Eye Candy

Last night I went to the Y, spent 25 minutes on a treadmill then switched to anothr machine that was by th fan cause it was HOT and I was sweating to death.  I had planned on just finishing my remaining 15 minutes (I aim for 40 minutes total cardio).  Then - in walks Mr McHottie!  Tall, dark hair, muscle-y ... was enough to keep me on the treadmill for 25 more minutes ... that was when he left lol  Made my night! 

SPCA

Today I took Chandler, her friend Candace and Haiden to the local SPCA to do some volunteer work.  We walked the dogs and spent some time in the cat room.  Some of the dogs don't get walked unless vounteers come to help out.  We made sure that every dog got out of his or her cage today.  My favorite dog is a black lab they call Jasper, about 6mo to 1 yr old.  He was a stray they picked up in May. My favorite cat is a tiny waif of a critter, white with carmel spots - I called her toasted marshmallow. She enjoys climbing on peoples heads and biting ears.

Hi, my name is Dork

Forgot to take out something for dinner so we decided to pick up pizza on the way back from Tori and Hai's Dr appointment.  Dominoes hooked us up and as we were walking out the door I thought the box looked more like a medium than a large.  Once in the truck I started scouring the box for some sign of what size they were, reading the small print on the label, guessing at what the numbers mean.  After a while Chandler asks what I am looking for.  I told her and she says "Moooom .... read the lid of the box."  In big letters under the logo it says "Large Box".  My duh lol

The Weiner Mobile!

The other day Chandler and I were driving home from the Y and saw the Oscar Mayer Weinermobile on the side of the road. Pretty cool we thought at the time.  Come to find out later they were going to be at Walmart Sunday afternoon.  Course we forgot about it, but ended up leaving Walmart just as they were setting up.  The kids had this picture taken - Adam wasn't tall enough.

 

Aren't they just the cutest weiners?! lol

Business

So today I got an email from a writer of the local paper who wants to do an article about local people who sell on etsy.  Very cool!!  I recently joined TeamSc on etsy - it's a group of artisians who work with all different mediums who work together to support and encourage each other,  increase our exposure, and in turn, sales!  I've been busier than I anticipated over the summer since I can't ship anything chocolate right now.  It has fallen off some, but I've been doing some eBaying to make up for it.  And of course I'm FULL with extra kids too since school is out.  Exciting things going on!

Things my kids have said ....

Tori, 3 - was asking for her cuppie (sipy cup) but not using good manners so I said "I don't hear any magic words!".  So they she fussed a bit and finally hollered out "Abracadabra I want my cuppie!!"

Haiden - after listening to a HUGE screaming/yelling/door slamming arguement between DH and I, comes up to me and whispers "Mommy - that was SO cool!!"
