We had a fun challenge this week from our Scentsy director. It was to write a story using as many scent names as possible. Here is my story!
After a grueling Friday at work, as Always, Jax decided to head to his favorite coffee shop, Mochadoodle, for a little Clarity. He stepped out of the car, right into a wad of Bubblegum. “Great! This is a perfect ending to my day”, he said sarcastically. Walking into the cafĂ©, he smiled at this favorite barista, “I’ll have a Hazelnut Latte and a Sticky Cinnamon Bun…and a Sugar Cookie for later, please.” Ready to head to his Home Sweet Home and find some Inner Peace, he left with his treats.
I need a vacation, he thought on his way home. Where should we head, the Rainforest or the Beach? Dreamily, the thought, White Sands, Ocean waves, Clean Breeze and beautiful Reggae Sunsets, sounds perfect. Back to reality…the clouds are building, looks like a Thunderstorm is rolling in with the dark clouds and Falling Leaves.
He made it home just before the rain began. When he walked in, it smelled like a Flower Shop, a medley of Lavender, Vanilla, Lilacs & Violets. “Welcome Home”, Tori said in a Flirtatious whisper. Oh no, I forgot about date night, he thought. Luckily Tobi hadn’t. She had a romantic evening planned, Berries & Bubbly to start, Sashimi Rolls with Wasabi Ginger and a Berry Tart to finish it off.
He was feeling Lucky in Love, she was Simply Irresistible! The lights were dimmed and Jax could see Tobi’s Silhouette headed to the hot tub and thought, You Go, Girl! with Radiance beaming off her. Now this is the perfect ending to my day, he thought, with visions of Skinny Dippin and silky Satin Sheets in their near future.
Later that night, snuggled in front of the Cozy Fireside with Embers glowing, sipping a Guava Nectar Daquiri with a Tropical Twist, Jax had a surprise for Tobi. He had two first class tickets to the exotic island of Kahiko Hula, a suite at the luxurious Camu Camu Resort and massages booked at the Mediterranean Spa. She was so excited, “My Wish, my dreams, they are all coming true! You are the man of my dreams!”
Two weeks later in the Enchanted Mist of the waterfalls of Kahiko Hula Island, with Silver Bells ringing, Tobi looked amazing in her Pima Cotton and lace wedding dress carrying a bouquet of Lush Gardenias and French Lavender. Wedding vows were exchanged and sealed with a passionate French Kiss. They were pronounced Mr. and Mrs. Jax Watson.
After a glorious honeymoon on the Island, Jax had one more surprise. “How would you like to spend the holidays in our Rustic Lodge in New York? We can ice skate under the Christmas Tree at Rockafeller Center, snack on Central Park Pralines and see ‘I heard it through the Grapevine’, the next big Broadway show by Hemingway? “My Dear Watson, I think that is a fabulous idea!” giggled Tobi. “It will be a Winter Wonderland!”

Happy New Year
Happy New Year! Our 2011 New Year started exactly how we would like the rest of our year to be. We had a pajama party and spent it relaxing, enjoying our friends and 4 legged kids, having fun, and drama free!!! Jax, Benni and Tobi all had matching jammy shirts as you can see…yep, I resurrected the Happy Tail Designs shop! Enjoy your new year!
It’s been awhile since I have posted on my blog, mainly because I didn’t feel like I had anything important to say. Then I realized, it doesn’t have to be important…just write! I went back and read my old posts and was very happy with myself that I have kept up with most of what I posted about previously! I am still selling Scentsy and LOVE it! One of my best friends, Jesse, is a consultant with me which makes it more fun and successful. We are looking forward to the Scentsy Spring Sprint in Dallas on February 16th. Check out my website at http://www.chrishyde.scentsy.us/ (shameless plug).
I admit, I have not been writing down my 10 blessings every day, but I really like the concept and am going to recommit to doing it. It’s still early today and I'm only on my first cup of coffee, but yesterday’s blessings: I attended a great committee meeting on education, our Scentsy business is still doing well and I have a possible basket party lined up, I received a commitment of more work to be signed off, I got off work early, I had the ability and energy to go to the gym where I was complimented on my hair, Estela ate her lima beans without complaining, we enjoyed a quite evening together and Jax is a daily blessing! Think of your 10 blessings and focus on your blessings instead of the things that aggravate you!!!
We are still working out at the gym, still being conscious of BPA’s, high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated oils, nitrates and nitrites…and yes, I do feel healthier! Losing weight is still a work in progress but at least I am still working at it!
