I got a postcard from France!

One of my good blog friends, Alexandra, wrote a recent blog post about picture postcards that she made herself! She made them from stamps and added her own quotes to them and they were absolutely gorgeous. She is so creative and crafty!

She asked in the entry if anyone would like a postcard. I commented and said that I would love a postcard if she wanted to send me one! Today, a postcard came in the mail from France! It was a handmade postcard, hand stamped and made especially for me and I love it!

The quote on the front around the stamps says, “The three essentials of happiness are something to do, someone to love, and something to hope for…”

The quote is special to her and she told me why in the message on the back. It was so lovely and it means so much that she sent me such a lovely post card! I love getting gifts from my blog friends in the mail because it makes you realize how special the friends you have made really are.

Moko also liked the post card but after a while she tried to lick and bite it. I think she started to get bored after she read it all. Silly cat. :P

Thanks Alexandra!

In my bag.

Today, I was hanging out with my friends and the topic came up of the silly things that we had in our purse. My friend, who teaches elementary school, had a pack of crayons in her purse. Me, who is a math teacher at heart, had a million pencils in my purse. Another friend of mine who is a paraprofessional was carrying around her home hours log sheet. We found it all rather adorable that we carried around the things near and dear to our professions.

So I decided that I’d share with you what you might find in my purse. Here is what I am carrying around with my on a daily basis. Well, minus my camera because that’s usually in there too. Obviously it was in my hands at the time of the photo.

What's in my bag? (by caitysparkles)
From left to right, top to bottom:
my purse, my inhalers, benadryl, school medical kit (gloves and gause with instructions), a book, wallet, checkbook, daily planner, moleskine journals, breathspray, chapstick, a crayon from my friend for St. Patrick’s Day (haha), my phone, my sparkly hair clips, nail file, my crazy amounts of pens and pencils that I don’t need but insist on carrying with me at all times, and my keys

So… what’s in your bag?

Josh showed me something really interesting tonight. He wanted me to listen to this techno song (even though we are both not very partial to techno) but he promised me that he had a purpose. He told me to really listen to it for a while and hear how it went. So I did.

Then, Josh told me to listen to this song.

I love when people are able to take songs and create entirely different and beautiful music and remixes from it. I wanted to share it with you.

Do you have a favorite remix?
