Got stuff today!

How exciting! I got some new stuff today from Oriental Trading. The new Fiskars 12" trimmer is way cool! The stores don't even have it yet, and it cuts straight. How cool is that? Oh and the clear stamps are amazing. These retail for about $20 each and OT has them for $29.99 for 3. I love flourishes and any kind of swirl, twirl, or curl!
Other things I got are some gaffer tape and blank 8x8 board books to do some digital scrapbooking and paste the pages inside. Too cool!!!!

Another great day!

"Happiness Walks on Busy Feet" - this is definitely ME right now!

Finally, I'm home!

WHOOHOOO!! Today I started my new job! It was a great day. I got aquainted with the people there and I feel right at home. Thank goodness! I was thinking back on my first few days at my previous employer and they were terrible. The second day there I wanted to quit. I don't feel like that at all here. I feel at home.

Santa Already?

Today my Mama, Natalie and I went to the outlets and it was great! Santa was outside asking kids what they wanted for Xmas. Natalie said she wanted a Diego Car, and a Rescue Pack. I thought Natalie was going to be really scared of Santa, but she wasn't. She wanted to tell him what she wanted for Xmas. What do you want for Xmas?

New Era = New Hair

Whooohoo! I got my hair cut yesterday...yes all of them. Tony took some pics. I feel like a lady now ready to start a new life era. Are you with me?

New Job Start 11/27

Well, I start Monday 11/27. New job. Curriculum Manager at Frontrange Solutions. This will be great because they are a CRM company, they are in Dublin, and they are a smaller company (pre-ipo too). What is most exciting is that I will actually have an impact on the direction of the training. So totally excited about this. But first....Thanksgiving.
Natalie has her first WeeCare Feast tomorrow and I am so excited about it, I will post pics tomorrow night. Then the rest of the week, it will be Thanksgiving with both families in one day. Yahoo!!
As always, a pic of Natalie in her holiday jacket. :) Enjoy!

I Resigned Today

Today was another day in my "life plan." I have resigned from my current position to start another job with amazing opportunity and growth. I have been at my current job for about 15 months and decided (my second day there) that this was not the industry for me. I needed to get back to the techy world and be a part of something bigger and faster and better.

I've accepted my new position as Curriculum Manager and today I announced that I am resigning. If I could only write the details of the day, I would, but this blog is 'public' sooooo. Teheheheeee So anyways, overall, it was a good day. I start my new venture Monday 11/27, please send well wishes and good thoughts my way.

BTW, the comments are open to ANYONE, so please, be my guest, and comment. See it right there, right down there, ya, there, click it, type and you're done.

Mall Trip Today

Natalie and I went to the mall today with Jo Ann and Alan! We had a great time. For some reason when we get these two kids together they just laugh and laugh. It is so great to see them enjoying eachother so much!
We had lunch at the new Cheesecake Factory and wow was that amazing! I got the Chocolate Tuxedo Cheesecake and it was amazing....can I just say heaven....I brought half of it home because I couldn't finish it. Can you just see the layers? It goes like this (from the bottom up)....fudge cake, chocolate cheesecake, vanila marscopone, and topped with chocolate ganache and tons of real whipped cream....ok, ya wow.

School Portrait

Well, I can't believe it, but it is true. Natalie's got her first school portrait. They take these at WeCare and I love that. She looks so big!!!! Cute eh?

What is Natalie into these days?

I often get asked...so what is Natalie into these days? So....today - Natalie and I created Natalie's Christmas Wish List . We went through the big book of toys and added everything that she could possibly ask for. You don't have to purchase from Amazon, these are just ideas.
Check out the graphic over there under the LINKS section, it will always be there, even when this post is not.
I don't know how I get anything done around here with two cats all over my desk and a booboo girl who loves to play on the computer!!
