Isn't it crazy how quickly time passes???
I really enjoyed my alone time at GriFF's on Friday... It got off to a rocky start, though! First, I found out that my bank had charged me $132 in overdraft charges because there was a pending charge on my account. So, even though it hadn't cleared, it was making 4 other very small withdrawals generate NSF fees of $33 each!!! What??? Long story short, I finally heard back from one of the bank officers who said he would credit me back $125. Then I made him explain to me how their system works so I can "avoid this in the future. Never mind that I'm really going to avoid it by changing banks... =)
Anyway, that aside, I took a nice, long bath, and got a few things organized. And I did some charcoal sketching!!! It's not nearly done, and I've left it at GriFF's, so I can't take a picture to post today (thanks for being interested, Cheryl!!!).
Here's a fun new thing I learned about on Cheryl's blog today... AFI has listed the Top 100 Movies of all time. The idea is to highlight the ones you've seen. Here's mine!!! I'm putting the ones I have seen in italics, since Jozzie hasn't taught me how to change font colors yet... =)

Cool list! I'm printing it out for my mother in law. She's a movie buff! She'll love it. Sorry about the bank thing. That stinks!
Two of my favorites especially thta you haven't seen are The Graduate and It Happened One Night. I would recommend both of those highly!
That was a fun little exercises, wasn't it?
Hope you're having a GREAT day!!
Sorry about the bank stuff! Hate that! OK to change fonts....scroll back up so you're on top of the blogger....see CUSTOMIZE? Double click on that. Then on the left you see tabs? One of them says "Fonts and Colors". Now, go play!!! I think you can figure it out from there....
