I had a thought last night that I should have already sent in the documentation for the Seasonal Palette quilt thing and indeed that was true. thanks all for the timely reminders, LOL. So I pulled all this stuff from my blog, threw them into a table in Pages, threw in some photos, made a cover sort of thing. Re-read the thing and realized the binder they’re using is 11×14 so I reformatted everything (no big deal) and then I did the smart thing and threw it onto a USB drive and let Staples print it. Now I just have to trim it down to size (they only use 11 X 17 paper), stick it in an envelope and make it go away.
While I was there of course there were other things calling me. I knew I didn’t have anything to mail 11×14″ anything in. Right along side that was a small package of fold-your-own boxes that are just right for 8.5 x 11 paper! How perfect is that for organizing notes and hand outs and such? They’re plain white boxes. As I was returning to the copy counter I spotted a really cool little kids backpack on sale. Sorry little kids. Mine now.
Stopped at my folks which means I picked up the book I need to start the online class in a couple weeks: Household Stories by the Brothers Grimm. I flipped it open to Snow White and allowed as how none of the many current film version end anything like the real tale, so we had a brief read aloud of the end. Properly horrifying it is, but a satisfying end to the wicked step-mother.
My other part of the Dover shipment was: The Fairy-Faith in Celtic Countries by W.Y. Evans-Wentz. Yeah I’ve gone over the edge.
