Complete randomness.

- How is it that my office keeps filling up? I haven't been scrapbooking much lately and haven't even been scrapbook shopping in months...yet I keep finding little stashes of product all over the place that need to be put away. :)
- If you need a little retail therapy and are in the market for some scrap goodies, check out this! (Not at all affiliated...just a fan, lol!)
- I recently realized that I've never picked strawberries. Many, many other fruits...yes. But, never strawberries to my recollection. Is it worth it?
- So. What did you do for the Fourth? We were utterly rained out here. Well, technically, we had a couple severe thunderstorm warnings, a tornado watch, a flood advisory and a flash flood warning. And then it stopped pouring rain and hailing just before the local fireworks show times. Amid all that, the Loveland show ended up being rescheduled for the next evening...which was beautiful and perfect and much appreciated! I have some fun pictures that I'll try to share soon.
- My layouts were up over on the Good Grief Blog recently and I forgot to tell you. I'm telling you now. ;)
- I think it's awesome that Fort Collins continues to place so nicely in the 100 Best Places to Live in America dealio. I know that we love it here...nice to know others do, too.
- Someone recently shared this article with me and I just had to pass it on...it's awesomely perfect!

Great site that you linked! Strawberries are DEFINITELY worth it to pick yourself. Used to make pies with them. YUM! We blew stuff up on the 4th. Luckily didn't set off any neighbors' alarms like we did last year. LOL! Saw Ft. Collins on the list. My hometown was 100th.
I totally agree on the littering thing - my parents are "snowbirds" and I keep an eye on their place - those newspapers and flyers force me to stop by more than once a week to keep their place looking lived in. Drive me nuts!!!
I LOVE that story on Divine Caroline. I have seen it before, but it always makes me chuckle. I have 3 little strawberry plants in my back yard - you are more than welcome to come up, visit us, and pick a few berries. LOL. Hope to see you soon. We need to do another crop one of these days. :)
I agree about the littering. I put a small sign near my doorknob last year that said "Please no flyers" or something to that affect and for the most part they listen. I hate that people throw things on our lawn and front step expecting that we want to pick them up.
