We've had a couple busy and exciting weeks around here. My niece, and child of my heart, Tiffany, has been selling Thirty-One Gifts for a few months, and introduced me to their products. I fell in love. She took me to a meeting with area consultants, and after a lot of thought, prayer, and discussion with Mark, I decided to become a consultant, too. I can't remember being so excited to get a package as I was when I opened my big pink box full of Thirty-One products. I got some really cute and very useful bags!

My pantry is finally full after three months of almost exclusively purchasing things that are on sale and/or I have a coupon, and price-matching fresh fruits, veggies and meat. I refuse to hoard canned goods like the folks you see on TV, but now, when one of us needs something, there is about an 80% chance that we have it in the pantry.We also have more variety than we used to, because I am able to buy things I at a greatly reduced price that a few months ago, I would never have purchased due to expense.
Loved the snow we got the other day... finally. It was on the ground for several days, with most of it melting yesterday. We've still got snow on the north side of the house, yet we had the doors open most of the day today. Nicole and I took Little Bit for a long walk this afternoon, and we were amazed at the number of flowers we found in bloom. Most were small wildflowers, mind you, but they were beautiful.. Now that we have had a couple snow-days, I am ready for Spring. Bring it!
I think tonight, I am going to pamper myself a little. It has been a long time since I painted my toenails. Historically, I have not been much of a girly-girl, but I kept my toenails painted all the time as I kind of secret, I guess... I mean, when you are wearing a hardhat and steel-toe boots, the paint on your toes is about the only feminine thing about you. I can't really remember why I stopped, but I suspect it was surgery-related. Anyway, I am pretty stoked about the idea that I am going to do something that doesn't benefit the household in any way. Sometimes, it feels like everything I do is for someone else. It is time I spoil myself a little. I might even have to sneak some good chocolate while I am waiting for my toes to dry.
It's about time to start dinner. I guess if I get it done early, I will have more time to pamper myself later.
Have a great evening, and I will try to randomly post more often!
