    By the way, I enjoyed reading your blog, Michael. How do you like the Martelli rotary cutter? Do you have the mat as well?
    It's been shipped but I haven't gotten it yet. I want to get the ruler as well as the mat....but hey...$20 was all I could afford atm. :P

    I recently joined one of the local freecycle.com
    I offered a box of decorative painting books, they were gone the first day:)

    I will have to remember to request at some time. Right I have to keep in mind that I may have sell and don't want to add anything I may have to pack.
