Giveaway winner & etc.

First thing is first: Ela from Extra Dressing On. The. Side is my first giveaway winner! She will receive the crystal dragonfly necklace I made. Congratulations, Ela!

Also, I wanted to update you on the sour cream lady. She never showed up to work on Monday. In fact, the regular secretary was back from maternity leave. When I asked the secretary why she was back early and where sour cream lady was, she said she didn't know. All she knew was that the office manager called and asked her if she could come back to work a week early. So I guess that's the end of that...? Although, I have to admit, I'm still very curious about everything. Where did she go? Why did she snap? Sigh. I guess that's just the investigative journalist in me...

This week has been pretty strange for me. I feel like I'm on a roller coaster. One day I'm up, the next day I'm down.



Unfortunately, today happens to be a down day. I'm feeling hopelessly depressed. I feel fat, ugly, and lame. I'm dreading going to work. I just feel awful and unwanted. Today is going to drag by verrrry slowly, I'm afraid.

Anyway, I'll stop there because I don't want to drag anyone else down with me! Ha.

I hope everyone else has a better day!

    I totally have those days as well! Even the most fabulous of girls have blah days! I'm so sorry to hear you are having one, because I think you are wonderful! So very cute (not fat at all!!) and clever (hello? Sour Cream Lady? So funny I died reading it.) I hope that your day turns around. Do something that makes you totally happy. For me its heading to the bookstore by myself and indulging in a mocha with whip and reading novels from the YA section. kinda sad? sure, but it makes me happy. So find something today to do just for you that makes you smile! and don't worry because we all know how fabulous you are!

    xoxo

    Is that bike a Triumph? I think it might be, and Kate Moss is doing truly terrible things to it with her crotch. Cheer up - everyone has off days!

    hey lady...i find on those days the best thing to do is realize what you have to look forward to. a trip? an event? a party? keep it in mind because it will keep you going

    we all have those days. but remember how awesome you are, and that the best is yet to come!

    ps. you're not fat or unwanted or any of that ok? promiseee

    You know what helps me when I think I'm about to have a bad day? I focus on colors! Bright ones for gloomy days and pastels for moody days! Believe it or not but it really helps!
    p.s. You know the color samples in the paint department, well I grabbed some of those in brights and pastels and made a little flip book to carry in my bag!!!:)

    Congratulations Ela!

    Darling, we all have days like that. You must simply do something that makes you cheer up - I tend to look at cupcakes (how can you not smile when you see one), or indulge in a little retail therapy. Sometimes buying something new is just the trick to make you feel good about yourself. I hope today turns out better than yesterday.

    By the way...strange about the sour cream lady. I'm really not surprised she was...let go? She may have been a danger to other employees in the future; seeing as how she flew off the handle the way she did. :/

    hey girl, that post was published halfway done. lol. but thanks for being the first to comment. perhaps you wanna check back and see what excatly the post is about?

    btw, I hope you're feeling okay now. that crazy roller coaster fellings are normal to anybody, i guess. I've got my share too and they're really bad coz it affects everything that I do and everything around me. The good thing about it is, it does not stay. It goes, then comes back, then goes .But at least, it doesn't stay, right? lol. :)

    enjoy your Sunday. :)
