We all have our version of "big" summer plans. It may be a tropical vacation or a road trip to a national park or a visit to a favorite amusement park. These things may take up much of our planning time. Arranging flights, making lists etc. We probably even have penciled in playdates, playgrounds and swim lessons. But its those days at home after having been on a break for a while, which could be 5 days in a row, where you are wishing you would have planned for. Here is a list of fun things to do at home this summer when bored strikes and the kids are you making your crazy! (Or, does that just happen to me?) If you see anything on here you would like to learn or make you can add it to this fun free printable planner.

I see this auction as trading up. Not trading up to better or more valuable watches, I'm actually putting the money toward my store. I love The Armoury more than my watches and I want to see it grow. Just like how F.P. Journe has said that every cent he's made has gone back into the business, I think about it the same way. I wanted to buy link our own physical space on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York, link which is link a bit beyond the means of most businesses.
