Thought of the Day

All things being equal, choose the easy way.

Finally Friday

Thank goodness its Friday. I haven't worked in the past 2 days nor have I been online. My daughter has a terrible cold and isn't sleeping hardly at all. I had a hour and half of sleep from 9pm last night and 6am this morning. I plan on catching up on my sleep and nursing Payton back to great health.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Viva Paper Towels

Thanks to CVS - I tried VIVA Paper Towels several months ago when there was a great ECB offer. I love these towels and they are my favorite. They are extremely soft and durable even when wet.
