Valentine’s Day Party Planning Update

I just re-read my post about this Valentine’s party deal I signed myself up for.

Monthly Outlook calendar checkpoints? Bwahahahahahhaaaaaa!

I never did it once. Now, I am 07:06:51:51 from the party, (see timer on the lower left of this page) and I am, in typical fashion, panicking.

On one hand, I thought ahead and took pictures of each kid in her class at the Winter Fun (Christmas) Party, which I have every intention of printing at Walgreen’s with a cute heart border for them to bring home to their parents. (Now, if I can only find the memory card.)

Moving on, my craft idea is to make little V-day themed snow globes. Messy? Yes. A pain in the hiney to coordinate? Yes. Cool? Totally.

All I have to do, really, is buy all the supplies and call fourteen parents to remind them to send the napkins/cups/juice they committed to in August.

Let the good times roll.

Winter Hiatus

Dear Blog,

It just occurred to me that this is the second year I’ve been writing you, and the second year that I took time off over the holidays.

The little hiatus was not planned either year, but a direct result of the holidays and all of the chaos that goes with them. This year there was another big change: I joined a new company, and started at the end of December. This mama is now just over an exciting month into a job that I can already say I absolutely love.

With this new opportunity has come a bevvy of other new things: Friends, customers, systems, software, equipment, travel, etc. That is a lot of “NEW,” isn’t it? It has left me very little room for new ideas for SWM, too. Rather than try to placate you with half-assed posts, I have decided to write you a letter, explaining myself and promising to give you more, very soon.

I have had some amusing experiences lately, and I am keeping a list of them. I miss you, little bloggy-blog! I promise to be more communicative…

And, since there are only 7 days until the Valentine’s “Friendship Party” at Tootie’s school that I took a solemn vow to coordinate, you can be darn sure that you’ll get a report on that effort!

So, this is it. TTFN.

Miss you.

See you soon!

Love,

Heidi
