What a shocker-- I'm actually taking a "Mini Vacation"!! My Mom is forcing me into it!

OK, please--no fainting or applause---, but guess what??  I'm actually out of town as I write this, taking a "Mini Vacation" with my lovely 81-year old Mom, who is visitng from Omaha!!!  Mom decided that I HAD to have a couple days off, after the all the tough things that have been going on in my life & she decided the ONLY way to ensure that would happen is to physically drag me out of town--(even though I'm sooooo sick!!).  What can I do--would YOU be able to say no & disappoint your 81-year old Mom???  Well, I couldn't, so here we are. (The other alternative was to take one of those 3 day cruises out of LA & there was NO way I was up to that right now, so this was a good compromise!!)

We're in San Diego for a few days.  It's the perfect destination spot because it's actually close enough to drive, but just far enough away from home, so I can't run back and forth, or work around the clock (as usual) !!  Thank goodness I didn't have to drive any long distance to get here, or we wouldn't have made it (OMG, I HATE to drive!)!! I did bring my laptop, but I'll likely only be checking mail once a day!!

So please be prepared, because I'll likely only be responding to emails once a day as well!!

I'll be returning to work on Thursday morning, 12/3/09. Any invoices paid, or purchases made using the BUY NOW Buttons before I return should get shipped out to you on Thursday!!

Have a great week!!

Update to this post:  Well, my luck--I got even sicker while on vacation & developed bronchitis, which has now turned into walking pneumonia.  I swear to God, I'm so unlucky--I think I'm the only person I know who gets punished for actually taking a couple days off, LOL!!! (rolling my eyes heavenward!!)

  1. I was very pleased with my transaction with Glenda. Even though an error was made, she leaned over backward to make things 'right" She treated me VERY fairly. The little extra surprises in the order were delightful.

First let me say I’m sorry I’m late getting this posted for you. To make a very long story short, my car was involved in a fire while it was in the mechanic’s shop (minding its own business getting a tune-up!!) on Jan 20th & I’ve had to take on a full time job fighting with a lot of incompetent insurance folks ever since, just to determine the fate of my car (which was stuck up on the mechanic’s lift with no wheels when the fire started on the ground below). Because the fire was raging & had plenty of fuel around it, the firemen had to shut off the electricity to the building while fighting the fire, so my car’s been stuck up there on the lift until late last Fri, Jan 3oth, when it was finally towed late in the day to my insurance’s mechanic/body shop). So, because I’ve been just trying to get people to actually do the jobs they should have been doing, I’ve been tied up, not to mention stressed out, which is making me truthfully physically sick!!! And since Jan 20th, I’ve been ...

(This blog thread is to summarize and hopefully, make it easier for all of you to enter here to win my BLOG CANDY Give-Away.) Ohhhh, thank GOODNESS--now, finally: BACK TO CRAFTING!!! I've been soooo busy with all the orders for the Crafter's Companion products ( thank you!!! ) over the past week, I haven't been able to craft ANYTHING worthwhile. But I've been musing & thinking about what type of tutorials/projects I wanted to start with here on my blog (BESIDES the obvious, which are the Ultimate Crafter's Companion and the Rock-A-Blocks!!!), & of course, because I am the original "Gadget Queen" , who loves ALL gadgets & tools, most the things that popped into my mind were about different crafting "tools". Several of the ones ones that came to mind were those I think many of us bought with great enthusiasm when they were first released, but now, may not be getting as much use as they could be, or they may actually be gathering dust!!...
