owner, but even more outraged that people would use their own children for such despicable acts! Not much of a life ahead for her.......so sad.

On a lighter note.........

I'm glad Lee DeWyze won American Idol - I've been a fan of his from the beginning. Hope to hear good things from him very soon!!

I'm a little disappointed that Nichole S. won dancing with the stars - it somehow seems unfair for someone with experience to win. The show is becoming predictable - the 2 top couples and the third little engine that could (think Marie Osmond, Kelly Osbourne) make it to the finals (though I was ecstatic last year when Donny Osmond actually won!!)

I'm cleaning out my closet.....ugh......what a chore! But, on the plus side, the things I'm giving away go to a place where the proceeds feed the hungry and homeless in my town. So not only will my closet be more organized, but hopefully people will benefit from it.

I start a new job on Tuesday (within the same company) and I'm really looking forward to it! A change of pace is almost always a good thing!

And last but not least, I finally get to pick up my MAC TTB stuff tomorrow! I've had it on hold waiting for Nordstrom's half-yearly sale......I've been drooling over the pages and pages of spektra.net posts of people loving their hauls. Congratulations to everyone, and thanks for sharing!!

That's it for today - I promise to have more interesting posts soon, photography inability notwithstanding!
