for the love of sidekicks
it's a wrap.
your mini diaries are officially out and about, on their merry way to your holiday houses. i have my fingers crossed they will arrive in the nick of time. i am learning more and more about running a small business each go-around. this time, i utilized the paypal multi-order shipping labels. hooray. and i finally bought a little scale for mailing purposes and i adore it. not only does it feel official but it has been my trusty sidekick. that and the scotch tape have been working over time this season. not to mention a willing husband who braved the post office for me. i was not about to tackle my load of packages, an inevitable long line and my little one all at once. if you've got a package weighing over 13 ounces, be warned. thank you for your orders, especially with my last-minute batch of diaries.
today me and my littlest sidekick are making bread, to give dan a proper thank you. the mixer is whirring, the washer is rolling and benj is at my feet, clanking cheap pie tins together. i suppose these are the sounds of the season.

Ha! I went to the post office last night. Stood in a ridiculously long line. I think everyone there thought I was crazy...I was grinning like an idiot because I kept thinking, "I am so glad I didn't have to do this with my toddler in tow".
Your daily posts are truly making my holidays bright. Thank you for sharing your perspective every day.
what a sweet husband and sweet little boy. those are the best kinds of sidekicks!
Loved the colours of the wrapping and the bakers twine too. xx
i got mine! thanks. it is so beautiful. i love that i have known you almost all my life. i still treasure that beautiful poem you wrote about me years ago. merry christmas marta. hope to see you around.
Can't wait to get my new mini diary's in the mail. Whoohoo!
hooray! i'm wishing you a happy ending to a hopping season for the mini mart.
bread making... mm.. i think i've forgotten what that feels like. why has it been so long? thanks for reminding me.
I had my fat little package peeking out of the mailbox when I arrived home from a week-long work trip. I wanted the multi-pack for the women in my life who are thoughtful and appreciate details, but don't necessarily have the attention span or time for a full journal entry (like my sister, who claims not to have any time to read a book). And, of course, I kept one for myself. Thank you!!!
