Barrettes, Competitions, Who Knows What!

Stef (the friend of mine who is selling the Taylor Love Barrettes with me) told me today that we sold 100 Barrettes! Thank you Miriam Castle for helping us get there!!!! =) If any of you are interested.. you know, you can always shoot me an email, respond to this post, or give me a call! =) Thanks guys!

Now, get this, I'm in this competition, this poetry competition, and I just found out I was selected to move on to the semifinals! There are only NINE other semifinalists in the competition!! I would post the poem I am competing with, but the truth is, I don't remember which one it was.. I've submitted so many I get utterly lost sometimes when they just give me a title to my poem. =) Also, with this, I am being published again! You know last time when I said that excitement just never wears off? It's still going strong on me. I was dancing around my room for a good hour or so, still can't believe it =)

This week is Fall Break, so my dad is taking my brother and I to California. We're going to Disneyland and all, the whole shiz-bang. Ha, ha. =)

Have yourselves a wonderful week ahead of yah! Make it beautiful! Xoxo!

  1. I'd do anything to help Tay, and I'm so glad that I bought some barettes and I can't wait for them to arrive! What poetry contest was it? Was it the one that I entered my Saylor poem in?
    PS- Megan read my little post about Tay and she supports her. Should I tell her about the barrettes?

  2. Aw, thank you Miriam! Did Tay's mom tell you about Stef being on vacation? Well, her trip was lengthened a little bit so she won't be home until this Friday. I haven't been able to contact her yet about your barrettes, I'm SOO sorry, but we will get them to you ASAP!!! Not this one, nope, it was another one I entered online.
    Oh great, thanks!! Yeah, please do! Spread the word as much as you can =) Thanks so much Miriam!

  4. Aw thanks!! Good, so at least you know why it took me like a month to get in touch with her, ha, ha. I'm so sorry about that! Stef's already got them made so as soon as she gets the payment in the mail she will ship them out. I just had her send them to my address because I didn't know yours and I ended up combining your order with another order of one of my friends. So you paid half shipping and the other gal paid half and it worked out well. Anyways, I will get those to you asap! Thanks again SO much!
