There was still no blue on the second day...

Yesterday I forced myself out of the store, across the mall to a place called the Paper Source. Dear Readers, if you see a Paper Source location near you, run! don't walk. It is amazing. I purchased a couple of books, a litle paper and some mumbo jumbo. All in an hours lunch break of fun. I was glad to have been able to see their beautiful papers in person before we move...now I feel great about the possibility of ordering off their site.

I came out of the store totally inspired and renewed. The trip reminded me of how important it is to get off of the internet and into the world to look around. I had been putting off the trip to PS for some subconscious reason.....I wish I had gone in their weeks ago!

See you tomorrow!

Hi Julie,

I am so glad you were refreshed by the store! Does this mean you have sold your house and the move is soon? Great if you did!

We have a couple of Paper Source stores in SF. LOVE that store! I like their motto: Do something creative everyday.
