The Skirts are on their wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy

My Iced Beverage skirts are on their way to Vegas! They have been invited to participate with shannon http://www.sweetspice.etsy.com in FIRST FRIDAY. http://www.firstfriday-lasvegas.org/index.html I'm sooooooooooooooooooo excited! I have two different styles, iced beverage skirts and cozy corset iced beverage skirts. My daughter absolutely LOVES hers and calls it a frap skirt as all she ever drinks is caramel fraps! I need a pic of her using hers.........shes prancing all around starbucks with it. My sons girl friend is prancing all around the USF campus with hers. LIVE PROMO is the best!
So.........................many many thanks to sweetspice for offering to feature my skirts along with her great scrubs and bath salts. Good luck to us! We are going to ROCK first friday! wish i could be there in person.

Thats LIFE

................and heres how things are buzzing along in my corner of the world! My new job is going pretty good. I am tired allllll the time tho. It is going to be hard to get used to it. The pay is good so that is a plus.
VJs ankle is getting better and better every day. He's been staying at the girlfriends place, but i have seen him a few times and he's walking without the boot (now that the cast has been off two weeks) and doing pretty well, just a slight limp. In no time at all he should be back on ice playing hockey. We're all pretty excited.
Chrissys new little job has been exciting for her and she's making lots of tips................she is trying to plan a vacation with her boyfriend for a week. It has me a little nervous. This empty nest syndrome is starting to hit me.
Victor is still plugging along at his management job. I dont think he likes it much better but for now its what pays the most.
And of course the cat is the cat. Rajah is doing pretty well for a cat that the vet didnt expect to make it till the first of the year, and then gave him only about 3 mos to live. I guess he truly is rajah the great...............................and i have been putting a lot of prayers in to st francis of assissi for all small animals and pets.
I'm not having as much time for etsy now that i am working, but i am doing it as much as i can and running specials here and there. Mostly working on the iced beverage skirts and selling more off etsy than on...............a sale is a sale and its all good!
I might be taking some of the beverage skirts out to send off to http://www.sweetspice.etsy.com for gallery sales. She is starting out with first friday http://www.firstfriday-lasvegas.org Seems like it is going to be very fun!
UNADVERTISED SPECIAL FOR THE WEEKEND: TWO beverage skirts for only $13. Thats a savings of $3. Simply make the purchases and be sure to enter "blog unadvertised special" in note to seller at checkout. *expires at midnight on sunday or while supplies last*

Working a NEW job

Well, i started my new job this week. pretty interesting. I am doing reception/admin/billing for a chiropractors office. kind of strange tho........i have never BEEN to a chiropractor in my life (military insurance does not pay for that sort of thing). And it all seems a little strange to me. But its been great so far, so no complaining except i am tired and dont have as much time for my etsy shop. To celebrate my new job tho, I will offer as an unadvertised etsy special on my blog...............20% off any item in my shop. Just mention "new job blog" in note to seller at checkout for discount. Offer will be good thru friday July 27th.

ITS IN THE BAG

WHO can resist my Rajah in many of his cute photos! Normally afraid of brown grocery bags, here is Rajah digging thru and unpacking the groceries! whats he after? STRAWBERRIES...............thats right, he loves them. Not to eat them, just to sniff them. He does like to lick and roll around on the green tops tho if i cut them off and let him have a couple! What a silly kitty. Speaking of strawberries..............visit darcy at her etsy shop. she has some cute crocheted strawberries. http://images.etsy.com/all_images/c/c76/da9/il_430xN.9499415.jpg and i have a washcloth

FRIDAY THE 13TH

FRIDAY THE 13TH SALE - till midnight EDT friday
2 iced beverage skirts for $13
