SUNDAY!

I have a love hate relationship with Sundays. Especially the Sundays that follow a "work outside of the home Saturday's". 
So far what you know of me is...I use the FlyLady.net to keep my home organized and out of CHAOS, I sell Stampin UP! And I sell Passion Parties. Well I've also done hair for ummm 20 some odd years, and that is my part time day job. At this point it is very slow, so I'm really working my businesses, to be one day independent of doing hair.
Since I had to work my 'day job' this Saturday, I scheduled a Stampin' UP! Workshop for 2 in the afternoon. SO this is 8 hours that I am not home with my husband. Hubby works 2 hours away from here, and stays there during the week. He's got a really nice place, and it's not far from his work. I really am ok with him being gone, with texting and internet it's like he's still here, but when he's home on the weekends I would really RATHER be home MOST of the time. *of course*
With the FlyLady's help, I have kept the house immaculate during the weeks, and have really gotten things organized, so we didn't have much at all to do on the weekend, except watch movies, play Wii and enjoy! Well for some reason, all heck broke loose today! 
I was gone from 7:40 am till 4:30 pm  yesterday. And This is the FIRST I've sat down today. I did not do any FlyLady routines, but thought oh heck the boyz can't wreck THAT much! DANG! We did throw in one extra little project that spiraled out of control, but geeeesh. I've been at it since 9!! Cooking cleaning laundry our project and getting things packed up for hubby. Why does ONE DAY of not doing things make it so hard the next day uhhhhhhg!!
 WHEWWWWW Thanks, I needed to get that out!!

Now the house is spotless again...we have lots of food for the week, and we're going to sit and enjoy the next football game. I really wanted to get into the Diva Den today but I want to spend time with hubby too! I do have tomorrow! 
Made home made chow mein, that is about done, and have a brisket in the crock, so he'll be stocked for lunches etc. *taco bake in the freezer for him too* whew I'm tired. Going to snuggle on the couch with hubby..will blog soooooon!!!! 
XOXO

Had such a blast today even though I felt like poo poo. Oh well that is a whole nother blog. Now I'm waiting for hubby to get home YAY He's doing my Walmart shopping lol, I don't even have to go there! He stops on his way home for the week. We spend less money that way HAHA! We don't need much, but the few things will help a ton for him to get there.

 See you in a bit!!
 

Monday Monday...SO GOOD To Me!

I LOVE Mondays! Particularly after a long weekend with hubby and son! As much as I love them, I have a hard time cleaning the way I like, organizing the way I like, and even relaxing the way I like...when they are around. So come Mondays when hubby goes to the city for work, and son goes to school....OHHHH it's Krazy Katie time!!

I worked hard and we had a lot of fun over the New Year Weekend! Nice and quiet, and lots of great food that we used up from pantry and freezer...and I even got some craft time in!

Thank You Note For Christmas

Saturday, January 1, 2011

What a morning. I always seem to do this on the first day of the New Year. Since my Christmas tree has been down, and only have my Santa's to put away *they are all organized in one spot upstairs* I decided I had to make my kitchen spotless after breakfast, and got busy in my Diva Den. Things got quite unorganized and I do not know how that happens uhg! So my Passion side is looking great, have orders ready to send out Monday, my 40% off sale went REALLY WELL! YAY! 
 Now my Stampin' UP! Side! WOOOHOOOO!!! It's coming along really really well! I want to do some Thank You notes and get a few hostess packets set up today. I also will have to list what I want to do for this Mega Party I'm invited to do *both SU AND PASSION*  I have so many ideas, I think I have to write or type it out. I want to be uber organized for it. I SO have to get used to this mini catalog thingy and the other supplimental one, not sure what it's called. I have them all lol but ummmm I cannot remember anything. Once I get it, it'll be there forever. 

 I also need to make labels and business cards for SU. Need to be prepared for this. I wasn't expecting it to go anywhere but a discount...but I've been asked to do a few things! Pretty honored that people want me to teach again.

Gonna be busy today and tomorrow! LOVE IT! My Cricut is to arrive MONDAY! So, I'd like all these things done or underway before lol so I can play around with that! WOHOOOOOOO!

Will post my creations in a while!!!!!
