I MOVED!!!

I just moved to these lovely apartments in Hillsboro, OR. They are VERY nice and I look out on a park from all of my windows.

EXCELLENT!

This was by far the easiest move I have ever made. I was super prepared and had everything boxed ready to go when the elders quorum swooped in and load the truck in under an hour. Then when I got to the new apartment the high priests group (the elders were watching their children while the wives were at women's conference) unloaded the truck in under an hour. **Please note there were no wheelchairs or talk of Kolob during the unloading of the truck.

SPEEDY!!

My new apartment is fantastically nice and big. I had no problem at all finding places to put all of my kitchen accouterments and towels.

SUPERB!!!

Pictures to follow once I dig myself out of the boxes.

New Addy:
-give me a shout out and I'll share it-

Tip of the Day Returns!

I once emailed a daily tip out to anyone who subscribed to the service. These tips varied in topic from household cleaning to make-up application. One man's tip was another's useless information. however, the tradition continued until I became to busy to do it on a regular schedule.

Many said I should write a book containing all of my tips, and should I ever really write it I could make millions. But since I'm a Hite, "and very proud to be one," I have copyrighted all of my ideas and will write the book when I have more drive, ambition, time, and/or energy.

Today, I give you the tip from January 13, 2003:

What do you do when you want to write in a book but you can't because you want to retain the value so you aren't fined, or you can sell it back? This solution is simple. You can either NOT write in the book and fail the class(which would suck in an exceedingly great manner), or you can take a trip to Office Depot. What magical product am I in search of? Why, a No. 1 pencil of course! Pencil leads are numbered according to their softness, one being the softest and three being the hardest. Number 2 pencils are required on standardized tests because they leave enough lead on the scantron to be read by the machine. A No. 3 pencil would not leave a dark enough mark. A No. 1 pencil would leave a darker mark than the No. 2 pencil would. So then if I am trying to keep the value of a book by not marking in it, why am I going to use a pencil that will make a darker marker? Because the pencil lead is softer one can write without having to press hard. Thus not distressing the pages of the book. The other joy of soft lead is that it erases extremely well. Any eraser (though I would recommend a plastic eraser) will take off those marks with ease. Try it. It WILL work!!! Happy Monday!

I would also like to amend this tip by saying this is also a great pencil choice for marking on music.
