Been awhile...

Sorry, it's been awhile since I've been on here. My life has been crazy busy these past couple weeks. Kids keep getting sick, I keep getting sick... meh!!! Dylan had his Pack meeting the 10th of this month and earned his popcorn sales badge as well as his red vest! :) He was beaming from ear to ear. We were busy this whole past weekend, we had a fall festival that I took the boys to. They got to go on a hayrack ride, make smores, had hotdogs chips and cookies for dinner, got to play on inflatable rides, face paintings, puppet shows, paint pumpkins, and go on a firetruck and ambulance :) Saturday morning I participated in a vendor fair. I did pretty good in my opinion. 200$ in sales :) The whole point of the vendor fair was to raise money for the food bank here in town we managed to raise between table fees, bake sale, and raffle 527$ for the food bank! Think what they can do with that much money! Saturday night was my cousins annual bonfire, he had a haunted house that the kids got a kick out of, there was a band that played they were pretty good, and we had food to munch on there as well :) Then, last night was trick or treating!!! Boy oh boy the kids hit the jackpot! Three grocery bags later they were pooped out and so was mom! I am still doing my AVON but, will be signing up to sell thirty-one gifts in two weeks. I am mainly doing it b/c I wanted a couple bags but they cost like 89$ for just the two bags vs 99$ for the entire kit that comes with like 10 different bags and includes the two bags I wanted! I like their products and have had a couple friends say they need a rep b/c they can't ever find one so I figured worse comes to worse I will make extra cash with it and get the bags I wanted for a decent price :) I may even decide to make it my full time venture and do AVON part time but for now I love AVON products and opportunity :) I am getting excited for the holidays! I cannot believe Turkey day is in three weeks?! I'm ready for it just can't believe it! Well, I hope this week is a little more mellow so I can post on here :) Have a good day! :)

Where did this week go?!

Seems, like I just woke up and it was Monday and here it is Friday!!! I got my house organized and rearranged... so hard to do when  you first move into a place... Least for me it is... I like the way it is set up now though, more comfortable and more convenient... I really wish I had a storage shed though it would help quite a bit!!! Even though we have a house we don't have a basement or a place to store stuff so I kinda feel like I'm in an apartment, only I have a yard! lol So, anyways our week was a decent one. Had my cousin Michael stay the night Wednesday, Andrew and him ended up staying up the whole night playing the campaign for gears of war 3. They seem to get along pretty well. :) A.J. kept calling Michael hey man... which was funny. Tomorrow Dylan gets to go out with his pack to pick a pumpkin at the pumpkin patch and decorate them with the elderly at the nursing home here in town. He will enjoy that he loves "old people" and they seem to get a kick outta him.. I am still doing my AVON and doing pretty decent with it. Course, I need to recruit more people. So, I plan on using one of the mornings A.J. is in class to go recruiting in Boone. As like most people, my dream has always been to be my own boss and run my own business.... I am working to get to this goal, mind you there have been some "bumps and snags" along the way but I really feel I'm doing something right for a change. Which scares me because I'm so used to messing everything up or having everything go sour for me..... I am also getting back into crocheting and thinking about selling some of my projects :) I will be making scarves, and hats, and blankets and anything else somebody requests :) so keep watching for when I come out with my stuff ;) Anyways, sorry if this wasn't very "well put together" but, I wanted to post on here as I'm trying to keep family/friends as updated as possible! :)
