New Title Words

Gosh, my ebay store is taking off like hot cakes.......I cannot keep up -keeping running out of cardstock, as I just did and must go to the craft store somehow on Sunday to restock.

I have now over 300+ title words on ebay and averaging about 3-4 orders per day, and these aren't just small orders -they average at least 10-15 words per order. Some are just 1 title per order but still........I'm very happy with my results.
You can visit my ebay store by clicking here: SAY IT WITH MEMORIES

Here are some samples to share: my best sellers and newest creations!!!!






Cute as a Bug and happy New year were just created TODAY --- 2008 (with mickey ears) and the softball Customized name title are 2 of my best sellers on ebay so far........its amazing what a little creativity can do!

Scoop

I was listening to the radio today while doing my paper route and the radio station I always listen too, 101 the Rose, always has a word of the day.

Well, today was SCOOP.

In honor of National Scoop the Poop day!!!! Yes, isn't that funny??? I just had to share.

Today

Below is my birthday gift -just had to share with you today what Steve and Taylor got me for my birthday --its a HUGE GERANIUM planter, and I mean huge! It doesn't look real big in this photo but trust me, its bigger than normal. I was eyeing this baby up all week long at a local flower shop we deliver paper to everyday --- but the price wasn't in my budget, guess with a little extra work this week, Steve got it for me.
I cannot wait to see it bloom in full this spring/summer, this will be my baby I pamper everyday!





Well today
I turn 37 --- wasn't going to blog about it but decided I would. The day is beautiful -sun is shining- its going to be about 70 degrees today and I couldn't ask for a better day.

Nothing special planned for today -just another day. Although it is Earth Day and election day -those 2 things are all over the news/TV this morning. Earth Day is always on April 22nd every year and I must say its a beautiful Day today.
Turning 37 isn't too bad I guess.

a Lifetime Friend

a Lifetime Friend of mine Missy is a great friend to have had since 1st grade. Its just not 20 years of being out of school (or actually 19) plus another 12 years, that's over 31 years of being friends with someone, wow! that we must say goodbye to her dear mom Kay. Missy's mom passed away last week at age 64. Very young and that's very scarey to think of being 64 and saying goodbye.

Today I will going to her viewing and saying goodbye and supporting Missy as that lifetime long friend of 31 years. As I look back I don't think Missy and I ever had fights, ever stopped talking but kept being friends through grade school, high school, through college, thru marriage (hers) and through baby showers, birthdays of our children and now this. Geez! it just seems like 31 years is a long time to have a true friend.

I must say I have 2 good friends this way, although we may not talk everyday or chat on the phone weekly - we chat via internet and occasionally update our lives enough to stay friends. Kendra is my other longtime friend, probably even longer than Missy. Kendra and I went to kindergarten together, which probably is 32 years of friendship and again someone who we may have had an occasional spat at Girl Scout camp but nothing long term.

Its good to say I have 2 lifetime friends at hand. And I hate to see Missy go through this horrible ordeal but I will be there today to let her know I'm still her lifetime friend in good and in bad.

Softball





Well, softball is just around the corner and nobody knows in our house where we're playing, laugh. Taylor is now 12 soon to be 13, she played softball for 12U (12 and under) for 3 years now, and I feel she's ready to move up --the next level is 14U but of course our dear softball league in the area we go too is not having a 14U this year-instead wants a 16U and I feel skipping an entire age level is too much for her, not that she couldn't handle it, I just feel its not right to do this to the girls. We're now looking into switching teams -either the team she plays for in the fall or staying in our hometown, which I would rather not do.........here are some photo of Taylor from fall ball.

I'm so ready for softball to start! It always sets off the SPRING FEELING!

Busy Morning

What a crazy morning, its only 11:00 and we've been running all morning long. I have to start doing the paper route now alone, and its taking a toll on me. Yesterday was the biggest day of the week and it was in bed last night by 9:30. Today should be too bad.....Friday's are usually a light weight day to deliver.

Steve is back to work and its nice now cause the money will help us get caught up --I cannot wait til he is working steadily and regular with his Landscaping business. Well, I have lots to do this morning (what's left of it) before I head out in the drizzling rain to deliver papers. Have a great day!

So excited

I'm kind of excited this week cause a couple new things happened, I'm back on ebay myself now, I'm hoping it last, its very overwhelming and my newest TITLE WORDS are a hit on ebay with scrapbookers, cannot wait to get my 300 title words listed plus more --I love designing them, and each and everyday I get a new idea.

I have a new sub for our paper route, I cannot wait til she does a complete weekend and it goes well so I feel good about this........it'll seem wierd to have a day off.

Today was so beautiful considering the other day it was so ugly out. it was a little chilly and brisk today with a little bit of wind but the sun was shining to bright -it just felt like spring.

TayLor was home sick from school today -that's not a good thing but she has a bad cold, and is feeling miserable, may even be another day off tomorrow too, we shall see.
