This has to be short and sweet today kids. The fan on my computer has stopped working and everything shuts down randomly without warning. AHHHHH! I’m answering emails and comments on my phone and hoping to get my HP up and running. Wish me luck.
Today I’m going to help you turn this…
and this…
into this, for your New Year’s Eve party!
