Jessica wanted to create a memorial stone for a one of the dispatchers at the police station in Michigan.

We can do custom work but the logo she wanted to use was too small and multi-layered.

What else could we use? Police badge was out of the question, she wasn’t a cop. The town mascot is a Beaver.

“No”.

How about a dove for the dispatcher? The messenger.

Client loved it!

“I just received the stone this morning and it looks great.  Thanks again for all of your help.”

Maybe one more below freezing night and then, we’re warming up! Very exciting news!

Let’s recap the first quarter of the year: Ice, Ice, Tornado, Snow, Flood, Flood.

We should be talking about memorial stones and benches, but inquiring minds want to know? Do you make your bed?

June-Gonna-Eat-That posed the question and frankly I think it’s fascinating and here’s why:

For the first 10 years of my marriage I made the bed everyday, because I knew it pleased my man. But every morning, he found fault with my mad bed making skillz. And the bed making disagreement set the tone for the morning. Every day. For 10 years.

10 YEARS!

So, I stopped making the bed. And one day, about a week later, Mr. Greenjeans said, “You stopped making the bed. Why?”

And I explained to him, I hated starting the day out having an argument over MAKING THE BED.

By then, I had already conducted an informal poll mostly with men, to determine if bed-making was an important quality in a woman. Results indicated that it wasn’t a deal-breaker. And lots of people start their day with an unmade bed.

And somehow, we got through it. And now? The bed is usually unmade.

What about you?
