This Friday, I happened to be "in the city" small though it may be, and had a plan in mind before heading to Michael's Craft Store. A few years ago, pearl necklackes interwoven with satin ribbon...

    Started a new job 3 weeks ago. Working retail now instead of office work, so it's a big change from sitting on my butt all day long to now on my feet all day. There are 6 of us total that work in the dept. I like all of them until one of them said something very rude which was a little...
