Welcome to a new week everyone! I hope the weather is improving for those of you who have been dealing with some unseasonable nastiness out there! My poor DD was upset the pink flowers on one of our trees were frozen in the cold snap. We planted them as little saplings a couple years ago and this is the first year we have a decent flowering on the tree. And it's now taller than DD. I planted 2; the other isn't as tall and only got a few flowers. Maybe next year!
Do you subscribe to any magazines or newspapers? Or are there any you pick up from time to time off the rack in the store? How do you organize your magazines or newspapers?
I have 4 magazine subscriptions. I get Organic Gardening/Organic Life (my Grandpa has been gifting this to me for a few years), Parents, Family Fun and Better Homes and Gardens. This month's Organic Life has peaches on the cover and now I want a good fresh peach SO bad!
I need to plant a peach tree or two!
I may not renew my Parents subscription. I'm not sure about Better Homes and Gardens. My mother gifted me Family Fun. They all have some great stuff in them; I just get backed up with my reading.
I'm in the process of cleaning off my desk; hence the question today! I usually only keep a year's worth unless there is something extra special in it. For example; a few years ago Parents had a great issue with tons of really fun birthday party ideas for kids. If I ever get more organized I'll try a binder with articles i've clipped out.
The rest get recycled. I keep putting off buying magazine holders. They just seem expensive for what they are. I need a shelf for those too.
My kids have a subscription to High5 also. I think we might switch to Highlights when this one is up since DD is just beginning to learn to read. My mother gets the subscription for the kids for Christmas; so it'll be a while. (High 5 is a younger version of Highlights.)
I have a few other magazines I resist subscribing to but I'll pick up from time to time. Traditional Home is one. Just a beautiful publication. Tuscan Style is another one. I forget how often that is published; I don't think it's done more than a few times a year. I occasionally pick up Birds and Blooms or another gardening magazine. I think I have a few copies of Mother Earth here.
Don't tell my husband; but my mother sent me home with 2 big stacks of old magazines the other day.
These are for the kids to cut pictures out of though!
