Funny Friday - Knee Slapping Belly Laughing Funny - I promise

Copywrite prlog.org

So far this week I've managed to fight a bug, lose a day and get a whole lot of laundry done.  So in lieu of my missing 24 hours (honestly, I thought yesterday was Wednesday... all day.)  My computer calendar actually had to prove me wrong.  So today I thought we all need a good laugh.

Here's my disclaimer on the following video:  *It's British humor.

That being said, here's the video.  My sweetie was doing a training for his sales agents yesterday (which I thought was odd for a Wednesday - because it was really Thursday.)  He wanted enlighten his agents and help them start of 2012 on the right foot.  So a video about teamwork seemed most appropriate.  And since I really appreciate the teamwork in a recent custom jewelry order, I thought this would be appropriate here too!  So enjoy... TEAMWORK!

Since I also mentioned that we are now in 2012, and I've heard and read a lot of "stuff" about the world ending in 2012... here's another funny!  I bet the cavemen are rolling over in their tombs/graves laughing right about NOW!  LOL

Hope your Friday is Freakin Hilarious!  Remember, laughter IS the best medicine!
Have a fantastic weekend! {Hugs!}

Really Pantone - Tangerine Tango - REALLY

If you know me, you know Dawn doesn't do orange (much).  The only thing I do orange is eat them (and preferably without seeds.)  So imagine my er, uhhh, delight when I read that THE color of the year is Tangerine Tango.  It's not a subtle, stand in the corner orange... NOPE!  It's a bold, shut the front door orange!

For me as a designer, if I'm playing in Pantone's sandbox, I guess it's going to be another color challenge.  A whole year full of color challenge.  But seriously, tangerine tango?  Honestly, I usually do my own thing anyhow.  I can't help it I'm married to turquoise and purple (swoon.)  But my creative muse also dances when I pull those colors out of my bead boxes.  So in all honesty, I pay attention to the predictions, but I don't base most of my creations on that alone.

I truly love my friends that love orange.  Our differences make us more fun.  And what they design with orange always amazes me.  Mainly because I just don't think like that.  I cannot wait to see what new Pantone inspired pieces are designed by my friends and what they pair Tangerine Tango with to really create a special look.  After all, orange is truly a happy color.  And we all need a little more "Happy" in our day!

So while I finish a few special orders from Santa Claus, I'm putting my plan together for 2012.  In that plan, is to challenge myself to incorporate Tangerine Tango once in a while.  Who's going to tango with me?

Hope your day is fabulous!  I'd love to hear what your plan is for 2012!  Hard to believe it's less than 3 weeks away... zoinks!
