your cupcake looks great Debi! and i love how you have all your coach charms all neat and tidy like that - the ice cream one is my fave!
Thank you! And thank you so much for finding that cupcake out for me so fast! I am so excited! Cupcakes seem to be in my blood right now! My favourite key chain is the ice cream one, too! I love that it is gold and so cute, but my next favourite is the silver and pink cupcake that my car keys are attached to. I love the glitter in the sun on those!
Today I got someone else's mail. An envelope from a college. A big one. The ones that say you are accepted and here is our catalog. So I called the home up but neither the mother nor person was there, so left my number. No call yet. It would be a pity if they don't call to come and pick this up. She won't know this info until Monday now. I've done my considerate part. I can't even deliver it myself because it is a new street somewhere in town that isn't even on the map yet! And in the meantime I keep wondering how my husband's day with the new boss is going. I wish he could come home with a big bonus check and make his weekend!! But that won't happen. In my dreams!!
oh no problem at all! i remembered it well because i wanted that cupcake badly myself but sadly it is too expensive for me - i need to sell my things like you do your decks!
and i hope they call really soon! not knowing if i had been accepted into uni or not would have killed me!! it's such a stressful time anyway - any delays would not be welcomed! and i really hope that your hubby is doing ok - and you never know about the big bonus!
Hehehe....unfortunately I think the boss has to talk to his boss and so on before that would ever be put through. More than likely they would just laugh! I need to go do my Shop my Stash. I think it is the only productive thing I did all day. I was going to take a nap. I was going to do a lot of things. Never happened!! loloh no problem at all! i remembered it well because i wanted that cupcake badly myself but sadly it is too expensive for me - i need to sell my things like you do your decks!

I feel your pain. I have no idea what happened, because I've used Blogger forever and I've never seen anything like that. I mean the whole network was down for a day. You could only read- no comments, no posting, you couldn't even edit past posts and at one point, they'd deleted everything before Wednesday. Seems to be back up and kicking, anyway. Good luck with your posts... I did three today... Felt like I was an addict who'd just scored a pound of coke...
yeah it sounds like it messed so many people up! i am happy that it is back to normal now though!
Today was an awesome and very busy day with still lots to do! In the afternoon we got out to the shops! First I got a new watch by Seiko, which I adore, and has little diamonds on the side of the face so really sparkly and pretty! Then we went to the mall where I zipped into Sephora. I only got the new NARS e/s trio in Lou's tutorial after falling in love with the swatches. I swatched the new pink highligher and actually fell in love with it and can think of some fun things to do with it, but they were out so I have to order. Sniff...sniff... Then to JCrew for 3 necklaces (see photos below). They don't do them justice. They have a real antique/vintage appeal. They remind me of something you would see the ladies wear in the movie The Age of Innocence! The first has crystals that look like smokey quartz, delicately dropping down. The second one has tons of rhinestones that have a yellow pink tone to them. The third has little clear stones sparkling through the vines and some sparkly flowers. They match earrings I bought from them via the mail and just realized this a few minutes ago! Yay! There were loads of venders in the middle of the mall including one adorable Japanese woman who does your hair up in all sorts of twists and buns and sticks gorgeous glittery things in it, so she taught me how to do a look and I bought the comb...purple butterfly and flower rhinestones....will show it next time my hair is up like this! She was great...I will definitely be going back!! We picked up some Chinese food and ate at home and now I have a million things to do plus sneak in some TV! Hope everyone is having a good day!!

Debi you have bought some lovely necklaces and the watch is nice too! The diamonds really make it beautiful and sparkly! and i can't wait to see the hair bits you got. we have ladies like that selling those things in our shopping centre and the crystal clips and such always look so pretty!
Thanks! It is super nice to have a watch that is actually working again! I tried on a few and had it narrowed down to this or a slightly sportier one, which I also love and if I had the funds I would buy that one too! But I don't! I like that this has both gold and silver tones because I wear both and love mixing it up. I was smart. I was wearing a bunch of my bracelets when I went and wear them on my right hand, my watch on my left, so was able to give it a nice balanced look! Yay! And the necklaces are so pretty...I just love the real antique look to them!
Today has been fairly quiet, so far. I am a little crampy. It is pouring out and is supposed to rain all week long. Ugh. I put up another box of tarot, but this is the slowest selling day of all, so won't put anything else up for a few days. Slowly but surely I am getting there. I would love to just open one drawer and see all my favourite decks and nothing more. That would be perfect. This collection and selling it has been so overwhelming. I can't wait until it is over. I love reading and it is really dipping into my quality reading time. Other than that is it puttering around, a few chores, good tv tonight. Both Game of Thrones and then the Borgias are on so I look forward to a rather relaxing mellow day and plan to burn a scented candle!!

well i hope your cramps go very soon! and enjoy your evening. i am about to get ready for bed to watch a horror movie with nick! i'm just on specktra while wearing a face mask! lol! i filmed 3 tutorials today and my face is feeling a bit sensitive from removing so much makeup over and over! i find it easier to film in bulk!
also due to my ass manager now saying he will not be in work all week due to stress (like i am not stressed myself?!) i shall be working 6 days so will not have any time on my normal day off. i even had a 3 hour nap today which i never do because obviously me not sleeping right has caught up with me

Is the face mask to scare Nick with before the horror film has even started? LOL
Sorry your 'ass' manager (appropriate abbreviation perhaps?) is causing you to have to work more days and get more stressed out yourself. I'm glad you managed to catch up with a little sleep today, though.
My day didnt start too well today - I woke up to find we had a blocked toilet. I tried with what I had available, but couldn't do anything with it. Luckily my parents got back from their holiday yesterday, so Dad was able to bring some things over and fix it for me. It was also lucky that the kids slept in so weren't in desperate need of the loo before it could be sorted.

Lou~So sorry to hear about the co-worker. All I can say is that he must have something seriously going on with him, though why he doesn't come forward with it is beyond me. Maybe he needs to be reminded that he is replaceable or bring in a doctor's note proving he cannot presently work and needs a leave of absence but will plan to come back? Not sure of the situation or how things work over there! Let's hope something very good comes out of this in the long run. Maybe a new assistant manager that will work well for you and not play games. Then again let's hope that something super serious isn't going on with him either, which can always be the case.
Thank you,, rocikn! I love my new found necklaces. They sparkle and look good on me! I will have lots of fun wearing them!

the best part was that he this to me on staurday that he wouldn't be in because of stress - yet then said he was GOING to the dr's on monday (today) to get signed off. how nice of him to see into the future! he is just making things worse for himself right now and sadly i feel he is blinded by his mum and families views- they are the ones who have told him not to come in.
Wow, Lou. Sounds like a mess at work and I am sorry about all the stress and extra work load this is putting on you. Be sure to pamper yourself throughout the week with fun nails, good movies, scented candles and lots of husband/feline snuggles! Nothing makes one feel better than playing "stalk the kitty" on you hands and knees! I want a cat again. lol Hehehe....Day 2 of rain is here. I am going to spend some time moving my decks around and figuring out the last few bunches for the next round. And maybe get around to ordering New Order from Sephora. I love that glittery stuff. If nothing else I can use it on Halloween! The really scary pink glitter fairy!

New Order will be gorgeous in the summer .... and it gives the option for those who like glitter to be able to add this quality as much or as little over top of any of their existing blushes since it's quite sheer.
yup i agree with this! it makes a lovely blush topper!
Urban Decay Alice Tutorial - here is my second tutorial for specktra
hopefully you guys will like it!I will have to watch your new tutorial, Lou!! Today is another wet and windy day, but the whole week is going to be like this, so I have to get used to it. It certainly does not feel like May. It feels more like March. This is going to be a very short summer. In less than a month we have the longest day of the year and then they start getting shorter and shorter and...am I depressing you all? Hehehe.... Seriously, though. I can tell it is going to fly by and it will be fall before I know it. A very sobering fact. It is too cold to even have the windows cracked open.
So, I am all gross and crampy, with 5 boxes of tarot waiting to go out, so I won't plan anymore until these move and reach their destinations. I'm watching loads of movies today, everything from Agnes of God to Little Women and anything in between! I just want to sleep. And I have to get New Order. Is that permanent to their line or just a summer thing?

Sorry i have only just seen this! i think new order is now a perm item but i am not 100% sure. and i hope you enjoyed watching all the movies! nice variety! hee hee!I will have to watch your new tutorial, Lou!!
