Happy Birthday, Monkey!

Opening Birthday Presents {7th birthday}>

Today Monkey is 7! WOW! It seems like I was just saying that about Teenager. I hope to write something more substantial later, but right now I’m still recovering from being gone for 3 days.

64/365.2011 {Beloved Ladybug Pen}

This is a pre-scheduled post, since I’m away at Walk to Emmaus.

This is one of my favorite pens which was a gift from someone. Honestly, I can’t remember who gave it to me (SO not like me to not remember who gave me a gift, especially something so beautiful and something that is so beloved.) I always thought it was so pretty and when I got a case for my bible where I could keep pens, I decided this was a perfect pen to keep in there. It makes me happy every time I see it. It no longer works, but I still keep it in my bible.

61/365.2011 {Ladder}

Today around 4:30, I’m leaving to go on my Walk to Emmaus. I will be free of cell phones, a watch, the time (period), my camera, my laptop, any electronics. I will return Saturday night. A few weeks ago when I found out that I was going, I went ahead and scheduled my posts for while I’m gone, so show me some love while I’m gone! 🙂

Random Geekiness

Don’t think Geekiness is a word, but it’s my blog and I can make words up as I like! Over the last few weeks have come across some cool stuff and I just thought I’d share.

Steven Rodrig’s art is unique and quite eye-catching. The heels were my favorite of his, but I suggest checking out his other work.

I love this keyboard found at Sweet & Nerdy.

When your mind is numb from a long day, this is fun to mess with!
