These new ads by Intel are great! I especially like the people singing the jingle at the end.

And for the weekend I leave you with a list, recently posted on Apartment Therapy. This is something I hope to be doing in the very near future.

1. Taking a Bath at Lunchtime
2. Raiding the Fridge whenever I want
3. Being able to hit up Trader Joes or Target in the middle of the day
4. Working in Pajamas (which I did today for the first time, until I had to go to the dentist)
5. Not commuting anywhere, especially in the rain
6. Making lunch at home (and being able to put a roast in the oven in time to eat before 10pm)
7. Making a mid day Yoga class
8. Getting to be alone for the day in semi stillness (and not coming home ragged and exhausted)
9. Getting to play whatever music I want
10. Janel inspired this one: Getting to hang out with my kitty.

Oooo! I’m so excited! Now I can show you what I’ve been up to for a month and why I’ve been neglecting the blog so much. Late, last night Jack and I finally opened our Etsy shop! Check it out at Orignauxmoose.etsy.com!

Jack has put up two great vintage prints and I posted my 3-part “Mark Makes Me Merry” mini-series (mentioned here). I’ll be posted more from the whole first, 15-part series, today. So, go on… *nudges*
