Things that make me smile: a good pen

I am going to start a new series: things that make me smile.  I originally planned to do one big post, but then decided there were too many and it all depends on what is going on in my life, the weather, my mood, time of the the year, yada yada yada.  Then I decided I would post something that makes me smile everyday. Let's get real: That may never happen.  So, I say: I will post something that makes me smile as often as I can - and I am going to TRY to do that every weekday along with a regular post- but don't hold me to it.  Here we go:

1. a good pen.

A good pen almost always produces good handwriting (as long as my hands aren't cold and I have at least 3 sheets of good padding underneath my paper).  My favorite pens have varied over the years, but my favorite pens at the moment are: Pilot Precise V5 Rolling Ball (at least fine or medium tip) and a good ol' fashioned felt tip pen.  For some reason, I always seem to write better when it's in red.

ps: I am also going to try to start labeling my posts.  You can go ahead and call me a blogging pro!
