DSC_0015Bloom Putty made it’s way into my home for a review.  I waited til the kids went to bed to give it a test drive.  As soon as I opened it I was addicted.  I had to constantly fight the urge to eat the banana scented substance that kept my hands busy.  I couldn’t put it down.  The whole time I was watching Dexter with the J-man I was playing with it.  Stretching it, popping it…oh yea…it was fun and it annoyed the crap out of the J-man.DSC_0016

Today I decided to share my Bloom Putty with the kids…I didn’t want to.  Lauren thought it was the coolest thing ever. She stretched it into the tiniest strands, she made it into a ball and she popped it.  Popping it is the best!DSC_0022

It was clear, she was addictedIt’s an epidemic I’m afraid…..

I don’t think there is anything I can do now but feed the obsession by getting every color and scent available.

Ok so I am almost done with my gift shopping. I still have to go get my oldest daughters BIG present. She is going to be so excited to finally have her own computer. It’s a pretty big deal.

Jeremy was the hardest to shop for. I had thought about scrapbooking about the band so far, but really just didn’t have enough time. So I decided to order one of those photo books. I just did it a few days ago and he was quite suspicious of the questions I was asking. Oh well. Well, when I hit the order button it said 2-3 weeks for delivery….say what? But I just got an email confirmation last night saying it would be ready to pick up at the local store in 2-3 days. That’s awesome! Totally made my day to find that out.

I have been working my fanny off catching up on custom orders and finally got caught up and everything mailed in time. I have also been working hard with the new graphics portion of our business. The .com has been purchased and the new site should be up soon! So exciting! As well as the band web site being worked on and it will be up very soon as well!
