The World According to Leslie

It's crazy to think that a week from today is the last day of March!  How is that possible?! And yes, I know I say that every month!  (Is it just me or is time really going by faster!?) Now, a week from tomorrow is Easter! I love Easter.  It is my 2nd favorite holiday....Christmas is my first! I love to see the kids dressed in their Easter outfits. I love to see all the pictures in my Facebook feed of all the Spring and Easter pics of kids! We don't have anything special planned. We will go to church. We will go to Mom and Dad's to eat with the family. Other than that, Easter is a laid back holiday for us! What do you have planned for Easter this year? 

We are home.  We got in yesterday evening, around 6:30, I guess. First stop?  My parents' house.  Whether they are with us or not, we always stop there FIRST when we get back into town. I used my Fitbit the entire weekend.  I walked over a mile every day!  LOVE IT! On the way up, it was uneventful. Not much traffic. Great weather. We got there.  We definitely sent pics of lots of stuff to my mom and sister during the trip. Although it's a little blurry, that was the first sighting of the mountains that we had on the way up! While we were there, we had to go to Krispy Kreme.  We went on 3/17 while they had GREEN doughnuts.  We got to watch them make them.  It was AWESOME!  (I did a live video of some doughnuts coming through.  Go check it out on my Facebook page.) They look a little weird, but they tasted like HOT, melty Krispy Kreme doughnuts!  (Sorry if you missed them on St. Patrick's Day!) ...

I have been waiting for this day for what seems like forever! Today is GOING TO PIGEON FORGE DAY! It's also Pancake Day at the Boys' and Girls' Club in Cabarrus County.  MAYBE I'll get to go by there before we leave, but it's always PACKED! Today checks off one of my 2018 goals!!  I'm so excited! I will post pics and probably do some live Facebook videos while we are there.  I love Pigeon Forge!  (Have I said that before!?) The sad part is that I couldn't convince my parents to go.  So.... I'm going to work on making that happen this summer.... or at Christmas.... or both! :) What amazing things are you doing today???

Chasity, AKA "The Princess", and I have started a Paparazzi business. She's too young to have it herself, and I am old enough. So, we are partners....until she's old enough to get her own consultant number! We have done ONE Facebook live show.  We still have a lot to learn. Lighting.  Jewelry placement.  Getting viewers.... etc. (It's a learning process!) We have one Bling Basket out and about at the moment, and we are getting ready to set up our first Facebook party. It is actually fun working with her! We are learning about working together and being partners.  She helps in picking out inventory and in planning shows. We were supposed to go LIVE last night. We didn't get to.... we didn't get home in time. We were supposed to go LIVE tonight instead.... I just got called into work. I don't get off untl 11pm. That might be a little late for most of my peeps!  So.... here's the challenge... we have to find time to do one Facebook li...

I can't believe that it's March 1st already!  I say this all the time, but HOW does time go by so quickly? Way back in January, I wrote out my goals for the year.  You can read them here . At the end of January, I wrote how I was progressing on those goals.  You can read that here . Now that February has ended already, (again, HOW?!), I can update how my goals are going now. 1. Go ice skating       I am hoping to do this in Ober Gatlinburg in March.  :) If not, I'll have to find somewhere to do it.  There is an open-air one at Concord Mills Mall at Christmas time. 2. Enter a bowling tournament       The tournament that Tony and I were supposed to enter...well... we didn't get entered.  That's a good thing. We would have been out the money.  I was very sick that weekend and couldn't have bowled anyways.  There WILL be another tournament, and I will find a way to enter. 3. Go Horse...
