Recently I was reminiscing about stuff I had in my office, (please go and read On The Wall posted earlier on this blog) and I shared some of these wonderful items with you. I mentioned in that post that I had stuff on my fridge in the office and that there were other magnets elsewhere. That would be on the fridge at home...

The fact that I see these magnets all the time shouldn't make you think that I spend a lot of time in the fridge. I just happen to saunter past the fridge every time I am loitering...in my home...

Anyway, I thought you would like to read some of them with me:

Fridge magnets are good for your home and your office. The more people you share them with the better. You can even give them as gifts. Especially if you have been trying to say something unpalatable to someone....and you cannot....and you find the perfect words....on a magnet. Bam!

In my case....it's good to look at what's on the fridge....instead of being inside it....as usual.
