Hi Dear Folk,
Well I guess Blogger went and did it, now you cannot even revert back to the old interface. First of all my labels are gone and I guess I'll have to enter them back in manually, why have they always got to try and fix what was not broken, really. Blah! Blah! Blah!
Do you have a Moleskine? I have one, it's small, red, has a ribbon marker and a wrap around elastic, where I write down all sorts of odd things, statistics, meanings of words, crochet patterns, what makeup to buy after watching one of those You Tube videos on how to do your makeup when you're older, and so on and so forth. I thought I'd share with you a few of the random things written in my Moleskine.
