Friday Freebie

Well, looky here, it's Friday again. The second half of this week went pretty fast, I can't say the same for the first half. I have now completed a full week at my new position and I finished teaching my first class at Madison College. That's pretty exciting. I'm very much enjoying my new position. My new PI is just like the last, she just lets me do my thing. I feel like I'm so much more productive when that happens. I've gotten a lot done, but there is a lot left to do. But that's okay, I like being busy again, it makes the day go by so much quicker.

My class at Madison College also went fairly well. I'm not sure. I had one no show and one student that only showed up for the first day, but all the rest of my students seemed fairly happy with everything. Well I'm sure they were as happy as they could be given the limitations of the classroom. But hopefully it went well. My next class is in two weeks at night downtown, so hopefully it will be better. That means I have to go get my Faculty ID, I've been putting it off. So I'll have to make some time.

I've also been working on custom order. I had to place a bead order, so I'm getting as much done as I can before the beads come in and then I'm going to be working like a mad woman. I'll only have a month and a half to get this one done. I sure hope I can pull this one off. Fingers crossed.

But enough about that. Let's get to today's freebie.

This is such a neat freebie.  This pack contains 1 quick page.
 
Don't have My Memories software, don't worry about it.  You can use my promo code, STMMMS11215, to get $10 off the My Memories Software and then an additional $10 off any purchase in the store. That's a pretty cool deal. The My Memories folks have some really great scrapbooking things. And even if you don't scrapbook, the software and extras are really awesome. I don't scrapbook, but I love the software to make interesting blog post pictures. I even used it to make some labels for my homemade granola bars, so J wouldn't have to guess flavors anymore. Just use STMMMS11215 to get the discounts.

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend and stay creative.

Well, I haven't done one of these in a long time. It's been a crazy week. I ended my position in my old lab and I started my position in my new lab. It's been a transition, but luckily my new PI kinda let's me do my thing because I've done this a few times before. I'm glad she trusts me enough to let me go on my own. It's made the transition a lot easier. And hopefully I'll be able to get back into working on a project as soon as the lab is all set up.

Hmm, what else? The weather has cooled down quite a lot here. 80°F on Monday and 59°F today. And it's October, so we all know what that means, HALLOWEEN. I've had my Halloween decorations up for a while now, but with the cooler weather, it seems to much more real. I still have a few more things to do (because I love Halloween and I love to decorate for it), but the majority of things are done. Now to just get that costume finished. Another thing to add to the list of what needs to get done.

But enough about that, let's get to that freebie, and it's a Halloween one.

Oh my, it's Friday again. This weekend is a busy one. This weekend is graduation. J is graduating. Well, technically he graduated in December, but this weekend is the ceremony. We have a lot of things planned for this weekend. Dinner, ceremonies, etc, etc. And on top of all of this, it's also J's birthday. So today I'm making him some boozy cupcakes to celebrate. Yum! I'm so proud of everything he has accomplished and I love him so much.

Okay, okay, I'll stop with this sickening lovey stuff. Not too much else to report. I'm about 70% finished with my custom gold gauntlet. Now I'm just waiting on more studs so I can get that finished up. I'm loving the way it looks (want to see? head on over to instagram). I'll hopefully have a few photos soon, hopefully of it completely finished.

Other than that, I don't have much. I know exciting. But that's fine, that means we can get to that freebie.

Wow, it's Friday already. This week has been crazy! It seems like I've been busy every single day, oh yeah that's right, I have.

It was my birthday on Wednesday (Don't forget to use coupon code BIRTHDAY to get 20% off anything in my Etsy Shop). It was also my last class and the class decided to throw me a surprise birthday party (I knew about it, but it still very nice). We had cake and punch. We laughed and enjoyed ourselves. It was lots of fun. I really am going to miss all of them. I'm probably going to forget that class is over and just show up next week. I'm sad it's over, but I'm so proud of them. They accomplished so much in such a short period of time. They will rock it.

Speaking of birthdays, J got me a new camera. A Canon EOS 70D. I'm in love. I've only had it 48 hours and I can't put it down. It's quite the upgrade from my 10 year old Rebel XT. So expect a ton of photos, not just on here, but on my Instagram and Facebook pages. Right now they are only of the animals, but I promise to take some photos of beads. ;-)

But that's enough about that, let's get to today's freebie (I'll share more about this weekend on Monday).

Is it Friday?  Boy this week seemed like it took forever to get through, maybe it was just me.  I'm just glad the week is over and it's time for the weekend.  We don't have any plans, but I'm looking forward to sleeping in a bit.  I know it's Superbowl weekend, but neither J or I am really all that interested in it, so we're not doing anything special for it (it was also a very bitter end to the GBP season, so there are a lot of people in WI who don't care.)

Maybe we'll have some time to work on my new studio.  It's slowly but surly coming along.  I should share some photos.  I'll also just work on some beadwork and a custom order I need to get done.  And maybe we'll get our new treadmill so I can start running again (our neighbor hood doesn't have any sidewalks and the roads are terrible, so I hate running in the winter).     

But enough about me, let's get to that freebie.
