Oh, and I passed my real estate sales licensing exam! I blogged about it on my real estate blog: http://topcaliforniaproducer.blogspot.com/ I'm going crazy with it, I registered my domain too but I'm waiting on Fabian to build my site! www.joyceamoore.com I plan to spend next week interviewing with different real estate companies and hopefully I'll find the right fit.

Not to mention the finishing touches on Madison's birthday party! It should be a lot of fun, I can't wait! Maddy just fell asleep with Daddy on the couch, awww! Now maybe I can try to take a nap myself. My one year old STILL does not sleep through the night.
Don't use Sweet-N-Sassy Inc http://www.sweet-n-sassyink.com/ owner Kristen Amodio, untrustworthy, makes up stories and keeps your money.

Begin vent....

Okay, so I normally would never do this, but I am so mad. I ordered Madison's birthday invitations almost 2 weeks ago and still haven't even received a "proof" that you are supposed to get within 24-48 hours. She claims it was a computer glitch and she didn't get any orders made that day. I understand that, but its not the case because I emailed her immediately when I paid, and it was a response to ALL the order info I received so she would have received it that way if her order system glitched. No response. I emailed her a week later telling her I was trying to be understanding, knowing she is a SAHM just like I am but I still haven't received proofs and I need to get the invitations out. Thats when she responded with the story about the computer glitch and she would refund my money. Days later, still no refund either! I had to file a dispute with Paypal 3 days ago and STILL no refund! I emailed her saying, please refund my money, nothing. So, the lady has my money, and I get no invitations! This is my babies first birthday! Invitations were very important to me. I'm so glad I sent out an evite or else I'm sure not many people would even be able to make it. I'm so frustrated and mad at the whole situation. I mean, I have an online business, you can't do that to people and expect to stay in business. I have dealt with many SAHM businesses and they have all been professional and very quick! I ordered Maddy's birthday outfit from one and she made it and shipped it within 3 days!

SO, all that to say, Sweet-n-Sassy Ink, STINKS. Don't use them, stick with someone reputable. I won't say only use a big company because like I said, I understand the SAHM, just use someone honest and trustworthy, not someone who lies to cover their end and then keeps your money!

Vent over.

Its been so long again! I'm ashamed! Well, lets see what happened. Bubby turned 13, Renee gave birth to Mackenzie, I turned 30 (had a great party!), I'm studying for my real estate salesperson exam that I'm taking next Friday. This weekend my mom and I are taking a crash course from Prudential. 8 hours both Saturday and Sunday! And on top of it, I'm watching a video crash course flash review that I bought last year. And taking care of Maddy and running after her. She's still crawling, but about 2 weeks ago she started climbing up the stairs and she wants to do that all the time! I let her do it maybe twice a day because its hard bending over while she strolls up at whateve pace she chooses. She copies everything you do and she tries to copy the words you say. She says hi, dada and mama and she's been trying to say "red".

I rejoined Mary Kay too! Just for fun, I'm not going to be high pressure sales or anything with it. I'll order stuff if people want it and other than that, I'll be doing personal shopping : ) They have so many great new products since I was in it 10 years ago! The compact is sleeker and I need an incentive to do my makeup when we go places. I have not been doing my makeup unless we go to a special event. So sad, I used to be so girly and wouldn't leave the house w/out it!

Okay, gotta go, I think we might go to Best Buy or somewhere, I want to use my birthday giftcard and get some cd's!
