or so she thought… (bwahhahahahahah). 

I was so excited today.. got lots done and of course came home with homework.. but that’s besides the point.. Another reason to be excited?  My 2 year old is getting into this toilet training thing!! “MUMMMMMY PEEEEPEEEEE”, I know too much information but it is SO CUTE!  She is on the toilet and a few drops fall and I scream or Ruby screams “ONE peeeepeeee”!  she laughs hysterically and sucks it back in.. then she lets a few more drops and we shout “TWOOOOO PEEPEEEEES” and at this point, she is hysterical, the two of us are hoarse and exhausted from screaming and dancing etc.. you get the picture but HOW CUTE IS DAT?

 See how I jump from one subject to the other?  hmph.. this is how my brain works..LOL.  Ok, back to the Nicky thang.  She told me she would bring me lunch today and just hang out so she called me that she was downstairs and to meet her.  I met her at her car and she looks at me and says “WHAT?? NO SSSSMARTTTT CARTTTT?”… I respond back to her “for lunch??” “How much lunch didja bring???”.. she then starts ‘unloading’ her car.. We brought all these bags upstairs to my office (aka ‘digs’ ‘crib’) and she begins to unpack… How sweet is THIS?  She bought me a tea kettle (she drinks tea, I don’t LOLOL), a COFFEE MAKER, a tin of coffee and some tea, 3 stackable containers (NEED I SAY MORE?) for sweet n low, stir sticks, tea bags etc.. pink forks and green knives (my colours) and matching funky napkins AND a little kleenex pack that matches the napkins, cuz she said THE BELLA needs cute kleenex.. and a pink ceramic mug that plugs into the car lighter to keep your coffee warm (CUTEST IDEA).. I almost cried.. that was THE NICEST package I have ever gotten.. oh and some paper towels (do ya think she thinks I need to clean a little?) but no windex? hmph.  Was so happy.  So she sat down and I put her to work.. she did a wonderful job and the company was PHENOM..

I had a great day.. still trying to catch up but I see the light!

Today was a great day.. got lots of goodies and felt so loved.. I be so happy

oh, did I mention there will be a reveal on Friday?  huh?  did I?

MWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

So my little Jay formally turned two yesterday.. if you ask her how old she is she hold up 2 little fingies and shouts “TOOOOOO”.. so cute.. she had a blast.  I, on the other hand, amd completely and utterly EXHAUSTED.. we entertained family from out of town all weekend.. between cooking and cleaning and eating and cooking and cleaning and eating (you get the pic) it was really hectic to say the least!  It is a long weekend here so tomorrow is off.. I was ABSOLUTELY forbidden by all to go to my office or work.. hmph.  However, LOL, I managed to say “I must show my parents my new digs” sooooo I managed to squeeze in a coupla hours and you will be seeing some updates throughout the next coupla days (even if I am not ‘allowed’ to work)… I will be tackling the 12-13th of may right now so still within my 7 day processing time… I will try this week to really boogie harder (is that possible???) and get lots sent out and then by the end of the week both storage and reveals will be up!! I hope you understand.. actually I KNOW you understand and I do appreciate it so much.

 So off to make dinner (food AGAIN??)

Love to da SISTAHS

MWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Yes yes! You remember a little over a month ago I stayed up late to create my daughter, Jayden’s birthday invites?  Do you remember how much I fell in love with this invite and couldn’t wait to replicate it a million times and send out to all close friends and family?  Do you see where I am going with this?

Jayden’s 2nd birthday is on Saturday.  Yes, 2 days away. So what do you think the organized queen stuffed pickle did 1.5 weeks ago ?  Yes, you got it… I CALLED EVERY SINGLE PERSON ON MY LIST and told them all the info about the party cuz I didn’t have the time to make the invites! LOLOL.. I guess there is always next year?  So sistahs, block this card from your mind in case I resurrect it next year and want a kajillion comments on how original and specfabulous I was in creating such a card.. n’k?  It’s like the shoemaker and the shoes.. he makes em, but has no shoes on his feet (I hope that is how the story goes.. if not.. it fits so well so don’t correct me.. LOL).

I have my son, Tyler’s, 5th birthday in a month.. what do you think I did?  Yup!  I went to the indoor gym place where we are hosting it and they have FREE invites with maps on how to get there etc.. HOW CLEVER AND CRAFTY am I? *giggles*

That’s my story for the day.

Digs or “crib” as someone mentioned which I LOVED, is great.. still bringing stuff everyday and slowly getting organized.  I am getting my speed back .. still behind but promise will get there and once I am done I will reveal  something JUIIIICYYY! (or 2 things)

MWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

love love love you

well, kinda.  I gotta tell you this funny little anecdote.  A few days ago I was visiting one of my favorite suppliers (which one ISN”T I ask you!).  Of course my partner in crime (nickabella) joined me and we both spot this cart.  Yes, a shopping cart. (please don’t roll your eyes.. I KNOW YOU ARE).. ANYWAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY, this is the cutest shopping cart you have ever seen (you are now asking yourselves.. a shopping cart?  cute?  WHATEV- ).. I will snap a pic tomorrow and show you and I am SURE you will agree.. Ok so anyway, we spot this cart.. called the ‘smart cart’.. so that sold it to me.. I admit it!  Anything with that name has got to be purchased, no?  So this cart is teeny relative to the normal supermarket cart (if I say CART one more time….).. there are 2 levels to this ‘C'(art) and 1 basket fits in each (both top and bottom) that you can remove.  Nicky and I immediately stare at eachother with the understanding that it is ABSOLUTELY necessary that I own this cart.. for work of course .  I can keep it in the car… I can take it out and put stuff in it to make it one trip to the office.. I can use it to pick and pack orders.. OMG. the places I would GO with this cart! (think Dr. Seuss book.. ‘oh, the places you’ll go’ (OMG wouldn’t that be a GREAT sentiment for DIPLOMABELLA???? just thought of that).. So I BEG.. I mean BEG the woman to sell me 2 of these carts.. you know in case one breaks down?? (I am laughing out loud just writing this).. she goes to ask the manager and sure enough, yes! I mean they’re thinking if this idiot wants 2 shopping carts, who am I to stop her from spending?… Anyway I ended up taking one.  I put it in the bella’s minivan and Ryan takes a look in my van when I get home and I am surprised his eyes did not remain crossed when he looked at this ‘thing ‘ in my car.. I went into my list of why this is the best thing on earth and he just held his hand up to STOP as he really wasn’t interested in the reasoning.. *giggles*… So of course I had TONS of stuff to bring to the office and I send him to home depot to buy a dolly to bring the big stuff up.. and what do you think he said??? no no no.. I think we should use your sssmmmmaaartttt cart (well at least he listens, no?)… I said to him to stop being a *()$*(%* and to buy a dolly.. of course he did.. SO.. he took his lunchhour and then some off.. I had packed my van up all morning and we met at the office.  He proceeds to take out this dolly that has trays, and the handle can pivot and you can lift it and squash it.. the only thing it doesn’t do is give you $$.. this was HIS smart cart.  So  I must admit there was a little bit of competing going on.. I whipped out my smart cart and he whipped out his “smarter” cart.. We loaded them up (mine fit 3 stamps..LOL) and his fit a fridge, 18 miliion boxes and 4000 acrylic blocks–ok I am exaggerating a little but I just wanted you to get the visual.

Well, the next step was to get to the front door.  They are repaving the parking lot and the path to the door… YOU SISTAHS woulda been HYSTERICAL.. the two of us wheeling our smart and smarter carts over PEBBLES.. can you just imagine?  We couldn’t go in a straight line.. things were threatening to fall.. we basically had to LIFT our carts over the pebbles… I knew I was smarter with my smart cart and loading it with 2 stamps.. less to fall!!! SEE? I WIN afterall! LOLOL.. (I so am really laughing as I write.)

So we get in my new digs and I have to tell you.. I SOOOO HAPPY there.. Hannah came to help me.. she will be with me a couple of times a week and we finished unpacking everything.. I can’t wait to go back tomorrow!  It’s MY place.. MY place to share with my sistahs when they come and visit where I will have MY goodies to serve and MY KETTLE to boil and of course MY COFFEEMAKER to make… It’s really nothing fancy at all but it’s MINE!

So tomorrow ladies, I will be hibernating in MY NEW PLACE, packing orders, listening to music and emailing you guys 🙂

I so happy I could just bust!  Stressed but happy!  Things should be getting back to normal soon!  I will try to take pictures and Natanya will be picking the winners to the contest by Friday!

Ok, now whomever recommended that labeler to me in the last competition, please email me privately.. I would like discuss your prize!! THAT THING IS THE BESTTTT THING IN THE WORLD.. well besides my smart useless cart, that is!

MWAH MWAH MWAH MWAH!!
love you
