Today was relatively quiet and peaceful. The weather changed drastically from a balmy 70 degrees yesterday to a bitter 35 degrees today. I got up this morning and made blueberry streusel muffins, and Kyle and I went to my Dad's for the day. We ate, watched the Patriots and ate some more. I got to spend some time with Lex, who is turning into a ( Read more... )

I'm just being dramatic, really - but I'm rather pissed at myself ( Read more... )

My sweet husband and I are buying our first home next week, and I want to be able to pack up and move as little of my inventory as possible! Therefore, for the next week (until our closing day, Oct. 9) I am offering 25% off your total purchase on everything I have in stock! This includes the following ( Read more... )

I spent the weekend running around like a mad woman, so I feel like I didn't get much of one. It's all good though.

Saturday I did a customer appreciation event at Terry Costa, which sells casual dresses, formals and bridal gowns. We raffled off a Satin Hands set and got quite a few names. I then did a skin care class for a group of four Nigerian ( Read more... )

I have a challenge on the table right now to do 100 facials by June 30. I have done 39, so I'm definitely on track to complete this goal - but many of those I hold near and dear to my heart are miles and miles away! And so...my question is whether or not you would like to participate in an experiment -- facials conducted remotely?

Here's how it ( Read more... )

Holy crap, time flies!

Work has picked up a lot. Tomorrow and Friday I will work in a store, which I'm excited about. So much of what I understood about Starbucks came from my experience working in a store, and that is one thing I've felt has been lacking in my training - I just don't really have a clue how GameStop (the store) works. I'm looking ( Read more... )

Hello, lovely ladies! (And the sparse but present gentlemen who visit this site!)

Just wanted to let you all know that I am offering a 25% off discount to all the hard-working mothers out there...now through May 10! I always offer free shipping, and all orders placed by the Wednesday prior should be there by Sunday.

First week: check. I love my GameStop job. The team is interesting, everyone is really nice to me (if not always to one another, which I guess is par for the course with office politics) but I'm hoping to remain Switzerland for a while. I learned that for the first month and 1/2, my team wants me to learn everything I can about different ( Read more... )
