Spring is. . . All in the Handbag

WHERE has the time gone these days?? I am sooo trying to be faithful at updating all you loyal FANS who read my blog. OK...FAN...but still since writing is a total stress release, putting down a few sentences every few days shouldn't be too hard for me...so, to explain where the time has actually gone...Twolia is now LIVE (yes...everything is up and working) and we are anticipating a mass rush to sign-on from the millions of women entrepreneurs looking for a platform for their music and products (handcrafted or otherwise)! Alright, maybe not millions, but I will take a few hundred thousand :)

Any who...Spring is now here and it is time to change that nasty handbag you have been carrying around all winter to a fresh, new look. If you have seen an awesome bag somewhere online and want me to post about it...let me know. Here is my choice for Spring...a luscious orange distressed push lock bag by Melie Bianco. To purchase, just click on the bag....this is similar to mine, but a bit more pricey than I paid last year.

Sunday Morning Twilight Time

Ah...the serenity of a Sunday without anything more pressing to do than read my new book. Not quite the Sunday morning comics of the past....but now I know what all the hype has been about with the book and movie Twilight by Stephenie Meyer (truly an amazing story on how she got published too). I just finished the book in record time - less than 24 hours. I am totally hooked and will now HAVE to buy the box- set as I had originally planned. So, how do I find the time to read a book in such a short amount of time? Of course, no teenager at home demanding my attention. I wallowed in the unbelievable bliss of my own time clock, marched to my own drum. You know what I mean. . .Loved the book and it very much reminded me of Anne Rice 's vampire series (read all of those too). I am a complete sucker for bad boys!!!

Ok...so the morning started out good, then went way down hill from there. You know, teenage drama queen and stressed-out mom. As usual we had an argument on the way to school. I felt terrible, I can tell she was mad as heck at me. Ugh...So mid-morning I sent her a text saying "I love you sweetpea." I got a text right back from her saying she loved me too.....(big sigh) I FELT so much better and I think she did too. It took seconds to make a better day for both of us! Most everyone knows I am NOT a huge fan of texting if it is not welcome, in fact, it can be quite annoying, but I knew this was the right thing to do. So was the bubble bath this evening...no stress in my life tonight. Of course, the night is still young!

Oh...and for you handbag snobs like myself...one of the lovely Twolia bloggers, Fashion's Side dish: Boots, Bags, Baubles and more, had this on her blog today...totally awesome and a have-to-have someday, Diane Patent handbag.

Why isn't Monday, Friday?

That was one short weekend and this will be one long week. GoldCalJr. Volleyball was ALL day Saturday and although lots of fun to watch, it does make the weekend go by too fast. Leaving Sunday for housecleaning, laundry, shopping, etc. no wonder I am tired already! While I read up on all those Twolia & Blogger blogs I love to follow (check out my blogroll...I am still updating), I still have to find time to write my own. I am Twittering these days...you can find me here TwoliaDeb. OK...I am getting tech-ier (is that a really word?) by the day...but shopping is still my first love! I want to get the Twilight book series at Amazon soon. I am sure I can make some time to read these...Caitlin may like them too. Who knows?
