My $2 Craziness fixer

I have been looking for a way for some time now to make my own earring holder, wall thingy. I needed to hang my dangles up because having my two year old running around with them was driving me crazy. And I didn't need any of them to get lost, I mean there are only so many Clearance earrings out there people ;)
So during a dollar store trip I picked up a photo frame, and a microfiber cloth that has a mesh scrubbing side to it. Take the glass out and cut cloth to fit on the backside of your frame. I wish I had a nail gun on me, but that's the reason for improvising right. Using good ole thumb tacks I secured the cloth on to my frame pulling and tightened the cloth as I went.

And there, with a whole $2 smackers I found sanity again. For now.

Chicago Blizzard 2011 - Lake Shore Drive


This is how crazy it was Downtown. I still can't believe some people tried to drive in this Blizzard!! They said over 1500 cars were stranded on Lake Shore drive and people had to leave their cars behind and walk to a warming station.

The view from my front door. Notice how my neighbors car is almost completely covered and that there is no road right now, just pure snow everywhere!
