Yarn Storage
August 17th, 2008
A few months ago, I took advantage of the local yarn store’s closing sale. When I got home with my bounty of yarn, I stuffed a few of balls of yarn into a plastic storage bin in my office. Problem was, the bin wasn’t big enough for all of it.
This weekend we did a major cleaning and overhaul of my office. I finally made it through several boxes that had been stalking me for years. When we were done, I turned around to see the coffee table empty inside and the lightbulb went off to put the yarn in there. It all fit, looks wonderful and when I want some, all I have to do is grab a suction cup, pull up the glass and take out the one piece.
Leopard Spaces @ Work

Spaces @ Work, originally uploaded by criana.
I love the new Spaces feature in Leopard, aka Apple OS 10.5.
1) Lotus Notes
2) VMWare Fusion
3) iTunes
4) Apple Mail, Safari and iChat
I’ve gotten pretty quick with using the keyboard shortcuts to jump around screen.
[Update: I stopped using Spaces while at work, it became more of a pain to remember which window had what folder view open and having to move back and forth. I might revisit this in the future with a more concrete plan for each space]
