Good morning Blogsphere!
Have you ever had a day when you woke up and despite the weather - the cold, the clouds, the gloomy day - you just felt like sunshine on the inside?
Last night was wonderful! Scott and I went for a late dinner, and then a bit of dancing. I love to dance, and that man is smooth sis-ta let me tell ya! We stayed out till about 1:30 AM, despite the fact that I have a huge work day today. I didn’t care. It just felt so good to be so close! ::giggle::
I woke up at 6:30! Can you believe that? After not getting home until so late, I figured I’d probably sleep the morning away, but my lil brain was firing neurons bright and early!
Cher and I have been working on getting new products listed for our Shop over on Etsy. I’m really excited about this new venture. She’s got my bags, and is supposed to be photographing them outdoors (I leave that up to her because I truly SUCK with my lil dinosaur of a digital camera) but her weather isn’t cooperating either. None the less, please go check it out. Tell me what you think of the banner graphic because its Chloe Made LOL.
I’m hoping the shop does well, and the items I put on consignment yesterday do well too because…..
(Drum roll)
I’m going to ALABAMA for EASTER!!!!!
Scott asked last night if I would consider coming. Its something we’ve briefly touched on anyway in other conversations, and I told him, as long as I can stay in a hotel, that would be fine. SO! ALABAMA HERE I COME!
Can ya tell I’m a bit psyched about it?
Okay okay, I know you’re all dying for the skinny on my beau, so here ya go -
He’s 35, about to be 36, born in April of 1972 to older parents who are both deceased now. (Father was retired military).
He has one sister who is 3 years his senior and had a brother who died at age 3 in a drowning accident.
He was born in Atlanta Georgia, but his family moved to Alabama when he was 7. First they lived in Mobile, then some smaller towns but settled in Montgomery when he was in his freshman year of high-school.
He attended Auburn University where he obtained his MBA in Marketing and a BA in Visual Communications Technology. He also recently completed a BA from The University of Phoenix On-line in e-Commerce.
He currently works as the Art Director for a major publishing company who’s headquarters are in Birmingham, with branch offices in Atlanta, New York, Chicago, and Dallas. I can’t say which for legal purposes.
He owns his own home in Montgomery, near his sister and her family and when he doesn’t work from his home or isn’t flying around the country, he commutes 1.5 hours to the Birmingham office. He says he’s never considered moving to Birmingham because his sister lives in Montgomery. (They are very close)
He is 6′ - 2″ tall (almost an entire foot taller than me), is very muscular (He loves to ski - both water and snow - plays baseball with a city league and swims a lot). He’s got the prettiest blueish-green eyes I have ever seen, has sort of sandy blond hair that is lighter on the top from being out in the sun… ugh! I just can’t describe him enough to do him justice. He’s BEE YOO TEE FULL!!!!!!
There are just so many qualities I find totally endearing about him! Like the fact that his sister has 3 kids - 2 girls and a boy - and although he doesn’t want to have kids of his own, he loves his nieces and nephew and does a lot of things with them. His sister’s husband is military and has been deployed since last May, so he spends a lot of time with her and her children.
Or the fact that he loves animals - which, I do to, which is why I don’t own one, because I am so goofy I may just accidentally kill it or something.
He’s musical - plays guitar with a group of friends, and also plays piano.
Anywhoodles - probably the thing I like most about him is that he respects me and my values and beliefs. When I told him I’d come if I could stay in a hotel, he didn’t even flinch! He just smiled and said “of course.” He did offer to pay for the room, but I won’t allow it.
