Ha <br />I arrived home Sunday night and just got around to making and posting a new card. It had been a week since my last post.

He's a keeper! I live in NJ and believe me there is such a dearth of stamping stores - they have slowly all gone out of business. The closest (apart from Michaels and ACMoore) is the Ink Pad in NY city. I used to go in there, but time just doesn't allow it any more. I wait for the conventions (usually twice a year) - and sometimes Margaret is there with SNS, then I get to help out!<br /><br />That lady is a little ball of fiery energy - and to agree with the DH - it really makes a big difference! <br /><br />I have joined your site, and look forward to reading more and seeing your creations. <br /><br />Good luck with the hot weather tomorrow. I started my Christmas cards this morning amidst all the static and the glitter!! <br /><br />Shona<br />http://shonasstampingstage.blogspot.com/ Shona Erlenbornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16851773517111093203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9028799397835917329.post-39780013387000804762013-12-03T15:34:49.887-05:002013-12-03T15:34:49.887-05:00Sounds like a very nice trip !

Too bad your experience in the store was a bit lacking. Yesterday I finally made it to Santa Fe and was appalled at how an owner talked to one of her staff. I told the woman (the staff) that she should be given a medal for how calm she remained! Bah Humbug!!!<br /><br />Oh, but I did finish my dresser and dyed some clothes pins! <br /><br />Hugs,<br />Kay505whimsygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16594635228441769910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9028799397835917329.post-49088994216485881432013-12-01T16:41:47.149-05:002013-12-01T16:41:47.149-05:00So glad you enjoyed the SNS Shoppe, Mary!

Maybe one of these times that you are down here we can enjoy a stamping date. I am pretty much home-bound, but some times I can drive, and we can do something together! hugs, deDonna Ellishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16493910748228055970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9028799397835917329.post-29873740052999166202013-12-01T15:41:38.236-05:002013-12-01T15:41:38.236-05:00I think your hubby is a keeper!

Sometimes customer service is what stands between a good store and a great one. I'm glad you were able to find things you liked there.

I love that Joe goes with you and then helps pick out things he think you will love. I sure wish Dwayne would do that with me. lol Maybe one day. Some stores owners are off during the holidays and the workers aren't always as friendly, not always the case but a lot of the times. I always loved working with the public so when I worked at a deli, I treated everyone with special attention. I started getting such good comments from my boss who would come to me and tell me what people were telling him about me. It felt good to know that I made shopping for those people a good experience, which is the way it should be! Some of our business have lost sight of that They act like they are doing us a favor anymore. And I am finding with this generation that there aren't many professionals anymore. Sad. But glad that you are having a wonderful time and yes, we all have many blessings!!! I know I do!!! Now sent that 80 degree weather to here, it is 18 degrees this morning.
