Erincondren.com May Be the HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH! - Placemat Review and Promo Code!!!

Dear Erin Condren, I love you.  I love your company.  I love your AWESOME blue glasses.  I love your fun Instagram feed.  I love your colorful products.  I may go broke because of you, but I think your website just may be the HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH! - No offense Disney.  I really love you guys too.  But there's a WHOLE LOTTA HAPPY at erincondren.com!!!  ;)

Life Planner from erincondren.com
Nail polish from julep.com

OK.  I'm done.  I just had to gush for a moment.  If you've been reading my blog for a while (or keeping up with me on Facebook, Twitter, or Pinterest) then you know my love for all things Erin Condren.  I've already reviewed their Life Planner and Address book - both of which are AWESOME, by the way - and I have several other amazing products just waiting to be reviewed!  I've just been trying to space them out so as not to overwhelm you all!  Haha!  But today I received one of their newest products and I just COULDN'T WAIT to review it!!! - The new EC Placemats!!!

They have some really great choices for placemats on their site!  There are personalized placemats, placemats you can color, and the ones that I chose - the "You Are Special" placemats!  I love these!  For $28, you get a set of 25 placemats (its like a notebook where you tear one off).  The best part is the personalization rectangle at the bottom right!  You can write a little note to whoever you are celebrating!

So, where could you use these placemats?  Well, the possibilities are ENDLESS, but here are a few ideas:
1.) Birthdays - celebrate your spouse's birthday or your child's birthday by serving their meal on top of this cute mat!  Write a note that says how much you love them!
2.) Birthday Party, Wedding Shower, Baby Shower - use these to personalize each child or adult's place at the table with their name!
3.) Family Reunion, Holiday Dinner - Use these for reunions, Easter, Thanksgiving or Christmas dinners!  Write each person's name on theirs!  Or for Thanksgiving, write one thing you love about/are thankful for for each person!
4.) Special Achievements - Dance recital, winning the big game, graduation, job promotion, good report card, or just because!  Celebrate a loved one by giving them the "You Are Special" mat and writing something awesome on it!


And look at the awesome box they come in!  Erincondren.com always sends their packages in style!!!

If you are new to erincondren.com, you can use my referral link to sign up and you'll get an email with a $10 off promo code to use on your first order!!!  WOOHOO!!!!

How To Destroy Your Husband - Step 2

Last month I started a series called "How To Destroy Your Husband."  (You can check out step 1 of this series HERE.)  Step 1 was on criticizing your husband in public.  Step 2 is similar - humiliating your husband in public. 
My husband complains that I “overshare” on Facebook. Clearly, his hemorrhoids are just making him cranky.

The picture above is an attempt to start things off with a little humor, but humiliating our husbands publicly is serious business.  Many women would never "disrespect" their husband in public, but they are quick to tell a "hilarious" story - where their husband comes off looking stupid or inept.  Its so easy to do - especially if we are more concerned with getting a laugh (or "likes" on Facebook) than we are with our husband's feelings.  And its so much easier these days - with the invention of Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.  Often, we post things instantly - without thinking. 

Citrus Lane March 2014 Boxes Review Plus 50% Off Your First Box!!!

Yay!!!  Our March Citrus Lane boxes arrived 2 days ago!  And I realized that we have been with Citrus Lane for exactly 2 years!  (March of 2012 was our very first box!)  I can't believe its been that long!  And we've received some fabulous products and lots of joy!  My oldest knows when her box arrives and what it looks like now, so she wants to open it immediately.  Its so much fun when the mail lady comes and she says, "Is that my box!?!"  This month's boxes were pretty awesome!
