***STAR OF THE WEEK***


So here it is FINALLY, no mistakes this time, they remembered to feature the poor little guy...Of course I bought all the copies the rec center had tonight. Tomorrow I will go into our little town and buy up the rest...



Swimming lessons finished up today...no one got leveled up, but they all did really good considering they have NEVER been in lessons before. We celebrated with a Mc.D's dinner...barf...I will wash the taste out of my mouth later with a martini...

The craft fair was pretty disappointing, very few people came through, and even fewer bought. Thankfully I made enough to pay for the table and the babysitter and come home with a little cash as well. I sold about 50 sets of clips, not to bad...now here is where it gets exciting...someone who bought a couple sets also runs our islands biggest baby fair, she emailed me this morning and invited me to sell there next summers end! This time I will have 8 months to get ready, so there is no way I can goof off this time...if I do please remind me and kick my butt back into gear.

I have lots of left overs from this past craft fair so I will be listing as soon as we have a NON-rainy day here so I can take pictures.




Wishful thinking...we have been here since July and I swear it has rained nearly every day! Whatever! there is always the stove top, the light there is awesome.

So again thanks for reading, and feel free to comment, suggest, or leave a thoughtful thought...

Happy Wednesday!

***BTW! I figured out how to link my pictures...YAY ME!

2 days to go! Where is it?


So here we go the big count down...Saturday is the big day... and I am soooo not ready! Well maybe mostly ready, but still work needs to be done. The craft fair is on Saturday...I don't even know how to get there! eep! I will google map it to find out how to get there and I will have my cell phone so I can call for help. I have the worst sence of direction ever! I got lost going to the grocery store once and got home over an hour later...So that is why I have a cell phone to call for directions.

On another note my middle son was supposed to be featured in our local paper yesterday nad they forgot to put him in. They promiced he would be in next week...stay tuned!
I decided this year with the kids Christmas money from relatives I would add to their swimming lessons instead of buying them a dumb toy they wouldn't play with in 3 days...any opinions on this?

So today is a short blog, I really need to get crafting, I have 26 pacifier clips waiting for me to finish...gulp!...wish me luck...
