Slacker!

I know, I know - I am such a Slacker!!! And I am afraid it might just get a little worse from here on out.... I am now less than five days away from hubby being home. I know several of you have asked when for sure he is going to be here - and I would love love love to tell you, but due to security reasons and for his safety - I just can't! I'm really sorry - but this is one of those things that we military wives have had beaten in our heads - OPSEC (which stands for Operational Security).


Just know that time is getting majorly short and I have a TON of things to do!!!! LOL

On to what I did all day yesterday: I finally finished up all my freezer meals! I am very excited. Not sure if you recall but I had purchased two cookbooks where you make all your meals ahead of time and then freeze them....



Well I started on Monday getting my meals done - and then something happened. Then I tried to finish them up on Wed - and something happened - and I FINALLY got them done yesterday!!! Whooo Hooooo... I think I have 27 meals in my freezer now! It is almost completely full!!!



The only down side to this plan that I can see so far is my kitchen was a wreck when I was done!! I am still cleaning it!!!!



Ok - so that is the update from here.... I have made it my goal for today to get the text documents done for my TEN new files I have ready for the store.... I just don't understand how I get soooooo far behind!!! Then I have to bust a move and get my cleaning done, sort through my Christmas gifts and move the ones to hiding that my hubby isn't allowed to see, then clean, and clean oh yeah - and clean!!!

I may be hit and miss for the next week - but don't give up on me - and don't disappear forever... ok - I promise I will be back up and blogging like normal before you know it!!!

Until Next Time!

Doing the happy dance....

Has anyone ever seen the commercial for Six Flags over GA? With the bald headed guy?? Well that is me right now!!! I am doing the old man happy dance!!!


(What?!?! You've NEVER SEEN the commercial?? Well you have to watch it RIGHT NOW!!! I swear every time I just hear the music I giggle and watching it makes me about pee in my pants laughing!!! HONEST!!!)

With the help of one of me dearly devoted blog readers - Beth in TX - she hooked me up with her friend Suzanne, also in TX and I shipped my Element out to her today with all the extras!!!!

Whooo Hoooo!!!! It was a bitter fond farewell - as I loved that machine but I'm REALLY looking forward to getting the 13"!! Its really going to benefit me in the long run for my business!!!

I am sooo relieved and excited to have sold my Element - as a matter of fact! I am even giving Beth a "finders fee" for helping me sell it!! Yep - I will be sending Beth a disk with all my files that I have designed!!!! Yep - every last one of them - including my new files that are not even in the store yet!!!!
Speaking of new files - I need to run so I can get the text documents written up and get those new files in the store!!! I'll try to give you a sneak peak later on and let you in on what I have been working on!!!

Thanks again Beth and Suzanne!!!! Now if November will just hurry up and get here!!!!
Until Next Time!

A quick stop in...

Good Morning!! Just a quick stop in this morning - a TON of things to get done!!!!

I have five pink photo ribbon pins to complete this morning!! As I am working on some marketing techniques!

Then I am spending the day prepping two weeks worth of dinners for my freezer! You may recall that I had purchased the "Meals for a Month" cookbook - where you prep all your food in one day and then freeze them. Then we you go to cook dinner you just take something out and thaw it out and cook it - or some of them you just take out and cook!!! So this is kind of exciting but it will be a busy day.

Then this evening I have Military Support group at my church!!!

No rest for the weary!! Oh and I have three more files to test cut!!!

So if I get a chance I'll check back in!! I also want to show you a paper "craft" project I am hoping to get done before hubby gets home!!!!

Until Next Time!
