The Sewing Mom

I know this is supposed to be wordless, but this project took up ALL of my time last week and I feel the need to show off what I spent so much time doing. This photo is of the front of the t-shirt as the last design “Kandy Kueens” has been added. I will show the back of the shirt later.

I spent 5 years working in 5th and 6th grade class rooms and almost that long working with Girl Scouts. I’ve just completed my first year working as a Team Manager for a 6th grade Destination Imagination team, sponsored by the elementary school. The one thing that all of these jobs have in common? I have to stay organized.

To help me stay organized, I used my laptop with Microsoft Office loaded on it. Most of the time I’m using Word, Excel or Publisher, all very helpful programs. I have to say though that Microsoft Office, just like any other software program, is very expensive. Most of my work now is volunteer work, so it’s not easy to come up with funds to pay for expensive software.

At CostCaptain.com I can get 100% authentic Microsoft products and, after providing them with academic eligibility, they will ship me Microsoft Office 2007 for around $129. Why? Because they give academic discounts! By the way, if you homeschool, you qualify too!

I all ready have the program, but I can also get gift certificates for my academic friends. I know I’d be lost without these programs!
