Hopefully the Starbuck's coffee I stopped for this morning will give me the boost I need this morning. I want to go back to sleep!
Re: It's Monday. Blah.
I stayed up way too late, organizing things (loooove my new shelves!) and blogging. DH had to get up early, so the alarm started chirping at 6am. And I know for sure there was a 12: on the clock by the time I went to bed. Blah indeed.

Yes, please. I'm heading back to the coffee room momentarily.
Blah Monday, indeed. I'm irritable today.
First of all, why in the world are you awake at 6:45 while on vacation?
Second, I can't believe you went hot air ballooning! Just the thought of being in a basket that's dangling from a balloon far above the earth gives me anxiety. I'd probably cry if I were to do that. You're brave. Was it fun?
Yay, LVila! Nice to see you online.
Go back to bed!

I'm taking on new clients like crazy and I'm worried that I'm going to be spreading myself thin.
But the thought of getting financially ahead gets me so excited, that I won't turn down the work.

Hi!
T's birthday party went well. We had a great turnout. He slept through half the party, and he hardly touched his cake, but other than that it was a lot of fun.
He ended up getting pink eye in both eyes.
This morning was his 1 yr check up. It was pretty horrible. Found out he has an ear infection and he got 4 shots. He cried. A lot.
We had a great weekend overall. I was sad to see it end.
Glad to hear it went well. Did he get some nice goodies?
I am having a Partylite party on Feb 6 2 pm. I know it's Super Bowl Sunday but it's early enough in the day. There is a website that you can order under my name as hostess for credit. If interested, let me know.
Could this day go by any longer? Ugh
This isn't really directed to you, but man, I'm so sick of everyone soliciting me on the phone, FB, email and whatever for their Avon/Mary Kay/Partylight/Pampered Chef/Premiere Jewelry/Pure Romance/whatever. I've had, just in this last week, 9 people ask me to come to a party or buy from their website.
Seriously? And when I tell people that I don't have the money, I hear "oh, but our products are AWESOMESAUCE and really affordable!".
/end vent.

I know how it is. I got wrangled into this because a friend wanted to order stuff and wanted someone to have a party. So instead of saying no I said yes. LOL. Not doing that again. LOL. I am just saying that since I am having one, if anyone needs some and doesn't wanna have a darn party, you can order. I got suckered into it. LOL
Everyone getting snow right now?
That's crazy! You have a lot of party-hosting friends!
That sounds like quite the experience!
Poor T! Glad to hear his party went well though.
hmm...I have a "dilema" My standard "sit dow and be quiet" bribe for the kids is smarties (or a sucker). However I don't think that will go over too well at the dentist office. ha ha!
I have a backpack filled with stickers, color books, and the Tag Jr. book. I have to somehow manage to keep Amelia quiet and still while Allison gets her teeth checked out. This should be interesting.
I have no tips, but I wish you luck!
I conveniently ignore 99% of the invites I get for those things. Even if I'm friends with the hostess.

Me too. I loathe parties like that!
GVSU, I bribe DS with M&M's all the time. I'm sure between that and the nighttime paci use I'm going to get lecture by the dentist when DS actually goes. When did you start taking the girls? I have read at age 2 is when to start?
It is Allison's first visit. I'm a little behind. I kept putting it off for myself and I wanted to find a new place before I brought the girls anywhere. I hope she does well.
No joke...it didn't used to be a problem, but now everyone is on the bandwagon about how easy it is to sell the stuff!
It just irritates me...if I say "no", don't try to guilt trip me about it. I had one 'friend' tell me about how she needs the money so she can afford a new coat for her DS.
