Okay, now for a serious post.
Let me just say I'm so thankful for what this year has brought me. I truly have felt so blessed in the past year. I've joined a great group at work and been brought to many new friends. I love them all and I'm thankful for each of them. This time last year things were so rocky- I had just given my two-week notice at my job and that was so tough. It was due to some unfortunate events and I really had to reach down deep to make that decision. And, I'm so thankful I did.
I love love love working at the school. I love being in school myself. I love the PTO. I love Uppercase Living. I love my life so much. I have the greatest husband, family, and kids. I know I wouldnt have been blessed with everything I have unless I made the decision I did. God is Good, he is Great! He truly knows where we need to be and puts us there. It may not make any sense at the time but he has a plan, and in the end it will work out.
Last spring, I helped another mom of a preschooler get a job at the school, like myself. Since then we have became friends and now I can honestly say she has become a best friend. I feel like I have known her all my life. I can trust her not to repeat things I tell her, i know she is always there for me and will always stand up for me. As i will do the same for her. I love her to death. i know she probably doesnt read this, (heck, I dont know if anyone does& thats cool, its my out)but I'm so thankful to have her in my life!

Oh yeah,
Yesterday, my friend Kendal brought all her CookieLee Jewelry to school to sell markdowns and the new catalog stuff. Let me just say, her stuff is gorgeous! If you like jewelry you so need to check this stuff out.
I will be having a party soon & getting lots of great pieces, so you should do the same! Fun, girls night out with a little retail therapy!! Whip out the margaritas or a nice glass of wine!

Uppercase Living SOS..lol
I've been thinking, I'm going to get started trying to recruit someone to join Uppercase Living and help me out. Of course they will make there own comission (25%) like I do, but I will help out with the initial start-up kit cost. It's 169(for the large) and I think I will give them a $50 credit towards it. I'm being swamped with parties and with my school load getting larger, I need help! Majorly!
I'm loving Uppercase Living and everything that goes along with it, but right now I've got so much on my plate. By no means does this mean I dont want bookings, just I need an assistant to help out some!
I've had 3 parties in the last week and a couple of days. So its something that could be HUGE if I had more time to spend on it.
If you think you might be interested or know someone who would, shoot me a e-mail or a comment.
All it takes is someone who loves to decorate & all that and doesnt mind talking to a group of people ( around 15 at a time).

Watch for Falling Leaves!
I truly love the Fall season. The crisp fresh air..the color palette...everything..
Some of my favorite FAll things; Pumpkin Spice Lattes from Starbucks, Crisp Granny Smith Apples from the Farmer's Market, Those yummy green apple with caramel topping suckers, Scarecrows, the colors Orange, Green and Yellow on everything.
I especially love how everything becomes pumpkin & spice flavored when Fall arrives! I love pumkin flavored things! I'm craving some pumkin bread with cream cheese now! Yummy..

So, I havent posted in a bit
Lots of things going on.
J broke his arm and sprained his other wrist. Fun. He wrecked a 4-wheeler. Last Sunday to be exact.
Had another UL Open House, with a few more hopefully on the horizon. Thank goodness too. I cant wait to see these hospital bills and of course Christmas is coming.
I have no clue what on earth to get my kids for Christmas. They havent mentioned anything really & I just dont have any good ideas. B has mentioned a Nintendo DS but I'm not sure if we will get that for his birthday instead. His b-day is in a bit more than a month.
Oh well, a friend I work with was telling me about this awesome consignment shop in A-ville. I'm dying to check it out.
Friday is a teacher workday..not sure if I have to work or not. May work for the padre instead.
I've got lots going on with school & not really in the mood to do it. Yeah, that sucks. Hoping tomorrow is a better day to work on it and I have a more positive outlook.
Got a PTO meeting tomorrow. I really wish we could get this playround equipment deal done. I cant find something that fits our price range and all that jazz. Hopefully something will work out for us.
