How to Be Persistent

post from How to of the Day on 09 January 2012 07:00:00 PM. © How to of the Day

Being persistent is a skill that can help you to reach a goal, get what you desire and can even be a means by which you assert yourself in the face of stubborn or difficult people. The application of persistence to any task, interaction or goal is often what distinguishes between those who are successful and those who fail in any endeavor. Indeed, a lack of persistence or "giving up too soon" is one of the most common reasons for failure in any endeavor.This article covers the role of persistence in accomplishing a goal, overcoming failure and getting what you want in interactions with other people.

Dress Form Linky Party, Yep, I am going to take
the leap

post from The Polka Dot Closet on 09 January 2012 04:35:29 PM. © The Polka Dot Closet

I am going to make the leap into
"Big girl" blogging!
I'm going to have a one time Dress Form Linky Party
February 7-13th!

I wanted to give you some time to get the girls (Dress Forms) ready for the party. Old, new, homemade, altered, big, small......All forms are welcome.

Link up as many dress form posts as you like, old posts, new posts..No sense reinventing the wheel if you already have a dress form post

I even followed Debbiedoo's tutorial and made myself a blog button, oh ya, I'm getting real fancy now!
The back ground graphic I got free at "Free Pretty Things for You" and the dress form was from "Graphics Fairy"

<center><a href="http://thepolkadotcloset.blogspot.com/"><img border="0" src="http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/qq332/carollturner/Screenshot2011-12-27at91546PM.png"/></a></center>

I'm a little nervous, I have never done a linky Party
(I have no idea how, but I'll figure it out LOL)
My biggest fear is no one will show up and then I will be the big

LOSER BLOGGER
Now, I know some of you don't have dress forms and wouldn't be caught dead with one in your house, but for those of you that do, I would be eternally grateful if you would participate and save me from
The Blogger Hall of Shame!!
If you think your readers might enjoy participating, you can grab my new Fancy button for your side bar
And don't worry, I will ~~hound~~ remind you of the party in my posts

So, what do you say, are you in???
Happy CreatingCarol

Trofast Drawer for Lack Coffee Table

post from IKEA Hackers on 09 January 2012 02:36:43 PM. © IKEA Hackers

Materials: Lack Coffee Table, Trofast Drawer, Strecket Rails

Description: My husband and I recently replaced an old, tiny sofa with the Ikea Karlstad corner sofa. It's huge. So huge, that we realized there was a hidden cost: We had to replace our old coffee table as well.

For flexibility's sake, we decided to get two of the ~30" square tables. These table have a shelf about halfway down the legs, but we have two active cats. Anything we left on that shelf would be identified as not bolted down, and therefore a cat toy.

So we needed drawers on rails that would hold from the top, instead of the side or bottom.

LibreOffice (nee OpenOffice)

So, why not gaze into the cells of a spreadsheet and begin to imagine music? Karlsruhe-based electronic artist and programmer Patrick, cappel:nord, had just such a flight of fancy about office software. He explains: … Continue →
