Re: MANIC MONDAY!!!!!

  • I am dreading this week. I have my usual kids to sit for but I also have two cake/cupcake orders for Saturday morning. I have a two tier communion cake and 24 cupcakes for one order and 84 cupcake favors for another order. The cupcake favors are what's going to stress me. Not only is it a lot of decorating but each one has to be put in a fancy box with a ribbon and sticker. It's just very time consuming. I have a feeling that Friday I will be pulling an all nighter.

    This past Saturday I did a farm theme cake for a friends first birthday. This is the reason I flakes out in my Friday post (it may happen again this week so if you see I havnt posted feel free to fill my shoes for the day ;) )

    I hope everyone has a fabulous week and enjoy the beginning of spring.

  • @hooligans4 - that cake is awesome.  I wish I was close to you so I could have you make all my cakes.

    This week starts our busiest time at work due to open enrollment for benefits.  It's going to get crazy!

    I got my car Thursday night and it's absolutely awesome - so that's a huge bonus!  Hope everyone has a great week!

  • @hooligans4 - amazing cake! Your talent blows me away :-)

    Not much going on here, just trying to stick to my diet (ha ha ha ha ha) and get some exercise in. I feel like I need a scale but also dont want to have one because then Id be accountable every time I weighed myself. DH says we dont need one sooooo yeah. 

    Also Im addicted to Fabletics!!!! Anyone else know about this company? Check them out online. Their work out clothes are amazing and so much cheaper than places like Lululemon etc. I love their stuff! I bought new clothes over the weekend and am super excited to get them delivered this Wednesday :) Yay!

    @hooligans4 That cake is amazing!

    The first half of the week should be pretty quiet. We have family visiting for a long weekend, arriving on Thursday and leaving on Monday. And then next week I have a short trip to Chicago, so I'll need to do laundry/pack for that. Otherwise, hopefully a nice quiet week!

    I have a crazy week also. Between just the regular end of year nuttiness, I have two sessions of tutoring, an online meeting for a new part time job I'm taking on, and an interview in the south bay on thursday.  Haven't been sleeping very well, so that's not helping.
    I did a bunch of sewing this weekend.  The dress I was hoping to wear today still needs some tweaking.  I finished a simple but comfy sweatshirt. Here's a screenshot, sorry if it's blurry, but my husband "broke" my phone while he was supposed to be fixing it, so the software is all a mess right now, but I'm sure he'll fix it tonight.

  • Amazing cake @hooligans4!!  I also wish I could have you make my cakes for me!  :)

    I've been waiting and waiting and I finally have my consult with my RE this week.  I have two pages of questions for him.  I hope we can figure out where to go from here.  It's hard not to be hopeful that we just got lucky this month and will be pregnant on our own.  Highly unlikely without some sort of ovarian stimulation, but I'm still hopeful down deep in my heart.  We'll see later this week, I guess.

    I hope everyone has a great week!

    (happy you love your car @suziq1978!)

  • @suziq1978 that car is sooooo nice. My car is over 10 years old and I'm counting down till I get a new one. Not looking foreword to a car payment though.

    @rspalding001 good for you with getting healthier.
    I'm going to look up that line of clothes. I'm addicted to workout clothes. But all I buy is from target and old navy.

    @FemShep have fun in Chicago. Is it work or pleasure.

    @Dwmmwd I hope you phone is fixed soon.
    I am amazed at what you can sew. That sweatshirt looks like you bought it. Show a pic of your new dress when you finish tweeting it.

    @emsmama15 good luck with the RE this week. I love that you have two pages if questions. I hope they are all answered. Give us a full report after the apt.

    @jilligan14 everything is edible on the cake. I went nuts but I'm in love with the way it came out.

    Congrats on finishing school. I dream of one day going back.
    My suggestion for your full house this weekend, go to a motel for a few hours on Sunday. It could be fun. Our motels will rent you a "short stay" for just that reason. Look into it lady!!!!

    I own a spa and we are introducing a new treatment this week so I am busy getting all of the marketing done for that plus the spa just being busy because of Mother's Day on Sunday.
    My mom is having heart surgery this week so I'll be a nervous wreck all day Wednesday. I hate that I can't be there with her ...
    Just had first iui this weekend so I'm dealing with cramping and major bloat. Needed to workout tonight but just wasn't feeling it blech... @rspalding001 I love fable tics! I think it's kate Hudsons company.
    @emsmama15 I have a list every time I see my RE. I want info from the source rather than reading all the crazy info on the Internet!
  • Busy busy work week for me. Then short overnight trip on the weekend so have some extra stuff to get done before then.

    @jilligan14 good-luck tomorrow!!

    @hooligans4 love the cake! Fun colors.

    @emsmama15 hope your appt goes well this week.

    @mattiep16 i hope all goes well with your mom's surgery.

    Sounds like I will have to check out fabletics!
