Sold Out!

The Friday after I did my first bake sale, I did another one in the same spot. For some reason, it look longer to get going in the right direction. I sat there for the longest time, feeling like I'd made a horrible mistake trying that a second time around. HOWEVER, by the end of the day... I made an even bigger profit than what I made the first time around. I was so pleased with myself. Two Thursdays spent up all night, baking my little heart out, to sit in the heat. But it's ALL worth it!

I went through with the yard sale on August 7th as well. The weather was bad that day (rainy all day the day before, and all that morning), but I pushed through and did it anyway- even after having to start late. I also had baked goodies out for sale there, too. Granted, I didn't earn a fortune at it, but I made more money than I had been making at the bake sales and there's enough left over to hold bake sale #2 on the first weekend in September.

Now, after three weeks of organizing for the yard sale, and baking ALL night... I need some rest! My birthday is Saturday, and I've taken a vacation day off from work tomorrow and I'm going to RELAX. As much as possible, at least.

Tomorrow night, I'm going to have dinner with my dad and his girlfriend. Saturday I'm going to the movies with my boyfriend, then dinner and midnight bowling with some friends. Then Sunday it's dinner with the rest of my family. Hoping for a super rewarding and fun and stress-free weekend after all of this exhausting work!

The GREAT news is that I am confirmed for the Atlanta GLAMINAR! I'm in! I'm in! I'm in!

And, for the record, Kandee Johnson is the MOST AMAZING person ever! I absolutely love her! Seriously, she's AMAZING.

Now, all the money I'm putting back gets to go towards cosmetology school. Hoping to get a tiny bit of cash in some birthday cards this weekend, haha. I've never really asked too much for birthdays before, but this year I have requested money for school.

Will update again soon!

Love!
