Preparing For My First Ever Jewelry Party

I spent most of this evening getting my blog set-up again.  It's been soo long since I accessed it that I had to totally revamp it.  Its up and running now and I have no excuses NOT to use it.  lol

I have a jewelry party coming Dec 9th.  And, thankfully today I got some things done in preparation for it.  I ordered some organza bags from e-bay.  I ordered 2 sizes - 3x4 moss green and and 4x6 Burgundy bags.  I'm really excited about them.  I like the color combination of the two and think I will make them my signature colors. 

I also ordered some business cards today.  I created a business card online and had it shipped.  It was one of those offers for 250 cards for $1.99, but the shipping was lots more.  Especially since I need it for the party - and its a week from Thursday.  Before I hit the final paypal button to confirm the payment ... I called around locally to see what they would charge for business cards.  Calls to the tune of $65 were the answer that I got.  And it was $15 more if they set it up ... but I could create it.  So, I paid the extra $18 shipping to get the other cards here in 7 days time.  Quality probably won't be as good ... but hey ... $65!!!  Nonetheless I've had a very eventful day and got lots accomplished.  It was a good day.  Thank you Lord!  :o)

Please be with my friends Sophia and Nolan.  Heal them Father.  I know you can! 

Unexpected News

I have a couple friends who are sick.  We got news last week that Sophia, 30 years old and mother of Bethany, 6,  has a cancerous brain tumor.  She's at Shands - they did one surgery - but must do another to insert a permanent drain stent because of fluid.  Today we got news that our friend Nolan - in his mid 60's, has lung cancer and has 15+ months to live according to the way the cancer spreads. 

Lord, I don't understand these things.  I trust you to work these things out ... and no matter what ... I TRUST YOU!
