hey lady!

i may some day in the future have a party for you, but we'll have to look at that later.

however, i am a very good bug-finder, meaning once you think your website is running, i'm very good at finding any bugs and let you (or your webmaster) know about them. i'm also happy to do editing/proofreading for you, etc. just let me know. if i can do it from home, i'm happy to help you however i can. oh, and i'd love to wear your beautiful t-shirt. do you have it in an orange 2x?

i love you

Mommy Mere Pete said...

I can wear the tee-shirt ~ got it in red L?? I have a baby to volunteer to wear a onesie ~ got any in pink 3 - 6 months?? Would love to help how I can with three kids during the week ~ let me know!!

We love you!!

Kelly Ann Taylor said...

Anne-Marie said...

You're quite funny. I read much of that post laughing. I can definitely identify with the dirty kitchen part of things =)

BethC said...

I want some little teacher gifts.
I'm thinking about 5 - 10 candles.

Yes, I would like to read your copy of MM. Have u seen/read any of the "millionaire next door" series? Sounds like they may be similar.
If you have some time Saturday or next Wednesday for me to see the products/gifts; I'll call you.

Kelly Ann Taylor said...

anne marie,
i am now exposed. going public is such a vulnerable thing.....
probably better not to link this vulnerability with my friends to professional website....
thoughts?

Kelly Ann Taylor said...

beth,
what sized candles for teachers?
i have 10 oz, and 16 oz.

call me, i am usually in my kitchen~!

meredith came over yesterday and i was so embarrassed. i henceforth spent the next 3 hours cleaning my kitchen....

why didn't she come later?

yes, you can come over but call first.

terri ramirez is having a party for me at her house next saturday morning at approx. 11 am or so.

check in later for more details!

Mommy Mere Pete said...

That makes me sad that you were embarrassed ~ I didn't notice HONESTLY!!! I'm not one for a pristine clean house ~ makes it look like its not lived in. I always say its a place where people live ~ clean to be healthy is good of corse!!

My Rachie calmed down on the drive back after about 3 minutes in the car ~ the lavendar worked!! And she smelled good too!!! Thank you so much for the dress!!! I love it!! Took picts of her in it this morning and she looked amazing!!! She will wear it tomorrow for you to see!!!

Well, gotta go ~ Christmas gifts to make and baby sleeping ~ now's my chance!!

Love you!!

BethC said...

Like my sweet and kind mama stanley would say
"I didn't come to see your house; I came to see you"

the smaller (10oz) candles for teacher gifts (each with a cassia brochure and a business card)
FREE Advertisement!
Can you give me a price for
5 or 10 or 12 candles

Kelly Ann Taylor said...

hi beth,
i woke up worrying early this morning. 10 oz. candles would be
regularly 13.99 each. but i would give you a good deal. i have alot of christmas flavors, what were you thinking? i can drop a brochure by your house today if you want (if I can figure out how to get there....i always forget)
let me know what your budget is and i will try to accomodate that.
professional courtesy, shall we say.....!

Mommy Mere Pete said...

I think life is messy ~ at least for me!! I love and treasure you!!!

BethC said...

thsnks for the brochure. I'll call ya tomorrow after school.
