Stuff That Makes Us Happy - Pens & Paper & Lists OH MY!

I have been rattling around in my head some ideas for general, non photo specific blog posts that we can share with everyone.

Well I have finally worked through all the details in my head, and we just want to share with you the things that make us happy!

Yah know - the raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens kind of things.

Hopefully we can get one or two posts a month up like this!!

Another reason that I wanted to share this is to show you the things we really like together.  If you just look at the he and she page we have a lot of opposite tastes, but there are many things that we just Love love love!

Who can resist a Sharpie?

I know I can't.  In fact I went to Staples yesterday to get some organizational "things" and came out with Sharpies.  They were a deal, what can I say?

So now they are proudly displayed in the new pen cup that I bought at Staples to help me get organized!

OH THE CHOICES!!!

I love 'um.  The fine point, the smell, the bright colors.

They write on anything - anywhere.

I might start signing my checks in Sharpies!!

But alas - you must have something to write on with a Sharpie.

Yup - what better medium then a POST IT!

Even better, a traditional yellow post it.

Another Staples deal yesterday that I could not live without!

Now they are conveniently displayed in the new Post It corral that I purchased to help me get organized!

And finally.

I am ashamed to admit it almost - you must combine the Sharpie and the Post it to make that PERFECT to-do list.

I have to admit, I was NOT a list person - like ever.

Then along comes Brandi.  The list Maker.

She converted me.

So this morning, I sat down at my newly organized desk and made not one, but two lists using my yellow Post Its and my teal Sharpie.

Could anything be more perfect?

So now I have a personal to do list and a photography to do list.

Time to get crackin I say.

Two more things.

Please do not judge my mis-spellings on the Post Its.

And --- Did you know ---

that you actually retain more information if you write it on a yellow sheet of paper.

That's why all my Post its are yellow.

Happy Saturday Everyone!
