Happy Mother's Day...

To all mothers and mothers-to-be! Hope you all have a good Mother's Day and, of course, I hope everyone else have a good day. Today I will be going out with my mom and my brother to dinner at Olive Garden, my dad won't be joining us since he's out of town. I haven't been to Olive Garden in forever, so I am happy we are going.

Today is the last sale in both of my shops and I just listed a pre-made Tsumami Kanzashi in my artfire finally. I really need to upload more on that site, but since I am not a verified member, I can only list ten items. One thing I hope Etsy does in the future that Artfire is already doing, sales mode set up, it would be so easy. Etsy members don't have to either edit all of the items or refund through paypal, which makes the customer lose money.

Yesterday I went to Treasure Aisles to pick up my other Tsumami Kanzashi from Aimee and we talked... and then Justin and I saw it! A HUGE peanut butter cup and we had to have it. We also got my mom a small thing of Milk Chocolate Strawberry center bon bons from Aimee's shop. Later that night, I took a bite from the peanut butter cup, it was so creamy and just melts in your mouth. Justin took it home with him to finish off, he loves his peanut butter. My mom and brother loved the strawberry flavored bon bons, which made me happy. The only problem with the bon bons is there is no information if they are safe for vegetarians to eat since my sisters are vegetarians and I want them to eat the yummies. I need to ask Aimee about that, so my sisters know if they are safe or not. I may not agree with my sisters' vegetarian ways, but I do respect them.

I am still working on my article and resume for Handmade News and hoping to be able to send it in today. My boyfriend, Justin, is looking over them to make sure I didn't misspell anything or if my grammar is bad. He is an English major, so yay for me! Good thing about having a boyfriend that's into writing and already in college, he already knows what classes I need to take when I go in. I want to be an author badly and hoping that I can send one of my stories out next year to start the process of trying to get publish. First things first, Handmade News columnist!

Mother's Day is Coming and Job Stuff

Mother's Day is coming up pretty fast, can't believe it is this coming Sunday, but luckily I already got my mom her Mother's Day Gift. Have all of you? What are you getting you for your mother/mom/mama/mum for Mother's Day?

For those of you that have lost your mother, I am sorry for your pain and suffering on this holiday, but remember all the good times you had with her. I am sure she is happy for the person you have become and still loves you.

For those that still don't have a gift for your mother, I am still having a 25% off of all of my items in my shops: http://pastrystitches.etsy.com and http://pastrystitches.artfire.com

Sooooooo you all know how hard I have been trying to get a job and how hard it is in my area to get one. I am trying so hard to get this one job to be a columnist, I love to write! I really do and would so love to get this job. I have been writing stories most of my life, I love to have people to see my thoughts and ideas and being a columnist is one way to do so. It's for Handmade News for the department of Guilds and Teams! I am having a few friends help me with writing up a resume since I haven't done one since high school and I only worked at Wal-mart, so I am way out of practice with resumes.

Wish me luck please!

O_O FASTEST SALE EVER!

I posted up one of my scrabble tile pendants late yesterday... new it was late, but still posted it anyways. I posted the picture of it everywhere I can: Deviantart, plurk, twitter, crafterzone, indiepublic, and so on. I wake up this morning to find that it had sold already! It sold last night!! O_O! I was surprised because I usually don't sell stuff that fast. I am soooooo doing the happy dance now, lol!

So after that one sold I just listed my newer one to etsy and see if it will have the same magic as the other! I am going to try to post one once a day to keep my view up in my shop ^__^.

Also I am trying to get back into posting here everyday again. Bad me for not doing so lately T_T

So Very Excited!

So lately I have been going to job interviews (been jobless for nine months) and filling out applications while working on etsy stuff to sell.

Well today I have been making scrabble tile pendants and talking to people online... and all of a sudden the house phone rings, which I usually ignore b/c it's usually unknown name. My dad answered the phone and it turned out to be for me... so I am like CRAP! Because I thought it would be the credit people after me... yeah, having no money b/c of being jobless, makes a lot of bills pile up and mess up the credit (*shakes fist at medical bills*). Oh well, it is all of my fault for that to have happened to me.

It turned out to be my old job (Wal-mart) asking for me to come tomorrow for a job interview at 10am! I am so excited! I would love to have my old job back ^___^! I am soooooo hoping to get the job!

Then also would be waiting for a call from speedway tomorrow... I don't know if I will be getting a call from them or not, but we shall see.

Too bad I couldn't get both jobs, lol.

Here's to Hoping

Sorry for the lack of posting lately ^_^ I will try to post everyday again!

Today Speedway is having a on-site interview at one of their locations between 9am and 12pm... yes, I have interview with them before, but maybe this time I will get lucky and they will hire me this time. I don't like how early it is for it, but oh well... Mom is dropping me off and Courtney is nice enough to pick me up. I don't care if I get paid minimum wage or get only 20 hours a week... I need a freakin' job. I just hope the day's gloom-ness doesn't take all of my energy way for this interview.

Then later today Justin will be coming over with the 360 for us to play our games ^____^. I can't wait to see him today, as usual, lol. It will be 8 months this saturday ^____^

I will be 24 on the 24th this month, lol, I feel old! Though I feel like I lack a lot at this age, hopefully I will get a job soon... to be able to fix all of that. A car, money for college, money to fix my credit, money to move out... and so on.

Booth 402

A friend of mine (Bon Bon Babe) has a booth at Treasure Aisles and allowed me to put my kanzashi flowers there to sell... so while I was there I got Carrot Cake Bon Bons and Peanut Butter Fudge. They are AMAZING! The Fudge was only 10 dollars for a pound! That is very very cheap, you spend like double or triple that at other places! I can't put it down and Justin can't as well! Justin is a very very picky eater, so yeah, lol.

Everything is reasonable prices and soooo yummy ^___^ I am hoping to take my mom there one weekend.

Oh! And she had scented candles too! They smell so nice. I got myself a cinnamon bun scented one. Also got a pair of earrings too that I will take pictures of later.

If you live in Ohio, you must go to Treasure Aisles at 402! Try the sample of glass candy and pralines! Buy foods, jewelry, and candles. If you don't live in Ohio, go to her site to check it out ^___^ https://www.shakeyourbonbons.com/

So far Justin's mom likes the bon bons a lot as well ^___^ still waiting for my family to try it out.
