ok so you are probably thinking that i've forgotten i actually have a blog! which ok I probably did for a few days as ive been so busy that i haven't had time to update it (tut tut) but hey here i am now, although i should really be going to bed as i have a very early start tomorrow!!
Well sunday was the day of the pram-a-thon in Paisley, in aid of the make-a-wish foundation. There was a big turnout for they event and thankfully the weather wasnt to bad!! Very windy but dry and warm yay! I was hosting a stall at the event with my Usborne books and i am very proud to say that I helped out at this event. It is a fantatic charity and I am hoping to help them with other things in the future so watch this space!!!
Tomorrow I have to deliver some books to Little Sunbeams toddler group in Irvine. Then at night i will be going along to the local church as there kids jump club is holding their sponsored read that i have organised or them. I am so excitedto find out how much money they have raised through this (the money will be used to buy Usborne books for the kids who attend the group). 2 of my little cousins go to this group and between them they have raised over £100 and there are around 50 kids at this group! With the success of this event i am hoping that i can arrange similar events for some schools and nurseries etc as they will benefit massively from this.
Then I NEED to be home for 9pm to watch the apprentice oh yeah!! lol. I am such an apprentice addict! They are all numpties though lol. I cant believe how much they all love themselves and how arrogant most of them are!! It is hilarious when sir Alan takes them down a peg or 2 lol! Oh i cant wait to watch it tomorrow!!!
Anyway, i best be off 2 bed now. Anyone wishing to know more about the make a wish foundation check out their website www.make-a-wish.org.uk

another busy week ahead!
Well following on from a busy week last week i also have another busy week ahead.
Tomorrow morning (monday) I am taking my books along to a toddler group in Irvine to display them. This is ideal for me as I can take Aidan along with me and while i'm doing 'business' stuff he can play with the toys and make some new friends. Thats probably the best thing about what i do is that i can take him along to things with me and he has fun aswell!
On tuesday its off out to meet a couple of friends and there babies. Wednesday i have a sponsored read event taking place at a local kids club This has taken up hardly anytime to organise at all and they will benefit from hundreds of £'s worth of free books. Then on sunday I am hosting a stall at a fabulous fundraising event. Its in aid of the make a wish foundation and is called pram-a-thon. Its taking place in Barshaw park in paisley and is looking to be very well attended. Its such a great cause that i am so proud to be helping out and i'm really excited about it! hopefully the weather will be good aswell.

busy busy busy
hi well as the title says, for the past week i've been busy busy busy! To start with I got myself a new phone woohoo! Its the samsung tocco in pink and i love it!! Unfortunately I cant use it for a few days as ive switched networks and need to wait for my number to be changed over to new network!!
I also had another book party to do on Friday night at a friend's house. It went very well. The host got £27 worth of free books. I also signed up my first team member last week yay! I'm really pleased that i have managed to convince someone else of how fantastic it is to be an usborne organiser. I'm sure she will enjoy it as much as i do.
It was also my dad's birthday on friday so i was out shopping on thurs with Aidan trying to find him a present - men are so hard to buy for lol.

my new website
I'm sooooo excited! I have finally got around to setting up my own website (well i cheated a bt because its a templated site so I didnt have too much to do but its done all the same lol!)
It has pretty much everything about what I do on there, events, offers, monthly prize draw, online catalogue to browse and buy and more. You can click on the title of this post or the link section to have a look at my site.
Now that I have done this my poor husband now has to reprint all my business cards fo me lol. Thankfully he doesnt mind ;-). He works in a printers and is brilliant at doing the artwork designs etc so he has designed my business cards from scratch and I love them!! Maybe when I should try to upload a picture of one to show it off lol. Ok i'm kind of waffling here lol.
Looking forward to Friday night as I have another book party to do. Also its my dad's birthday so will be going to visit him. Although I still need to figure out what to buy him, maybe I should be doing tat rght now instead of this but hey.
Right I really am going to end this post now as I feel like i'm just waffling on. Hopefully next time I will have something better to talk about lol.

some me time!!
Today I'm having some 'me' time! My husband has taken my son to visit his grandma and grandad for a few hours so I am just enjoying a few hours of chilling out!
Having a look around some websites at the moment then might do some work, as its the start of the month there are new special offers and titles etc released by Usborne so I have to get my stuff updated. That shouldn't really take up much time right enough so after that I, unfortunately have to do loats of dishes :( then I will put my feet up and watch some t.v.
Sundays are such a great day for just being lazy and chilling out lol. Anyway Ive not really got much else to say at the moment without being boring so i'll leave it here! Speak soon!
