Phew!

Well, it's been a VERY busy week around here!

DH has had a horrid cold/flu/something that has been sticking around for nearly a whole week! Ugh.

Wednesday, I was at a conference all day learning about employment law -- I know, contain your excitement!! ;-) I had a hard time too!

But then, THURSDAY! Thank goodness for Thursday! Because, the lovely man in the brown uniform brought a GIANT box to the office for me! YAY! It was all I could do to not to spend the rest of the afternoon looking at and playing with my starter kit for Stampin' Up!! But, I got to spend plenty of time playing later that night when my upline came over to walk me through the kit and talk about getting started. I'm really excited to be getting started -- I think I might even start the whole thing off with a bang and order the Big Shot on my first order!

Today, I've been cutting and sewing like a madwoman -- I've had the stuff for my son's Hallowe'en costume for about a month, but between work and house stuff, haven't had a chance to start it. With a whole lot of luck, he'll get to dress up as an elephant. Worst case scenario? He knows that a ghost says "Boo!" and we can probably russle up a white sheet! *grin*

This week is going to be another busy one, but I'm determined to finish the hallowe'en costume and get some stamping in. I also need to pop over to my neighbour's house -- she's agreed to be a hostess (yay!) and is using any of her hostess rewards as raffle prizes for her Crop for the Cure in January. Hopefully, we'll be able to earn a whole bunch of free stuff for her!

So Excited!

Well, I've had my first commenter (hi Elizabeth!)!

I've gotten my SU! login, so I've been trolling through the site, soaking it all up like a sponge! ANNDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD! I just got an email today saying that my starter kit is shipping!! Hooray! I cannot wait until it gets here! It's being delivered to my office, so it's gonna be hard to not rip it open and play as soon as it arrives (somehow, I think my boss might frown upon that!!) I think that hoping it will show up tomorrow before the weekend is wishful thinking! Somehow, I don't think it'll ship that fast up to Canada! hahaha!

I'm so excited to get started with this! I think it's going to be a blast! Anyhoo, off to my craft room to play for a bit before my little one wakes up! I'm home today because he had his 15 month appointment with the doctor -- doing good, growing like a weed, didn't like his shots too much, but I can't say that I blame him!!

Cheers! Mel

Welcome!

Well, this is my first official post.

Tonight, I'm signing up to become a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. I'm extremely excited about this opportunity and am looking forward to getting to know new people and share my love of these products!

I've only been stamping for about 4 or 5 months, but when you find a good thing, you just know that it's right for you.
