My 15 seconds of fame...
So, we've all heard about Mitt Romney's argument with a reporter about Lobbyist running his campaign...Well, guess WHERE that little argument happened??? That's right...at my little Staples store in Columbia, South Carolina...Our District Manager called about an hour before the whole 'thing' landed on us...A bus load of reporters, his body guards, and his 'handlers' arrived first and then he made his entrance. I handed him an Easy Button and shook his hand and he said that I was very kind...hmmm the presidential candidate thinks I'm KIND! Those were some nice words from a nice man. He was supposed to make it to the upstate but they were snowed in. I really don't mind being second choice because it was really exciting!




(we might have jinxed him, though...he received only 15% of the votes...eekk! Sorry!)







My 15 Seconds of Fun...

The night before the big Romney 'visit' it actually snowed in Columbia! Lane looked out the window and screamed 'SNOW'! like a little kid and went running around the house to find his shoes! We got bundled up and went outside to play. It was dark but you could see the quarter sized flakes! We must have took a hundred pictures but this one is my favorite. You can really catch Lane laughing because I was blinding him with the flash ( I was holding the camera in front of us)... That's Lane for ya...brings a LOT of fun and laughter to my life!




Take time to enjoy some laughter and silliness even if there isn't any snow...find a reason!!

Baby Kitty, the jungle cat!


Just thought this was a great picture of Baby Kitty trying to hide! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with anything going on...just a really cute picture that really grabs the personality of this cat. We 'inherited' him from one of my customers at work. He and his siblings were found in a parking lot in Columbia. This was the last of the family and I was suckered (didn't take too much to twist my arm) in to making him a part of the family. He was skinny, sick, flea infested...and now he is a strong healthy playful cat.



Just wanted to make sure that you all knew that I have an updated website now! It's officially up! It's at palmettocrafts.com. A friend of Lane's really did a great job! I'm hoping it will help me with my business (if that's really what you can call it at this stage)!!


So, take an minute and visit it and ....you know the drill...



ENJOY!
