Vicki's got a brand new blog

One of the magazines I work for decided that each editor would have to write a blog. Oh, and we're supposed to post new things 2-3 times a week! HA

So I was the first to put something up, and if you'd like to read it, here's
the link

Actually, if you'd like to frequently read it, so that I get lots of hits, and become the Cool Editor, that would be great. I'm going to add the link to my toolbar on the right.

NOW FOR THE FUN STUFF!

Don't forget to read my new work blog. Often. :)

Self-Portrait Tuesday

This month's theme is Reflective Surfaces.

still crafty after all these years

Imaginary blog readers (IBR): Vicki, why have't you posted lately, have you stopped crafting?

Vicki: heck no. I am very busy crafting some holiday projects. I'm making Christmas Cards and also creating cool packaging for a gift.

IBR: Let's see the pictures!

Vicki: I can't post pictures because the recipients might look at my blog before they get their cards in the mail.

IBR: Darn, we love seeing your blurry low-resolution pictures!

Vicki: Have no fear, I'll post a pic of the packaging on Monday and the card a few days after they mail.

IBR: So we have only your witty banter to look forward to reading?

Vicki: I guess so. Here are some links to keep you occupied:

Cotton ball goodness over at Wee Wonderfuls.

Gift-giving guides at Thimble

Christmas cuteness at Moki's

I'm in the Black!

I am now officially in the black.

I've been tracking my Net Worth since July, and I now, for the first time, have more assets than I owe. I have a net worth of...... $39.30!

I know. It's exciting! ;)

In other news, I made a little holder for my ipod and bus pass. This camera phone doesn't do the colors justice. It is actually a very attractive yellow and yellow-striped fabric.
