Vera Fever and the Quest of 2008

Posted by ypcice on January 30, 2008

 
It’s official i have Vera Bradley fever… Thanks PJ!!On SundayI purchased the first two pieces of my collection

 

 

 

 

 

 

At first I didn’t like them…then around Christmas I wandered around the store looking at the different styles and I began to like them. My best buds at church have been carrying them for awhile and I thought they looked like old lady knitting/quilting bags.

Well the I found a pattern I liked and then I got and email that said 25% off and it was sold. Once I started carrying my new bag I realized that I needed a bigger bag, a cosmetic bag, and a wallet. I ordered a wallet and cosmetic bag today. And when I get my birthday money I will be ordering the bigger bag.

A lot has changed for me over the last few weeks… I am on a quest for simplicity, organization, and liking me. These are the changes I have made:

1. The Vera Bags

2. I have a Franklin Covey Planner (Thanks Pastor!!)

3. I have a new do…I have a blond fro hawk.

4. As of Monday I will be focusing on losing these 20 pounds I picked back up.

So, 2008 here I come!!!!!

Monday….

Posted by ypcice on January 28, 2008

Wow, the weekend went fast… lately I have been finding myself wondering, “Where did the time go?”  There just never seems to be enough hours in the day.  As each day passes it seems like I find more stuff to do.  I need a clone or some help one.  But, I am rolling with the punches, pulling out my planner and getting focused.  I got stuff to do and it won’t get done if I don’t do it.

It’s a Hair Raising Day!!!

Posted by ypcice on January 25, 2008

Britt has done it again.  She has ignited the hair explosion at WOF.  How you might ask….She came in with some rainbow hair last night…Yes rainbow.  Now everyone is working on hair changes today.  Crystal is at the beauty parlor as we speak.  I just hope she doesn’t chicken out.  Go CRYSTAL!!!! You can do this!!!

I am getting ready to leave as soon as my steering column thaws (whole ‘notha, otha).  I am beginning phase one today and completing it on tomorrow.  I will post pics soon I promise….

Old People R Funny

Posted by ypcice on January 24, 2008

Today I am doing the BFF thing…I am driving Crystal to the Dr to get her raggedy foot fixed, finally. Praise “Foot Fixing” Jesus!!

Well I am sitting here watching these old couples shuffle in and put of the office. They are so cute. The funniest is this lady sitting here all bundled up like it is 2 degrees in the office. She must have been up too late last night because she is nodding off. She is trying so hard to stay awake but its not working. I need her to gon and go to sleep cuz she is about to fall out the seat trying to stay awake. And I don’t know if I prayed hard enough this morning not to laugh if she does. Pray for me, because I don’t have it all. I am a few nickels short a dollar.
