Hi folks, this is just a quick quick note.

I’m putting together some Business Binders for the DSO Girls, and I thought I would put the offer out there to my Digiscrap Designing friends.

This is NOT a digital download.  Actual binders will be shipped to those who order.

Basically, my business binder is a tool that will help organize your business in every aspect from planning products, creating them, tracking their sales, managing deadlines, planning promotions, tracking income and expenses, tax prep *You’ll be COMPLETELY READY come tax time! Just pop out a section and GO!* , and MORE.   The binder won’t help you DESIGN, but it will help you manage just about every other part of the business. 

The cost of the binder is $45.  This does NOT include shipping.  Shipping will be billed separately and is based on your location.  I will consult with the post office to get the best rate possible for you, which I believe will be MEDIA MAIL for those in the US.  To expedite shipping you can request flat rate which will be $10.80 (USA), but I think that is at least DOUBLE what media mail will cost.

I do not have a photo of a completed binder, I am in the process of putting them together at this time.  They will not be decorated, I’ll leave that up to the new owners.    What they will be is either a 1” 3-ring binder or a 2” 3-ring binder, stuffed with stuff to help you run the business (Over 100 pages of charts, tips, ledgers, and more!).  

I will also provide either in seminar setting or one-on-one in Skype – a “How to use this binder” class.  At NO additional charge to those that purchase the binder.   We’ll go over each section in detail, and discuss how to use each section.

Additionally those who purchase this first batch of binders (Purchases from the month of FEBRUARY 2010 only!)  will receive free supplements thru Nov 2010, of anything I decide to add between now and the 2011 release. 

Please note: This binder is for a single user.  Copying and redistributing (online or otherwise) is STRICTLY PROHIBITED!

If you would like to order a binder, please click the BUY NOW BUTTON.  Please note I am purchasing supplies to make the binders as they are ordered, so please allow 2 weeks for assembly and shipment of your binder.

Here are some quick shots of partially assembled binders, I’ll add more pics when I get them completely assembled.  Who knew hole punching would be such a PAIN!  lol!!!!!

PS:
If you try to order and it says “Sold out” just email me.  I have it set to stop after a certain amount, as each batch of supplies will make X number of binders.  I’ll reset it so you can order, it just means I need to order more supplies.  

PSS:
If you have think you may want one, but are unsure and have questions please don’t hesitate to email me!

LOL!  How’s that for a blog post title!  heheh!  Just some pics, stories, and a quick request today.  I’m actually running late late.  School was on a one hour delay and it seems to have thrown my entire day outta whack.

a naughty boy

Do you have pet rules in your house?  We do here.  As in, NO PETS on the furniture.  Dog hair drives me insane!  Anyway…

So I climbed up on Bubs bed, to just chill and chat with my boy child while he played on his computer.  It definitely seems if I’m going to have ANY time with him at all, it’s going to have to be me going to talk to him.  Not vice versa. LOL! 

Anway, so there we are hanging out and he’s telling/showing me all about this fighting/fantasy game thingy he plays online when POP…(picture a meerkat popping up outta the desert.  LOL!) there was a pug in my face!

After about 10 minutes of giggling and me saying  ‘Get down Gump’…  I finally caved and sent Sis for my camera…

Here are some pics… enjoy.

Well hello there!

I say: “You know your not supposed to be up  here, right?”

he thinks: “yea, I know, but you dont look mad yet”

he thinks: “hey, that looks like it would taste yummy” lick lick

I say :  “OMG!  NOT MY CAMERA STOP!!!!!  Now get DOWN!”

he thinks: “Maybe if I play dead she will let me stay”

"is it working?”

I say :  “You’re not THAT tired Gump, now GET DOWN”

he thinks: “dammit.”  “Dang it”

he thinks:  “Rules Suck.”
LOL!

Don’t he look like CHEECH from Cheech and Chong?  LOL 

my happy girl

My Sis is one crafty child.

Here is her first “collage” style scrapbook page.  Its still in construction.  Im very proud of her.  This is designed and created 100% by HER.

This is an illustration for a book she is working on about a cat who is a teacher…

Did I mention crafty and imaginative?
She loves to create!

So much so that after hoarding her money for MONTHS, she finally decided to spend it all on… CRAFTING STUFF!  I mean, I buy her crayons, construction paper, and the like… but somethings, the more expensive things, she doesn’t get to use often.  So, she decided an order to Joann’s would be a great way to spend her money.

She was flopping around on the couch, whining and moaning, wishing her order would arrive when – low and behold there was a thud at the door.  It was UPS tossing her box at the door.  She ran and opened it as quick as she could!

Her very own, GROWN UP, crafting supplies.
Picked out and purchased with her very own MONEY.

She is…
a big girl now.

What did she pick?

Well, some TIM HOLTZ of course!  This child loves him, loves his videos, loves his pictures on his blog!  As in “Mommy, did you look yet?  Tim has a new video today!”  “Mommy, did you see?  Tim has a new tag today! *squeal squeal*”  LOL!  Yep, Momma’s girl!

Her very own STAMPS!!!!!!!!!!!

and REAL cardstock!  No more construction paper cards!!!  woohoo!

And stamp cleaner of her VERY OWN!

You will have to stay tuned people, because I am SURE there are many “child craft projects” in this blogs future!  Although, she is BEGGING for her own blog.  So we’ll see!

LOL!

and lastly  a request…

I am needing/wanting some new recipes.  Preferably ones that do NOT contain meat (or mushrooms, Im allergic!).  My kids are so dang picky and I have to tell you.  As a grown up one can only stomach so many burgers and so much pizza…  So what I am asking is…  post a great family friendly recipe on YOUR BLOG.  Then come on back here and add your blog link to this linky thingy mabob.  Myself, AND my children, will be eternally grateful!

ok people…
Im off to run errands, and try to make up that missing hour!  OY!
><

BLUCK!  Nothing like sitting down to type you guys “a letter” and accidently sucking down a pop that’s been sitting here for 2 days. *GAG*…  see this is why I like coffee.  There is never leftovers to accidently choke on the next day.  NEVER!

Anyway,

This has been kind of a busy/crazy/unreal week in the Cates household.

Our sliding glass doors into the retreat got busted, the water heater – which is NEW I might add – keeps shutting itself off, and the hubs has been on a 15 day stretch for work so its been a “non-minding” free-for-all around here…

Then I got a visit from the cable company.  Apparently all my computers were causing a drain on the grid and affecting the neighbors internet speeds. LOL… OOPSY!  Well, my internet is going to be crap now until they come back and install some amp thingy on my modem because they had to throttle me outside so the neighbors could get some flowage.  Who knew 8 pc, 5 TVs, and 2 laptops would affect everyone on my block?  I sure didn’t!  hehehe.  I’m so naughty!

AND I realized just how much my hair is falling out now.  This CANT be normal.  This is from ONE brushing.  What’s up with that?! 

ON THE FLIP

There have been a few good things though.

Bub got his Junior Ring…

isn’t it gorgeous?

and then I got creative….
