NOT a "Paid Advertisement"!

WOW!

It's like Christmas here today!

I came home on this dreary wet day

and found my mailbox

wide open and stuffed full...

not happy about the "wide open" part

as the box contained a couple of parcels

that anyone driving down the road

could have carried off.

Thankfully

they didn't!

 

 

So-

the next conundrum was--

which parcel to open first!

I went for the feet

and opened the box from

Herrington first.

You see

we live at the beach

and I am a barefoot kind of gal.

All. the. time.

The shoes

are the first things to come off

when I get home anywhere that they can.

As a result I have tough soles

and in winter

dry, extremely thick calluses

that crack and are very sore.

I also hate socks

but I do wear pantyhose

and the calluses snag and tear them terribly.

But NOT ANYMORE!

 I ordered this

from Herrington.

It is well, for lack of a better description,

a battery operated sander for your feet!

That little blue roller (it was all blue!)

rotates and well...sands....the calluses right off.

No cutting-no rough edges like I have after a pumice stone

or hand-held "scraper".

This little gem leaves your feet

as soft and smooth as a baby's bottom.

And I speak from experience!
I ripped that package open

jammed in two batteries

and went to work right here at my desk!

The next pic is not for the faint of heart...

EWWWWWW!

Here's the pile of dead skin that gadget sanded off.

AHHHHHH!!!!

The color is wonky as I had to make it darker for it to show up.

The only way it could do any better-

is to have someone else do it for you...

hello, honey?  you'll be home at what time?

WINK. WINK!

 

And while I am talking about Herrington

I will plug their Contigo Travel Mug

 

I have tried A LOT of travel coffee mugs.

I have thrown out a lot of shirts with coffee stains

from said coffee mugs that leaked.

NOT THIS BABY!

Last week

I filled it up-threw it into the pocket of my purse

raced to work

stuffed said purse ON IT'S SIDE in my desk drawer

and 45 minutes later

remembered the mug was in the purse!

UH-OH!

But I will have you know

NOT ONE DROP leaked out!

You want to sip--

you push that little button.

You let the button go-

and that sucker SEALS!

It keeps the coffee hot, too!

 

So--check out Herrington.

I've had nothing but awesome service and products from them.

 

Ok-so this is a CRAFT BLOG

so let's get onto some crafting!

I don't have a lot of Cricut cartridges

but

I do have a small collection.

While the boxes are nice-they do take up a fair amount

of room.

And those cartridges are a tight fit into the little storage slot

and I am always afraid I will break something in the cartridge

taking it in and out.

So I checked out all the items online

for Cricut storage.

Of course what I wanted---was out of stock.

EVERYWHERE.

I did manage after a month or two

to find one on eBay.

And I got it.

And it came today.

And I am IN LOVE with it, too!

Each long pocket

holds two sets of books & key pads

Each short pocket at the end of each long pocket

holds two cartridges.

I have not done it yet but

there's a little clear pocket on the front

of each long pocket

for you to put a label in!



This holds a total of 12 cartridges.

I have this one almost full.

So I may be on the look out for another.

It keeps it simple and works the best for me

I do not want to waste time fumbling through 20+ cartridges and pads.

Keep It Simple, Sharon is my mantra.

And for me---THIS IS SIMPLE!

And I simply LOVE IT.

I know-I said that already.

Oh-and on the outside edge---

there's also another clear pocket for a label!

No missing what's what.

 

That's all for today!

I am off to put my pampered feet up

right after I label my cartridges

and maybe have another cup of coffee as well!

 

Until next time,

happy stamping and scrapping!

Blessings,
