Good morning everyone
.. Here are the last of my ATC swaps .I hope your enjoying them as much as I am. I finally recieved my BIG order last night around 6 :30pm ..My UPS man must make it a point to put me last on his List ERRR this bugs me
..
I have at one point asked him if I would be one of his early drop offs But guess he forgot
..
But Hey enough about my slow poke UPS man.
Guess what happened to me yesterday ?? you will NEVER in a million years guess .. Hee! Hee! Remember I told you I had to mail out my last package yesterday
Well I also needed a BIG box to put all the presents into to be mailed, I drop daughter off at school and then my next stop was the post office which opens up at 8:30am I was early so I thought I would be able to get IN and Out in NO time .. well that changed when I drove up and the .line was out the door just from people waiting until they opened .. I remembered back about 3 weeks ago My post office ladies ( Cheryl , Kathy, Mary ..Yes I know them well Hee! Hee! ) Kathy is actually one of my glitter queens YAHOO Kathy .. ok anyway I remembered they told me that they were excited about a new Fed/Ex~ Kinkos store opening up across the street and that this would lighten the load for them at the post office durning the holiday
rush .. So I thought I probably would pay a tad bit more But it was going to be worth it if I didnt have to stand in line so… I left the post office and went to see the new place acoss the street .. Hey I loved it right when I drove up not only is there PURPLE everywhere BUT they were already Open and guess what NO LINE YIPPY!!
well I park the car and grab the presents I was sending and walk in the door I was greeted by the nicest man and woman and they said CONGRAULATIONS !!! YOUR THE 1ST CUSTOMER .. I was really thinking 1st customer of the day right ? BUT NOOOOOOOO I was their 1st customer ever at their new store on their 1st day of their Grand opening .. NO way I yelled out did I win a MILLION dollars the man laughed and said No sorry .. so as me and this woman were trying to pick out the right box ( which by the way they did everything packaged it , stuffed it with brown paper ( just like SU! does with their packages ) and then sealed all up for me all I had to do Is fill out the mailing form YAHOO! gonna love that .. I was really expecting to pay a ton more for service like that and NO lines .. But get this for over a 9 lb package it was ONLY 15.00 and 3 days to get to Maine .. while I was filling out the form the man handed me a bag of goodies and asked me if I had a home computer or a laptop ?
I said I had BOTH and then he said well then I will give you both goodies .. what was inside this bag of goodies I won for being the 1st ever customer ?
a wireless mouse( Hubby) , thumb drive Daughter for school) , coupons , scratch off ticket for a % off , a writing pen, tape, mints, ruler, highlighter.. YAHOO you would have though he did give me a million dollars Hee! Hee!
I of course couldnt wait to call hubby and tell him what all happened .. what a HOOT!! Wait until you see all the Beautiful Chistmas cards I recieved yesterday .. O put all my hand made ones only on my front door this way everyone can see them 1st .. I will post them hopefully tommorrow since I may have over did it with my smileys and everything else today .. ( I love my smileys dont you I just dont use them enough only because it takes alot of space on my bandwidth ..) anyway ..
Today I am going to try something to see if I can do it while I am in TN and maybe if it works I may be able to post to my blog while in TN BUT I will have to see if what I am thinking really will work .. and then also I will be out making deliveries this morning to all my gals
and THEN maybe stamp some goodies ..I do have to make a few more Birthday cards .
Yesterday was my bestest friend Dianes birthday she turned 43 yesterday and I totally forgot to mail out her card
( which her card is going out today ) but I called her last night and chatted with her for over an hour OH MY we sure can talk .. Then I cut out 3 stamp sets I got yesterday gonna use them hopefully today ..
Have a Terriffic Tuesday and thanks for peeking in today .. and I will see you tommorrow .
Until later … Happy Stampin!!

Good morning! I can’t beat you on the UPS thing…my normal deliveries don’t get here until 6:30 or so BUT during Christmas deliveries don’t arrive until as last as 8:30. Can you imagine being those poor drivers?
I know all of my post office people too from when Todd was deployed and I was in there sending stuff all the time!
Your ATC’s are fantastic…can’t wait to get mine and show them off!
What fun at fedex/kinkos! You are such a sharing person that you deserve a treat like that!
Have a fantastic Tuesday!
WOW! Congrats on the win at the Kinkos!!!
Oh, my you “lucky dog”, congrats on your booty!
Thanks you so much for sharing with me in person what your gift was from Shellie when you dropped off mine & jenny’s orders.
And, thank you thank you very much for going back out to Starbucks and bringing me my favorite holiday drink, Venti Gingerbreade Latte. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm good, as my grandpa would say “it tickled my inners” and made me feel so so much better. You truly are a great friend besides being my demonstrator.
Dawn,
All of the AC cards are so pretty. Do you have an AC trading card book from SU to put them in?
How exciting to win a prize for being the first person to walk through a door. 🙂 You got lots of goodies.
You have your smileys back and I enjoyed them very much. 🙂 Have a great night Dawn.
