I had one that wasn't expiring for 2 years and they were pestering me to renew! Yes, and that automatic renewal...I don't think so! I've cut down a lot on my magazines. Especially the decorating ones as I can just log onto blogs like this and get wonderful, thrifty ideas like yours!

Mine has a piece of painted tin too.....I use magnets on it to attach my "phone list" a sheet of cardstock has the cell numbers and above that is just a paper one (easier to pick up) of others we need to keep handy.

It's better than what I have... which is a pile on the kitchen counter that we have to weed out occasionally... when it starts falling on the floor or is in danger of spontaneous combustion as it creeps toward the stove. <br />I can just see your cabinet now. Will you also have a place to hang keys in there? I am in love with loons, too! We don't have them here, but I remember that wonderful eerie call from summers at camp. <br />Stay warm. Brrrrrrrr!

We won't drive far because the roads are pretty awful, but a walk will feel good, I'm thinking. It's just getting there that doesn't seem very appealing. It's 17 degrees with a brisk north wind.

Good luck with the Far Guy getting the doors on the nerve center. I understand how you feel, enclosed would look neater, and the messages and notes wouldn't be visible for the world to see.
