Will I ever have another post with pictures? Oh probably, if you are especially good and kind. I could possibly be bribed with Rainbow Twizzlers if you are so inclined. But, as for now, I did not break out the camera today so this is a blank post.
Today, I found out that I am supposed to write Continued... for my reports in italics. I was irritated and thrilled. Irritated because it is one more little step that I have to do with the mouse because I cannot figure out the shortcut for it but thrilled because the sight of the italics just give me a shiver of delight! The italics are like a beautiful love-letter font. I think it is typed with Times New Roman. Lovely.
We are positively melting in this heat wave. I known that I should not complain because usually the whole summer is around the current temperature, but really, if we are going to have temperatures like this, I ought to have an in-ground pool. Someone should speak to my husband about this. Thank you.
If it seems that I have been possessed by silliness, it is probably because I hang around with two crazies all day, the oldest of whom said "we are wild" tonight in between gasps for air as they danced all over the room. Who needs TV when I have them for entertainment?
I am actually starting my projects tonight if I ever get off of this computer. However, I will not be able to share them until I get the package sent out. I don't think the recipient reads this, but you never know. I wouldn't want to ruin her surprise! So on that note after this little bit of fluff that I have written I am off. Have an italicized evening:)

Lol Shawna love your post! I didn't read the title of your blog, until the post said "Hol" and I was like?? Who is this? Haha, then I went back and saw it was you:) I have thought about central, but haven't done anything with it yet. I want to try to get something in at Prince Street; but I keep waiting until I can purchase the better looking packaging:)
If you double click on a word to highlight it, and then hit Ctrl + I, it will italicize your word in less steps:)
I know EXACTLY what you're describing. But I can tell you how to avoid it. I go to the Camp Hill location on Wednesdays, of course, cause it's half off.
The line can get pretty ridiculous there as well! BUT, I go exactly at nine am. There are plenty of carts then and I don't have to wait in line. I would say the line starts to form around 9:30-9:45. I've never had a problem when I got there at 9.
I have to admit, I don't 'always' have great finds. But I go every week and not just to that store but also to a couple Goodwills which sell a lot of clothes and housewares that Target doesn't sell. If you get a Goodwill 'shop n save' card (for about $5) you can get the money you spent for the card back in one purchase and it lasts for one year.
I'd say that I get about 3 really great things a week on average. But I look for a lot of different things when I go so there's more for me to choose from.
Right now, I shop for maternity clothes, back to school clothes, Christmas gifts (from Goodwill cause somethings are new in the box from Target), possible refashions, shoes, kids gear and furniture.
If you're only going for one thing in particular I can see how you might be disappointed.
Gosh, I could go on forever about thrift shopping tips. But I'll stop there.
Hope that helps:)
