A PROJECT & UPCOMING CLASS...

This past weekend was great. I didn't have the opportunity to complete everything that I would have liked to, but it wasn't a total loss. Yesterday I overslept, but still managed to get my family of 6 to church on time. Thank goodness! Service was awesome and I'm looking forward to Womens Discipleship tonight.

On to the project...This is something that I came across while reading through my blog feeds and had to try. It's very practical in that it has very many uses, such as a grocery list, reminder/to-do list, scratch pad, etc...It even has a spot for your pen/pencil and a pocket for receipts. It's quite the little multi-tasker!
