Rambles From Work

So, I realized that I have been severely slacking in the blogging department. Not really a whole lot going on that would be of much interest to anyone... Maybe I will get better at this... I hope so. I did good for a while, but just haven't thought much about it lately.

Anyhoo, here is what has been going on lately.

I am at work right now, and my average handle time for calls last week was just over 19 minutes - yay - lol. That is a lot better than it has been, and 7 minutes under what my goal is, so I am super stoked about that. Its because I transfer any call that I can though and I have been leaving early a lot - lol. But still.....

On Wednesday, I went to grandma Millie's and we were talking about scrapbooking and I told her that two of my favorite things to use on my pages and cards are buttons and ric rac. There is nothing better than ric rac on anything - lol. I adore ric rac. I found that the quilting store sells it by the yard, and it is cheaper than it is at wal-mart, and it is made by Moda. And BROWN. I can't find brown ric rac anywhere. That totally made me super happy.

I have been scrapping a lot more lately and getting my craft room all set up. We live in a house that is almost 150 years old. There is a nook off the living room that my grandparents (moms parents) used as a TV room, and we have mainly just used it for storage - the storage unit was emptied in there, and there was a computer desk and that's about it. It was Jeff's room when he lived with us, but that was a year ago. We have pulled out the huge desk and took it to the dump, and brought in 4 cabinets and counter tops and that is my work area. There are lots of bookshelves, and storage for all my supplies and projects. I am super excited about it and need to get it set up the rest of the way. It is great to not have to sit in the corner of my bedroom to craft. There is a huge window right by the counter too and that gives great light in the afternoon. I am almost through all of the stuff that I have in my room, and there are still a bunch of boxes to go through, but I will get through it eventually. I am looking for lots of fun storage containers and things for all my stuff. I want the area to be 'me' - retro/vintage feeling, lots of fun bright colors and stuff. I think that I need to make a trip to the antique shop and see what I can find there. Maybe next week.

I can't believe that Charlie is already almost one. How time flies.

I haven't heard from my stalker freak for about a month. About fuckin time he got the hint and left me alone. just thinking of him makes me shudder....

I suppose that since I am at work, I should probably get off here for now and pretend to be doing something work related.....

Maybe I'll be back later... Hopefully sooner than 2 months from now - lol
