MinnesotanMommy's Journal

Half my candle order from Party Lite is here!!!! I'm so excited! I wasn't expecting it this soon, so I'm really excited. I've got 9 candle holders with candles burning, then a jar candle burning, and an aroma melt going as well. I'm a candle freak. I just need my "good candle" fix. Walmart candles hold nothing next to these gems. This was my 100 pound loss reward to myself. I'm feeling excited right now, positive and upbeat. I talked to a friend who was down earlier. I hope I was able to help her feel even a little better. She's such a sweetheart that it hurt to know how sad she was. But, as we know, life can really throw curve balls and sometimes we need friends to help us see the "up side" of things again, even a little glimpse of it can help sometimes. I'd hand a tea light candle to every one of my sad friends if I could drive to see them cuz I know candles help make me happy. A candle, some tea and bath salts is what I'd give a friend who needs an uplift. Perfect to give them a relaxing time. Granted, I'm not a bath person, but I'll give the bath salts to my sister-in-law and use the tea and candle while I read a good book. Haha. I'm into the "Love Inspired" series. They're Christian romance books. I enjoy them a lot. Just finished the second one. They're in no order. Just random books I've got. I'll probably buy more at some point. I best get some paperwork done before Ethan gets home in about a half hour. Toodles and happy candle burning to you that have candles!
