Don't Buy Bic Shavers, buy their Pens

while shaving in the shower my BIC shaver took  off a slice of my skin. I blame the razor. This has never happened to me and now I know why.. I use Venus razors and only bought the Bic ones because I was at BJs and it was a great price. I will be returning them to BJs and am sending this post to Bic. 

 


Artist?

I'm creative I've been told. I also love to be organized and help others get organized too. I've. Even going to Tag Sales, Savers, for items I can make into lovely storage items. Color is important to your mood and since I suffer from depression -17 years now.-you have to make yourself happy. Painting storage items and selling them makes me happy too. Yes. It's Sold!

Organizing is really Fun-I promise you!

by Leslie Jacobs


What do you need to organize? Paper? Music? Kitchen utensils?

Here is the secret to making this type of chore -FUN!  

Grab a box and fill it with items you need to organize. Then bring the box, another smaller box for the donate , and a trash bag for the toss away. Bring all of the items to your living room or where ever you keep your media. Play a favorite song or TV show and then organize to your hearts content. 

 

 


Trump voters...what a moment

by Leslie Jacobs in ,


So, I walked into a consignment store looking for some furniture to paint and sell. I had never been to this store, and it looked filled to the brim from the outside. I walked in and looked around as two men talked. I surmised they were a friend and the owner.  

The store was filled to the brim and as I walked around I found I really liked a curio cabinet although it was more than I wanted to spend.  

I don't know who started the conversation but I found out that the men both voted for Trump. The owner told me he thought the NYTimes, the Washington Post and the Hartford Courant were fake news. I was shocked- and mentioned I thought I was smarter than the two of them. I believe the owner was shocked that I said this...and told me his wife also has a Masters degree. I guess sleeping with a degree holder makes you smart too. -NOT. 

They also didn't believe the women who were sexually harassed by Bill O'reilly. Even when I pointed out he's been paying woman since 2004.  

No, the owner said when your that famous and rich-woman throw themselves at you.  Really??? Actually, it was Bill who was tossing his goods around...but who deals with facts anymore when your dealing with Trump supporters.  

The  owner then wanted me to stop the conversation...and of course I love listening to stupid white guys tell me about women and life. But, he made sure it was stopped...he wanted me I feel to shut up and buy something. 

When I asked are you tossing me out...he said No.  

So one point for him. When I told him I was writing about this...he asked for my credentials and I have thought I didnt have any...but I gave him my business card.  

He told me as I left the store...If you write about this I will sue you. I said Freedom of Speech and left. 

Now, the only reason I put this on my blog was because he threatened to sue me...and you know how I love publicly!!  

 

 


Two artists into One

by Leslie Jacobs


My mother had a friend named Simon Newey-he's a photographer in NYC and gave this to my mom years ago. In 2011 some offered me $100 for it. I said no.  

So for years it has moved around my house-and finally I've come up with the solution!
