Monday.

A new edition of the AEzine/Life Art newsletter went out yesterday. If you are not receiving it by email you can check it out here in the archives. This week was a basic update of projects and information that has been on my blog for the last couple of months.

For some reason the formatting program I am using is not a fan of adding images to the newsletter. I have received emails from some people letting me know that the text is covering the photo in the section about the Everyday Life photo book. Here's the text from that section:

Hoping to figure out what is up with the formatting of larger photos for the next issue.

It's a snow day here today - a couple more inches fell last night. Simon is so excited to be home and to get out and play in a bit (first he wanted to watch The Backyardigans Mission To Mars).

I am packing to leave for a trade show this week. Packing always seems to include cleaning as well.

Some of you have asked about the Keep Calm and Carry On poster you can see in the background of the photo posted on Friday's weekend creative prompt. I ordered mine from ReForm School (looks like it is currently out of stock) which is a great little shop with all kinds of goodies.  The white frame is from Ikea. EDITED: Here's another source for this poster: sfgirlbybay (etsy shop) or from Barter Books in the UK.

I have been getting some emails regarding Five For Fighting's "What Kind of World Do You Want" campaign. I think I posted about this sometime last year but there seems to be a resurgence of interest/emails. Five for Fighting is donating money to a variety of different charities (including Autism Speaks) based on views of videos (read the "How this works" page for more details). There are tons of different videos on there that are inspiring and moving. Check out the videos here.

Happy Monday!
