Sound the Trumpets & Blare the Horn!

I noticed this morning that the e-version of our demonstrator magazine is posted for us all to take a look.  I'd forgotten that this was the month that my promotion would be reflected among my fellow demonstrators.  I am so jazzed and just had to share!

I also wanted to sound that trumpet for my good friend and upline Jennifer DiMarco who is also being recognized for a promotion this month.  Way to Go Jen!  My hubby wanted to know if her promotion had anything to do with mine, and I said 'maybe a little bit' so now he's joking about me getting brownie points for helping to boost her up a little..   I thought that was funny..   it's all good..  friends support friends and I am fortunate to have found a few awesome ones..

In any case, I just wanted to shout out a little fanfare and procession for my colleagues and friends who climbed a little higher up the ladder today.  I am also sending out a bouquet of sunshine and happiness to all of my customers and friends who helped me get achieve this goal.  I couldn't have done it without you!!

We got news from the contractor yesterday.  Looks like we could be starting to do primer on some of the rooms as early as Saturday..   I can't wait.  We were talking paint colors yesterday and someone mentioned sponge painting the wall or bag painting a wall and without missing a beat I said ' sure, but I've never stamped something that large before"..   boy did I get a look...  tee hee!!

You just have to smile..  it makes them wonder what you're up to!!   Hope that wherever you are that you're having a fabulous day!  Don't forget to take time out to stop and stamp the flowers..   :)

What a WEEK! We Survived :)

Long ago I learned the lesson that anything planned ahead will surely run astray..  this week was certainly no exception.  It was a long haul though and I am happy to report that we made it, and still have most of our faculties left..  well at least most of what we'd had left anyhow..

The entire upstairs of our house has now been moved to a storage container in the driveway at long last.  Delivery was delayed twice thanks to Mother nature's snowstorm.  We shifted gears and planned accordingly only to get a call early morning on Thursday to say delivery would happen in a few hours.

It was a few days of semi-organized chaos, but we are safe and warm in the hotel and feeling very thankful for those who came out to help us throughout these past few days, our contractor and his wife who not only saved boxes for us but delivered them just about the time we were running out.

Took a brief break near the end of it to scoot down to my creation station and collect supplies to bring to the hotel. Between computers, and Scrapping toys this place is really looking like a playground.  Our dogs are cuddled in the middle of the bed surveying the land enjoying a break from the confusion of the last few days..

Watch for my February Newsletter that should be online later tonight, or tomorrow at the latest.  Our home phone is now hooked up at the Hotel (gotta love running a VOIP line!) so feel free to give us a holler if you feel so inclined.

I will be placing an order tomorrow afternoon - if you need anything please let me know..remember during Sale-a-Bration for every $60 you spend, you get a stamp set absolutely FREE.

My next crop is on schedule for February 13th at the Cardinal Legion - If you would like to book a spot you can EMT, Paypal, or contact me to arrange payment..

See You Soon!
