Stealing Ts & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #655
I admit it. I am a thief. I have been stealing Ts anywhere I can find them. Ever since the T on my laptop keyboard quit responding to the gentle tap-tap-tapping of my fingertips, I have been forced to copy and paste the letter T every single time I need one. And you know what? We use a lot of Ts in the English language so I am becoming quite an expert at letter larceny. No Ts are safe from my copy and paste game. I will steal them from Google, from news articles and Facebook posts, from email messages, from your websites and from my own. Whatever window happens…

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Pearls & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up On the Edge #654
Last month, we saw all things sheer and this month we are honoring the world’s oldest gem, the pearl. For our purposes, however, you don’t need to have genuine pearls. Fake and faux or plain old pearly plastic beads will do just fine. But if you do have genuine pearls to share, please show us those as well. I love pearls and have a few pieces with authentic pearls but most of my pearly things are undeniably and obviously fake pearls of the common plastic bead sort. Remember anything goes here. We are just having fun sharing our pearly pieces! What is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book? The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book is…
