I’ve been a busy little shop owner lately! You won’t be seeing any of these goodies listed for a few weeks though! They’re for the market that I’ll be doing June 8th and 9th here in town!

This weekend was an intense one folks! In fact it might take me until Wednesday to truly recover! Why you ask? Well let me tell you! I got to participate in the Blog Workshop’s first online conference and it was Ah-Mazing! It was Learning, learning and more learning all weekend long AND from the comfort of home! If you follow my on twitter you may have seen the #TBWC13 hashtag used a lot! Here are some highlights of what I learned… “Be busy AWAY from your blog to direct people TO your blog. Engaging elsewhere makes people go digging!” ~ Laura Summers from Naked Blogging  “SEO is leverage! It’s the ability to create traffic with out CREATING the traffic.” Dan R.

This is a sponsored post as part of the Shaklee Corporation blogger program. I have received free products, online support and incentives for participating in the Shaklee Corporation blogger program. My opinions are my own. I am also a Shaklee Independent Distributor. I’ve been putting off this post. I should have written it yesterday… possibly even last week. If you’ve been following for a while then you might have noticed a lack of “Weigh In Saturday” posts. Why you ask? Well because I wasn’t weighing in… I was afraid too! And for good cause. I’ve gained some weight back. I can’t even tell you how sad, frustrated and embarrassed that statement makes me. Honestly, I felt like giving up on the Shaklee program*. Not because it wasn’t working, but because I was failing at doing the things I was/am supposed to. It all started with the tooth ache. Now, please believe [...]

Hubby Time ~ Busy Being Jennifer
I had an extra long weekend with my hubby I mentioned on Saturday that Hubs was switching jobs, which was in and of itself super exciting. The fact that we got 4.5 straight days together was even better, especially since I had to leave him 200+ miles away at the end of it. Not thrilled with the idea of him being gone so much… but sometimes a little sacrifice has big pay off… and this is one of those times! Anyways… we had a fabulous weekend together We … - went to the local 2nd Monday Market. - shopped for things he’d need for the new job. - had starbucks. Ok… I had starbucks. - did some thrifting and I scored some gooseberry pyrex! Thanks to me MIL - Went out for a drive and then ice cream. - Made a yummy dinner together. - Drove to Oklahoma… he [...]
