Chit-Chat, Some Kind of Onederful & My Tools (Freebies 4U2)

Well, I decided to take a few pics of my set up in my office. The office is the smallest room in the house, but it's where I spend the majority of my time. Right at the moment, I am in front of my screen and my husband is watching netflix on the floor...about to fall asleep. He graduated from waiting for me out in the living room, to waiting for me on the floor of my office...poor guy, but he doesn't like going to bed without me. I know...I'm horrible!! (but horribly focused).

Here is my Wacom tablet...and YES, I am a LEFTY!!! My pen has various attachments that I switch out depending on what I am drawing.

These pics are not great, but I am taking these photos with my ipad people! I need a great camera app, but I haven't found one as of yet. If you know of one, please let me know -; That weird glowing thing is not a UFO or ghost, it's a glowing ant farm!! They have been hard at work.

My shelves. One is for our HVAC company records and one is for my stuff, but both are filled with teaching memorabilia. The pic below is me right now. Yes, I am in my cute ASU Victoria Secret jammies (no sexy at all...hehehehe) and as you can tell, I had a little trouble taking a pic of myself  with the ipad...it is heavy and quite awkward! Me at 12 midnight....the circles begin to form...LOL!! Sorry to scare you tonight bloggy  friends!!!

ANT FARM UPDATE:

Totally TUBE-ular!!! This is without the glow...pretty cool, huh? I find myself staring and marveling at these little guys!!

OKAY, something totally awesome...HERE are some of my Bloggy Facts and stats

This is going to be extra exciting and her stuff makes such great personalized gifts...perfect for a colleague or teacher (-;

Another cool techy thing...
Have you noticed the red ribbon at the top of each post, the large rewards ribbon, and the tab that says, badges at the bottom left of my blog????


Have you? Have you???

You must sign up...it's FREE & really fun, especially if we all participate in what is called, PUNCHtab. It allows followers to earn points for visiting, liking, commenting and more! The points can be cashed in for coupons to places like Starbucks and Barnes N Nobles!! The badges tab allows your followers to compete to earn special badges and awards for visiting your blog...sooooo cool!!




I have also added code that allows visitors to change the size of the text within the post. Ever been to a blog and thee text size is teeny??? Well, with this, you can give your readers the option of changing the text size!!
