introducing cordially invited.

the past two days i stayed home from the office. i have taken a second job with travis's company, sixbyte, and i thought i would knock out a lot of things at once and then just worry about maintenance along the way. they are not putting pressure on me to do this, i really just couldn't stomach the idea of going into addison. claudine has been really sick this week and david was rude to her in saying {in the cheesiest voice i have ever heard} "you know what, i'm sick too, but i'm pushing through it. push. push. push. come on now." ugh.

yesterday i got most of the laundry done and tried to knock out quite a bit of work with sixbyte. unfortunately most of the work i'm to do is online and all of the sites that i needed were down. i contacted tom and christopher about the issues, but have still heard nothing back.

today i had planned to go to work, but then realized that i had a 7:30 meeting, and i didn't want to show up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed {whatever that means} after i was supposed to have been sick. how many people get over the flu in a day? so i decided to spend another day at home with the pup. i've never been one to call in and especially for no reason, but these days i don't know how i can stand any more of addison.

i spent a large portion of the day today working on cordiallyinvitedinvitations.blogspot.com. i've dreamed of having my own paper boutique for some time now, but the funding is not there at this time. travis and i and jen and i have discussed me putting my designs on a website to start with and at least start generating a buzz about my products. sixbyte has offered to host our site for free, we just need to register a domain and design the site. since i'm not ultra technical when it comes to writing web script, i decided to create a blog instead, with the idea that the website will follow close behind. you can check out what i have so far at http://cordiallyinvitedinvitations.blogspot.com/. please spread the word and share with all of your friends. it does not include all of my designs, but i have managed to get a little of everything on there. it was so refreshing to spend the day cuddled up with the pup, drinking hot tea, and really doing something that i love. {did i mentioned that it snowed today?? 70 degrees on monday and tuesday, then snow by thursday. you gotta love oklahoma.}

travis got home a few hours ago, and we've wrapped up a yummy dinner of italian swiss chicken, pasta, and corn. i've been very proud of us. we went and bought groceries and have made a meal at home almost every night this week. no more eating out all of the time.

for now, i am going to go cuddle up with my two boys and finish watching our movie.
