The filing cabinet has been sold! A small price to pay for a life-changing organizational tool.This metal filing cabinet has four drawers and takes standing file folders (you don’t have to purchase hanging ones.)

However, the description of the iPod GPS does not mention any audio directions. Although some people are really into the display–I want something to remind me … Read more

I turned in the thesis last Thursday and have my defense this coming Thursday…we’ll see how it goes! Am feeling weirdly emotional and transitional in the wake of it. I wake up in the morning and go to my computer, then think–I don’t have to spend all day here…and then I don’t! Friday I prepped … Read more
