Updates...May 21, 2008


I should be used to going a mile a minute...but I still shock myself from time to time.
This trip to Nigeria & London is a good example of that.

Let's see what I can accomplish in 14 days if I don't sleep!!!
I want to attend one of my best friends wedding...
I want to see my new little niece...
I want to see my in-laws...
I want to do the interviews lined up for me...courtesy of the lovely ladies at Bobby Taylor Consulting.
I want to see my clients, delivering items they have already paid for.
Trying to also get new ones...
I want to see my dad...
Shop for LJ in London...gotta get those exclusive sneakers and tees!!
Go to Abeokuta and Akure too...
Also try to hang out with my friends...yikes!!!!

All this in 14 days...

Stay tuned to see how well I did.
Trust me a lot got done...but a lot didn't get done too!! The picture above is of me , trying my HARDEST to figure out my schedule!!!

More to come...

Finishing up the order...Chief 1

Just getting back from one of my jaunts to one of my favorite showrooms. Sigh...it was HAAAAARD not getting something... oh well, here comes my self control kicking in as usual!!

Lets call him Chief 1 (as there are several chiefs ...) will be VERY happy, both bags will make the ladies VERY hapy. I know how much I love bags and I would carry them both...

I was already tired from working all day, but I know I also have something tomorrow, so I really didn't have a choice, but to head there today!! Chief 1's associate leaves on Saturday and it would save them the costs if I could hand it to this guy instead of using my DHL account. My girl at the showroom , literally stayed late to show me the bags she had for sale...

I didn't get there until about 6:45pm. They are located in midtown and I am in the financial district, so it took far longer than i thought it would to get there. She had left two messages on my blackberry , by the time i got out of the train station... Urgh!

Anyway, as anyone who has been in a showroom knows...everything is laid out to perfection. Whatever they had that might suit my purposes were laid out BEAUTIFULLY!! I won't bore you with the details , but I got both of the designer bags for far less than i expected to. I chose a beautiful yellow one for the wife and a wine one for the "other". Seems like chief 1 will get something after all.


Jeez...


Yippee, LondonG (male client living in London-LOVES designer gear with a passion) left me a message about some shopping he needs to do... YAY!! Its too late to call him back tonight, because of the time difference...but first thng tomorrow , its on. I already know what to get him, something I saw tonight in the showroom. Hmmm wonder if he still wants that messenger bag we were talking about before...
