$10.71

This morning I got up and started washing clothes. I then headed to the grocery store where I got food for the week. When I got back Daniel was mopping our bathroom before leaving for Cancun for meetings. So I decided to sweep the rest of the house, dusted and mopped. Then I washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen, finished 3 more batch of clothes. I scrubbed the toilets washed the sinks. Cleaned the mirrors and glass. (Not the windows that will be for another day.) Folded the garments and towels. Cleaned the front porch area and made the bed. It has taken me all day to do this an now I am very tired and still have 2 more batches of clothes to go.

Looking back on it $150 pesos or $10.71 USD is not that much money to pay someone else to do it. I'm not a snob, I'm piratical.

My Sister

I stole this idea from Melissa.
Today is my sister Heidi's birthday. Thank you for singing to me when I was sad or tired, the song you made up that went along with my little, pink, music, pull toy. "Do you remember?" Thanks for teaching me who to brush my teeth. Thank you for being a shoulder to cry on, starting from when I was a child to now. Thanks for answering every question possible from phone calls just to ask how do you spell this, or what does that mean. All the way to questions I was to embarassed to ask anyone else. You are a good women, a good listener, a good friend, and I am proud to call you my sister.
Happy Birthday

Cariloha's Soft, Cool, Green, Clean

So most of you know that I work at a store called Cariloha. It is a sister brand to Del Sol. Del Sol is such a fun store for many because it has something unique to offer. But so far Cariloha has just been a store with fine things that remind you of the island life. But now we are going to have our own catch. We are going to have all our products made out of bamboo. Our belts, our jewelry, our shoes and sun glasses, yes that right everything even our clothes will be made out of bamboo.

I am excited to sale the products. We had a shipment of bamboo shirt about 15 boxes (about the size of Xerox boxes) and we sold out in a week. People where buying 10 shirts a family. One women bought 75 shirts. We got towel in and we sold them in just a few days as well. Here is a peek at our web site just so you can see for yourself the fun Cariloha is going to have with Bamboo.

I have a shirt and it is very soft. Much softer then regular cotton. All the fun facts about bamboo are cool as well. Sorry no pictures I still can't seem to find a cord for my camera. So this blog is about my work. Just so that everyone knows that I am still alive.
