I’d really like to win this! Would make my week a bit better: have been sick and today they stole a vital part of my bike, so that’s really ugly. Bad week. Should have stayed in bed today!

Holy Moly! Over 150 comments already! I’m such an organizing junkie! But… then again, I’m a magazine junkie too which makes for cluttered “un-organization”. Go figure! LOL

Hi Laura – I would love to check out that magazine. Sounds like there’s some great stuff in there. I don’t think I’ve posted here before but wanted to let you know I follow your blog regularly & love all the inspiration. I also wanted to thank you for the tutorial on how to crop photos to different sizes to print at home. It was so helpful & I finally learned something I’ve wanted to do forever. Thanks again!!

Very excited about the bonus issues – can’t wait to see what’s inside! Love your recap of your island, it’s cool to know what you’re working on… perhaps that’s because I’m such a scrappy voyeur? 😛
