Dona la vita
Deborah Kaye Haines is coming up on her 5 year anniversary for her pancreatic + kidney transplants and her daughter Meredith (a friend of mine from high school) lovingly wanted to dedicate a piece of art to her mother and her courageous story! Congrats Deb and a big thank you goes out to her donor Patrick for his life-saving donation! It’s truly amazing that perfect strangers have the compassion and love in their hearts to give their precious organs to those in need. It’s so inspiring!
Dona la vita: Donate Life. Be an organ donor and be a hero to those in need!

Flor
Flor…yep, I said Flor, not floor. It’s the colorful, modular floor covering perfect for the Do It Yourself-er.
er, um….perfect for people like me who are sick of their current boring living room rug and are looking for something new and fun to brighten up their living space. ;)
We are getting a 6×9 foot area rug similar to the picture to the right >>> The style is called “Toy Poodle”…if you haven’t checked out flor.com, then you should, because 1. It rocks, 2. There are so many types of rugs you can make and be as creative as you like, and 3. It rocks. ;) There is also a design tool where you can mix and match tiles virtually…be careful, you may get carried away – I did.
Oh! I also highly recommend getting samples before you buy, that way you can see the actual colors in person…thats what we did…and it’s only 5 bucks which is a pretty good deal for a live preview.
Yay!

So last night Bobby and I went out to dinner with my friend Libby, her fiance Casey and like 18 other people I’ve never met (most of them from Toledo)…we went to La Bruchette (a Mongolian Food BYOB on Ashland/Blackhawk Ave) and it was really good food and fun times. There was like a massive amount of food and wine and everyone was so cool. One of the things I wanted to make sure to check out was CourtneyReagor.com…one of the girls brought a card for Casey (since it was his birthday) and the illustrator that made her card was this Courtney person…so I just looked her up and she has some pretty interesting and funny illustrations on her webpage. Ya’ll should check it out! :)
