Poor Little Guy...

Please say a prayer for my little Preston today. He is having a tooth pulled, a spacer put in and a cavity filled via a mini root canal. My nerves are shot because I know he has no idea what all is involved with this, and it absolutely kills me to think of him in pain.

What More Could a Girl Want!?

Last month when I went out to McKinney Trade Days, I met the sweetest mother-daughter jewelry making, T-shirt selling team. We struck up a conversation, and they mentioned they do home shows. I took a card, and told them they'd be hearing from me! The very next weekend at the Heart of Texas craft/art show, I met another lady who sells handbags, scarves...the cute ones you see girls wearing with a little tank...T-shirts, jewelry, and more...I took her card. I called them the next week and set up a show at my house with a bunch of my friends...who brought their friends! I took a few pics of the food before everyone arrived with the intentions of taking pics of all the goodies after they set everything up...but I got completely sidetracked and forgot...I swear I am so ADD. I ended up with a new handbag, 2 T-shirts, a tank, a necklace, and one of those cute all-in-one wallets that have a clasp on the side. What more could a girl ask for...food, wine, friends, and shopping...without even leaving my house!

Somehow the number of brownies dwindled down to about 5 before anyone even walked into the door...I caught Carter sneaking them 3 times!

The flowers...

Customer Service...

Last Saturday I went and had my nails filled, and when I was walking out the door, I noticed they were thinner than they had ever been. Seriously I think I could have thumped them off but decided to see how they did because I am so ADD and couldn't stand the thought of sitting in that chair another second. Fast forward a few hours, and 1 nail had already chipped...not good. Next day...another one. One more day passed....2 more. That was it...I decided to go back last night to get them fixed. I gathered my composure and receipt, walked into the establishment...won't mention the name, but it is VERY close to my house...and asked to have my paper-thin appendages repaired. The guy behind the desk asked me who did them, and my little fella just happened to be sitting in close proximity. I pointed him out, presented my receipt, and casually sat down to wait my turn. When he finally made it my way, he asked me what happened and who did my nails. I explained it was him and showed him the results. He them proceeded to raise his voice and accuse me of lying saying he was positive he didn't do my nails, that my nails looks like they had been done 2 weeks ago, that I was not there on Saturday and literally told me I was lying...Okay, dude...I sat staring at you file, drill, and basically destroy my nails for an hour and a half...I know it was you. After he continued to argue with me, I...still calm...picked up my things, and went to find the manager.

Long story short, the manager's wife led me to another station, gave me something to drink...actually a nice glass of Chardonnay...and hooked me up. Her husband graciously "righted the wrong" and stayed open late while his son and daughter...I ended up knowing their teachers...talked my head off. All ended well, but I couldn't help wonder...WHERE HAS CUSTOMER SERVICE GONE?????

Easter Humor...

HAPPY THURSDAY!
