Sunday, March 27 for MVM

Hey everyone, guess which color I picked!

Ok, so I have to figure out the new format, but I'll get it eventually LOL! Sure was a surprise to see it tho.

Ok, been my usually busy these last couple days. Today was spent doing the running I couldn't do yesterday with the bank closed, so I actually put life and limb at risk (others, not mine

) and went to Wallyworld today. It really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Imagine the sale prices on candy come tomorrow night/Monday morning! Then it was back home to make up soaps and lotions for the orders I got this week. Quite a bit to do, but I have 90% done now, even cleaned up! Well, with soap, cleanup is EASY

These orders will be carried by the driver that goes between 2 places and then us, so hopefully the happy customers will tell their friends and more orders will roll in. If this does take off, I could be one busy person!

Shawnee, glad you enjoyed the company! But it's always nice to have the house back to normal. Hope you get a good bit of rain without flooding. Are they calling for any of it to go into the mountains as sneaux? My MIL went to Mt. St. Helens in the mid/late 80's while on a trip with friends. She was awed by the devastation and regrowth.

Julie, are you enjoying that book yet? I haven't taken time to read in quite some time...too much going on here for me to sit my butt down and read just for fun. Now when the next Harry Potter book comes out, I'll go into hibernation with it!

Zip, sounds like you get your $800 worth out of that membership. Especially when you can do the 2 week freezes like you've done. Try what Loretta said on the no-flush niacin...and get away from the sharp edged pills! Have these given you a hot flash yet?

Loretta, great pic! Hope you get that one printed out for the wall of fame...it's sure a keeper! My brother has Hondas and loves them, and we had a prehistoric one many years ago....it was a 76-79 model, and I MEAN a 76-79 model (3 cars put together). Hope your DS gets over the soreness soon with no lasting problems.

Linda, feel better soon!

and get well wishes. Good for you choosing to stay home and not risk spreading the joy.

Barb, you have a gorgeous view out there! WOW! Glad you enjoyed the trip, know all about long car rides. If we go to MN, it's a 16 hour drive. Amazing how sore you can get just SITTING!

Jacki, hows things with y'all? Will the rain mess with the remodelling plans or is the outside finished?

Well, all, off to bed for me. Will check in as I get a chance later today

OMG Ginny, you posted this thread 20 minutes before I posted mine last night and I didn't even see it. Sorry.

Been looking into soap making and it's intriguing. Would only make some for myself and DH...maybe family too but don't have the patience to do what you do with it.

Do you have some pictures of your soap bars and lotions? Would love to see them.

OrchidCactus · 03-27-2005, 08:27 PM

Linda, check your email......there will be an attachment, so don't worry, it's from me.

OK, I'm confused....how did I miss THIS thread?

Ginny, Hey!

Gotta tell ya, I had a great mid-afternoon! Kaci brought the Pups over...then we took them to our newly-opened PetSmart Store. So fun watching them in there...like KIDS in a Candy/Toy Store. Pups got petted and admired (of course!)

Montana, Ginny's lotions/soaps smell good enough to eat ! The Shower lotion/soap stuff is so nice, I just pour some in my hair, and work it down over my body (Don't tell Ginny I use it for shampoo, etc...)

Ginny, if you have something in Coconut, E mail me....(even if ya don't, I WANT stuff!)
BTW, strange but true: Coconut and Mint together makes a great fragrance.
Have ya used any of your products re Pups' baths?

LoveMontana · 03-27-2005, 10:40 PM

Ginny,

I didn't get an e mail from you for some reason. Would love to see a list of your "products" since Shawnee gave them such a rave review.

LoveMontana · 03-27-2005, 10:49 PM

Duh, OK got it now and will browse through your lovely stuff. I can almost smell it over the INTERNET. Never mind the scratch and sniff option
