We had so much fun last weekend at the Abbey!!

It's always so much fun with these teens!! ... and can we talk about how awesome they are that they chose to do fun and positive activities with their friends on the weekend, over going out and getting into potential trouble!!? I love it!!

I wish I were more like them when I was a teen!! I probably would've chosen to do this if I had the option, though! Right?!

DM me if you want to give your teens an awesome option for a weekend activity with their friends!! I'm talking about: your kids that live in your home, your nieces and nephews, your students, the residents at your job, youth groups, student atheletes, student leaders... whoever! Every kind of teen ends up having fun with me! (Probably since I'm just an old and goofy kid at heart 🤓) I can't think of a time in the past decade of paint parties that a teen had a terrible time (impressive, I know 🤣🤣)!! I'm not trying to brag, but I've even seen teens smile and laugh! It's epic!!

DM me if you'd like to plan a paint party (oe scavenger hunt, bingo, or trivia) for your teens (or your kids , or your parents, or you!) I've got availability around the holidays, it's a great way to keep the kids safe, happy, colorful and positive!!

Tonight when I went to vote for the first time as an East Providence resident and home owner, I got an awesome surprise!!

Our voting is at one of the libraries, and as you may or may not have seen through the past several years (these started before I even met my husband, nevermind living in this city with him!), I have facilitated 5 or 6 "portable" murals that have been rotated around all 3 libraries.

I'm mad sick with allergies turned to who knows, so I look a hot mess. Hair flying everywhere, glasses on, white as a ghost and rosy checks, no makeup, gross. 💯🤣 ... and since my glasses are so strong, it's very disorienting walking around especially in the dark, so I have to really look at the ground and pay attention, I'm a clutz haha! So, I did that, grabbed the door and open it... then finally look up and the very first mural I facilitated SMACKED me in the face practically!! It says EAST PROVIDENCE in huge letters going across, the kids who painted it were so freaking proud... and I'm so freaking proud that it's hanging for all of East Providence to enjoy!

What an extra special treat to experience my first time voting up here, I love it!!

Can I just say I sweat what I do for a living?

I think we all know I'm very extra and sparkly and adhd - I can't do the same thing for work every day - and I don't. Not even close. 🤣

Today 3 people reached out to start planning parties.

1. At a thrift shop here in East Providence - we're gonna do that cool trend from last year where you paint over a thrift shop print in Halloween theme... except Christmas themed - how freakin fun is that??

2. A fundraiser to install something for the kids at Rogers, I'm not going to go more into details yet, but I will. 💯

3. Another party with one of Newports international service clubs which has been so much fun in the past!

Then yesterday I booked a trivia party in someone's home - I love that it's all totally different!

I'm truly blessed and hope I will always be able to do paint parties and other fun events forever!

That being said - tis the season!! People do tend to hit me up last second this time of year for birthday parties and holiday parties (guilty myself, too!)... I've still got some room for ya this holiday season!! Grab your party date before someone else does!!

Also! People tend to forget about January and February birthday parties, fundraisers, after school programs, and just something fun to do in the dead of winter (also guilty of this lol!)!! Grab your date before someone else does!!

Anyways, I hope you're having a beautiful Monday! I know everyone's devastated that the sun is going to set in like 3 minutes (it's 345 ahh!)... BUT!!! IN JUST 33 DAYS THE SUN IS GOING TO START SETTING LATER AND LATER AND LATER AND LATER UNTIL THE BEGINNING OF JUNE!!! So, basically what I'm saying it's pretty much almost summer already. Don't wish this season away though, enjoy it! **unless you're like me and can't handle the up and down temps causing insane allergies and being all sick 🙄🤣 if you're like me, feel better quick! It'll be very cold every day soon enough and our allergies will be gone soon lol

To conclude,here's a picture of our cute puppy. I think he can tell I don't feel good, he's such a good boy, I'm so in love. 🥹 No, he still doesn't have a name. Poor baby. Lol

The end of an era. 💜

Rich opened Holy Smokes a few minutes after I finished college. Many don't know this if you met me through Mermaid Masterpieces, but I was very very sick and going through Lyme Disease treatment, and couldn't work a "job" job, so I was doing various side hustles... then when Rich opened, after a little bit he realized he needed someone else to work sometimes and not just him 7 days a week - so I was his first employee!

I'll be forever grateful for the things he unknowingly taught me about running a business, especially how to have integrity and run things the best I know how. He also trusted me with his store when honestly, I was so sick and such a hot mess, I don't think anyone else would have. Thank you for that, Rich. You're the man.

Through the past 2 decades there's been lots of fun and happy times there, and I think we'll all hold on to those memories, always.

Thank you for the fun, and the 40+ nose piercings - I am forever proud to own the record for most times one has had the same nostril pierced by you at Holy Smokes. 🤣🤣🤣 I am beyond proud of you and love you to pieces. Keep bein awesome!!

Ps, this is why it's so important to support local business and not go corporate or online when you can support a friend, people who have been giving back to the community for decades, and our local economy. 💔

I grabbed some cash (no wallet) and ran to get some Halloween candy a little while ago... but damn!! The prices on Halloween candy is wild now?!

Anyway, I brought two bags with me to the check out that I didn't have enough for, hoping I'd get a coupon if I rang them up separately, but I did not. Wack.

So, I went to put one bag back. A man stopped me and was like what's wrong with that one?? I thought it was a great deal! I was like oh it is, I think one bag will be enough though. *lies* He was like in East Providence?! No way! You need more! I was like eh my neighborhood is quiet. He was like you should get it, I'm getting 4 bags and my neighborhood is quiet too! I was like ahhh I'll probably come back later, I need to grab more money out of my car *again, lies, I didn't have any other cash or cards with me but at this point I was embarrassed 🤦🏼‍♀️ why? I don't know lol* this man pulls out cash and was like how much do you need?! I was like nooo I couldn't, thank you so much though! He was like yes you can, it's ok, is $2 enough? (Doing math in my head quick I said ...yeees..?) He hands it to me and I didn't know what to say, but are you sure, are you serious, thank you so much! Then he's like yes, take it, get the kids candy! Told me about his 8 grandkids and that he coaches softball then he gave me his business card, and I'll tell you what, no offense, but I can see through politicians - this man was just being good - I look at the card, and he's on the city counsel! I need to do my due diligence, but I think someone just earned my vote - that was him being a good human to another human for no reason other than being kind, and it was so darn nice and made my day! You know I absolutely love hearing of someone who does a good deed - and that's the kind of person I want repping my city. 💯

Thank you so much, Frank!

Have Happy Halloween everyone, have a great time tonight, be safe, be good, and be spooky!

That thing happened again where one kid came up to show me their painting, and then another, and then another, so I invited all the kids to come up so I can show everyone their paintings if they wanted - their smiles said it all, they were so proud, and I love it!!

This is my fav little neighbors painting - how awesome is this?! Woohoo!!
