Black Christmas?

It's that time of year. That annoying time when retailers put Christmas stuff up before Halloween. Sigh.

Yes, I was part of it today. I put up a display at Target that featured Christmas cards. Several of the designs are black glitter Christmas cards. Two things: 1. Black for Christmas? Well, it is elegant. 2.  Yes, I am touching loose glitter. I do go home wearing more glitter than I'd prefer some days.

A bit fuzzy but it is wrapped in plastic, thankfully to control the glitter!

DIY

I changed a lightbulb today.

Well, not just any lightbulb. A rear brake light on PT. And yes, I got my hands dirty but that doesn't scare me.

It was broken like this when I got the light lens open.

Now really. Broken while installed? I can only wonder what caused it but at least I fixed it and do not need a new tail light.

Dream!

Today I attended the Go Give Workshop in Colorado Springs. It was wonderful to meet so many wonderful people and learn from so many directors. It was wonderful to be reminded that the Mary Kay business is simple and to be bold.

It was a real treat to meet new National Sales Director Jill Davis.

I look forward to meeting more wonderful women and helping them improve their lives, through beauty or self-belief.

Another Day of Making it All Look Good

I love being a merchandiser for American Greetings. Make it look good, put out new products and repeat.

Here's just a small amount of freight to be worked in, along with my trusty antique handheld computer. It works, but it's a funny old thing.

Yep, I work at the busiest Target in the nation for American Greetings. Busy, busy, busy! It's my part time job that thankfully I enjoy and it helps!

Oh yes!

It was time. Time for popcorn. The man was out having beers with his best friend. My brain was fried from working all day with my merchandising job. After finding box K18 containing the popcorn popper, all I needed was a big enough bowl.

Mission accomplished.

And it was the most satisfying bowl of popcorn I've had in a long time. Or perhaps I've just missed it. Thankfully I haven't lost my touch so there will be repeats in the future. Just not as often as it was when I was living alone (almost daily!).

Please?

Howdy!

I swear I can hear this little squirrel begging me to take him home from Target. I already have his brother, who is on all fours with his floofy tail in the air. He's on the right of this picture, cropped out.

Now look at this dude? Can't you hear him?

Please?

Sun Worshiper

Howdy!

Yes, if there is sun to be found, Ranger will follow it. And nap in it.

Smart girl.

This is her afternoon spot.

Popped Tags!

Howdy!

I scored some good stuff at the Arc Thrift Shop today! I've been wanting a new purse and there it was! Further down the aisle, was a tote bag for me too! Score!

Yes, a Mary Kay purse and tote. Just what I needed! I also got a dress for my Halloween costume. Bwahaha!

Saturday's achievment

Howdy!

Today we got the rest of my moving boxes and stuff out of the garage and into the house! This is good for a couple of things. Progress on unpacking and we will be able to get both cars in the garage soon. My PT in the garage makes me very happy. Very happy.

Little by little, this spare bedroom storage will be unpacked and arranged. Getting there!

First Snow!

Howdy!

Today, the first snow greeted us this morning. There was about 3" of snow on top of the man's Honda when I left for my part time American Greetings job at 8:30am. It melted quick as it warmed up today.

A beautiful day.
