Un- BEE- weaveable
July 28, 2013
So my intentions today were this...Grocery shopping and Bath and Body Works shopping. I know that tomorrow was suppose to be a Pumpkin Preview so there was to be a floorset tonight so if I went to a store that may start early I could see some new.
Ya sure.
I head out for Chinese for lunch, and I got a call telling me that the floor set for tomorrow was cancelled and there would be only a release of the Sweet and Sexy items... No pumpkins.
Drats.
So I change my plans on where to go and head in a different direction. There is a store a few hours away so I try there to see what is new. I was greeted by a lovely SA who asked me what I wanted. I responded with..... Pumpkins.
She said, sorry we don't have any yet but we have a table out front with the summer chill line on sale. I thanked her and said no I was interested in the fall things now and she said..."next month." "Next month?", I quizzed her. You mean tomorrow.... you have a floorset tonight for a preview of pumpkin things. "No we don't." "So your not putting anything pumpkin out?" "No."
"So when is the new coming out?" I asked. Next month she said. Hmm. I said to her, looking around the table I was standing by...."so there is nothing pumpkin huh.... So what is that? (pointing at the pumpkins and fall sleeves her co-worker was putting out. Well, they are pumpkins but we are pushing the limits doing that.
For REAL? OMG.....
Workers so scared to admit that there is a well KNOWN floorset for a preview sale everyone was talking about a few weeks ago. So I grabbed two and told her I better get these before you change your mind. Her manager walked by.....pulled out the paper signage as these new things are being put out as Fall Fresh Picked including that huge bubble glass luminary and said to the girl stacking the metal sleeves.... I have all of your signage ready for tonights set.
UM....duah.
This lockdown of general commonsense answers to our questions B&BW is making your SA's look like they don't know what's going on in their own stores and is turning them into a bunch of fibbers. And for seasoned shoppers and I should add faithful shoppers of your brand...it makes us frustrated. No wonder people read blogs to find information.
SO I take my sleeves and pumpkins and I am happily heading home after a quick trip for groceries.
Unbeknownst to me while sitting in the car waiting to get gas....a hornet bit me in the right side of my neck. Great, just what I needed... a hickey from a hornet.
Pain......OMG..... incredible and still as I am sitting here trying to get this typed it is so painful. I did get a nice ride to the hospital where I got to witness the horrors of life and death and grieving....
Puts your whole bug bite into perspective....definitely...but it still hurts like a son of a gun. Thankfully...no allergic reactions other than I had swelling from my neck into my chest and around my ear and neck....intense pain that I will have for a few days and general yucky feeling....according to the doctor who herself walked in to check me out with a large hornet bite on her arm. She was bit at 1pm getting out of her car and couldn't take the Benadryl yet as she has to work. She said she is on 600mg of Motrin....and advised me to do the same. She also said to try to being stung a second time as its much worse. The security guard who knows my husband came over and told us that earlier today a gentleman working outside was bitten 38 times by hornets and was admitted.
I didn't get any meds at all.....only ice.....and after waiting through some poor persons code...they got to me and I left to go to the drug store.
With all of my beautiful flower beds and gardening....it took some little lost bee to fly into my hair while sitting in the car to ruin my Sunday.
At least....I found a few pumpkins for my troubles. ;)
As for the floor sets and what is coming out or not....I am as lost as anyone. Things change so fast overnight....and all I can say is do what I do....call your store and see if they are putting out pumpkins.
And now I am going back to my cozy bed to watch tv and ice my un- bee- weavable neck.
Hugs, Tessie

Fall Catalog List with Halloween with photos added
July 28, 2013
Here is a repost of yesterdays list of new-ness now with the photos included. Most of this I already knew about and I was compiling my list to journal the new and upcoming.....but there were some new to me things I didn't know about, such as what kind of house there was going to be for Halloween. Harry Slatkin made mention to it the other day and I was soooo curious I couldn't wait until someone said something. But as we all know the stores are on lock down with "Don't ask don't tell.... haha...so I don't want to bug them too much.
When these were sent to me it was a huge surprise but it was stated that I could write out descriptions of the items to get other fragrance fans excited about what is coming out. This morning I found another comment email telling me to post the photos if I wanted.
I somehow imagine my anonymous poster as riding a white horse and is wearing a mask as they scour the country looking for sneak peeks of new and fabulous.
Whoever you are.... thank you so much for sharing. I do appreciate it. Now I am going to go make my list for this weeks Pumpkin Preview and hopefully find something new at a B&BW store this week!
Happy shopping....

Full of promise
July 27th, 2013
Today so far has been one of those days where you can't seem to put your finger on what it feels like... good or bad you just know it feels different or off. I did have some highlights to my day and some lows but regardless of all of the things in between, it has been okay.
Yesterday, as it usually is on that day... was a bit of a struggle for me but I got through the day...put flowers on my daughters grave and moved forward. Perhaps some of it was still hanging over me as I started my day today but I didn't want to let that stop me from doing my routine. And as if the heavens knew, some affirmations were shared with us via a dear friend and that helped me.
And I only wrote those paragraphs above to remind those who have given me over 100,000+ views for only a few months this page has been up and going and 47,000 views on my dot com page..THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH...big hugs...I wrote that because there is soooo much more going on in my life, as is the case for everyone....and while I may be here sharing all of the things I know about Bath and Body Works and other things...sometimes I do so with aching heart pieces.
I write this blog and I do share it out of love....to connect with those who also share the same obsessions...passions and love of things I do. And it keeps me out of trouble..... Most days. ;)
Okay on with the day.....a day full of promise
Yesterday I saw on the Victorias Secret site that they are again offering three more new scents, their Sugared Florals Collections and those bottles are sooo pretty and girly and sexy.
Candied Violet, Sugared Lilac and Frosted Magnolia. Now my first thought was to order these and get them without smelling these first. But because I was going to be at a mall today I thought ... let me smell them first.
The store had a sign out today...a weekend special.... buy two get one free on all beauty products and the manager offered me a chance to smell and BUY any I wanted today. They officially launch on Tuesday July 30th. She brought them out and began spraying those little paper strips....which does me no good as I need to smell them on me. They are sweet. Nice... but, hmmm sweet and florally a bit. Of course since they are flower names...
She checked and the price on the mists were $14.00 so for 28.00 I could have three products. I said to her... wait, really? That's not a great deal since they are usually 5 for $30.00 or better. She shook her head and said yes but for the average person who doesn't shop there often she said they wouldn't know.
I told her I would be back Tuesday.
Today QVC did have its Super Saturday two hour special and as I do for all great causes... I shopped and supported the Ovarian Cancer research cause and I will post what I purchased when it all arrives.
Now Bath and Body Works.....
I did smell the two new sweet and sexy scents coming and they are pretty good. The sweet... I think it was the sweet....smells exactly like Forever Red....softer. A weaker version of it.
Let's see what else.....oh yes, currently out that I got yesterday.... Pocketbac holders Haunted House and Pumpkin....Orange fox and a purple hedgehog..... what else is suppose to be out is a Spider glow in the dark and a woodchuck??? I think it was a woodchuck....Okay its some furry woodland critter to go along with our squirrel and hedgehog. Oh speaking of.... I didn't notice my squirrel lit up.... His marshmallow lights.
Too cute.
I am going to write a letter.... a Dear Santa letter of what I want for fall..... haha.... do you think he will stop over my roof and slide down my chimney with a sack full of ....oh I dunno.... HALLOWEEN now?
I am going to need a bigger cabinet to hold all of the fall....and a bigger wallet. They went all out for these upcoming Fall items....and I will get to those in a bit. In case you didn't notice, the comments sections are open in both my BlogSpot blog as well as my Life inside the Page dot com blog....and when I got home today someone left me a nice surprise over at the dot com.....and all I can say is OMG. more on that later.
Tomorrow night is a floorset...not a big one and not a complete Fall set as this should be the Pumpkin Preview Event we have been hearing about...so Monday we should be able to get some Pumpkin love.
Finally...
Today so far has been one of those days where you can't seem to put your finger on what it feels like... good or bad you just know it feels different or off. I did have some highlights to my day and some lows but regardless of all of the things in between, it has been okay.

Perhaps some of it was still hanging over me as I started my day today but I didn't want to let that stop me from doing my routine. And as if the heavens knew, some affirmations were shared with us via a dear friend and that helped me.
And I only wrote those paragraphs above to remind those who have given me over 100,000+ views for only a few months this page has been up and going and 47,000 views on my dot com page..THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH...big hugs...I wrote that because there is soooo much more going on in my life, as is the case for everyone....and while I may be here sharing all of the things I know about Bath and Body Works and other things...sometimes I do so with aching heart pieces.
I write this blog and I do share it out of love....to connect with those who also share the same obsessions...passions and love of things I do. And it keeps me out of trouble..... Most days. ;)
Okay on with the day.....a day full of promise
Yesterday I saw on the Victorias Secret site that they are again offering three more new scents, their Sugared Florals Collections and those bottles are sooo pretty and girly and sexy.
Candied Violet, Sugared Lilac and Frosted Magnolia. Now my first thought was to order these and get them without smelling these first. But because I was going to be at a mall today I thought ... let me smell them first.
The store had a sign out today...a weekend special.... buy two get one free on all beauty products and the manager offered me a chance to smell and BUY any I wanted today. They officially launch on Tuesday July 30th. She brought them out and began spraying those little paper strips....which does me no good as I need to smell them on me. They are sweet. Nice... but, hmmm sweet and florally a bit. Of course since they are flower names...
She checked and the price on the mists were $14.00 so for 28.00 I could have three products. I said to her... wait, really? That's not a great deal since they are usually 5 for $30.00 or better. She shook her head and said yes but for the average person who doesn't shop there often she said they wouldn't know.
I told her I would be back Tuesday.
Today QVC did have its Super Saturday two hour special and as I do for all great causes... I shopped and supported the Ovarian Cancer research cause and I will post what I purchased when it all arrives.
Now Bath and Body Works.....
I did smell the two new sweet and sexy scents coming and they are pretty good. The sweet... I think it was the sweet....smells exactly like Forever Red....softer. A weaker version of it.
Let's see what else.....oh yes, currently out that I got yesterday.... Pocketbac holders Haunted House and Pumpkin....Orange fox and a purple hedgehog..... what else is suppose to be out is a Spider glow in the dark and a woodchuck??? I think it was a woodchuck....Okay its some furry woodland critter to go along with our squirrel and hedgehog. Oh speaking of.... I didn't notice my squirrel lit up.... His marshmallow lights.
Too cute.
I am going to write a letter.... a Dear Santa letter of what I want for fall..... haha.... do you think he will stop over my roof and slide down my chimney with a sack full of ....oh I dunno.... HALLOWEEN now?
I am going to need a bigger cabinet to hold all of the fall....and a bigger wallet. They went all out for these upcoming Fall items....and I will get to those in a bit. In case you didn't notice, the comments sections are open in both my BlogSpot blog as well as my Life inside the Page dot com blog....and when I got home today someone left me a nice surprise over at the dot com.....and all I can say is OMG. more on that later.
Tomorrow night is a floorset...not a big one and not a complete Fall set as this should be the Pumpkin Preview Event we have been hearing about...so Monday we should be able to get some Pumpkin love.
Finally...
