Yeah! It’s Wednesday!

I thought today I would tell you about a typical day in my life… My alarm goes off at 5:45am. I get up and get ready to drive my schoolbus route. I have a quick cup of coffee if I am lucky and get the kids up so they can get their chores done and get ready for school. I drive my route and get back home about 8am. Time to get laundry going and finish up any dishes that weren’t washed and put away. I get Miranda some breakfast and turn the cartoons on for her, and maybe get some breakfast myself if I am hungry. Then it is to the computer to check my email and see if anything needs my attention at TSG. I mentioned before that I am the Forum Administrator and Store Manager. My job as the Forum Administrator involves checking the forums everyday. I delete any spam msgs that get posted, I ban members if need be. I answer any questions that new or old members might have. I add new forums when we need them. I also take care of wishing our members a happy birthday on their special day as well as sending them a small gift from TSG. I keep the forum threads cleaned up and running smoothly.

As the Store Manager my job is to put all the kits that our wonderful Designers make into the store twice a week, as well as answer any questions a member may have with their order, etc. I pass out the promotional links, and I genuinely love interacting with all our members. When our designers have a new kit to put into the store they fill out a Submission form that goes to me. I add the html coding and proofread the descriptions. When I have all that done and ready I actually link all the zips and previews with the kit and put it into the store. I activate the links and previews and send a list of all the kits to Robin and Cheryl. Then Robin does the store newsletter that goes out twice a week. Everything here at TSG is done as a Team. We all have our individual jobs, but each one is connected to the other in some way, and all are needed to keep TSG site working smoothly.

I try to do all of this during the day and before I have to leave to drive my afternoon route. Once I get home from that it is time to check on kids, get supper ready and if I am lucky relax before bedtime. As soon as it gets dark baby wants to crawl in our bed with hubby and I and watch a movie. The next day I get up and do it all again :)
A recap of our challenge for this week… I am supplying a stickit made from the beautiful Kit, “Maryann”, by Linda Cumberland, which you can find in the store HERE. Your challenge is to download the stickit, make a LO and post it in TSG Blog Gallery. Everyone who does so is entered into a drawing for a chance to win the December Mega Kit. You can get the stickit HERE (this is the same stickit that I have posted twice before) Make a LO, post it in TSG Blog Gallery and be entered into the drawing. The drawing will take place Saturday and I will post the winner. And now for bearing with me and reading this entire post, Here is a gift (Sorry, this link has expired).. Enjoy your Wednesday!

It's really nice to know what you Really do behind TSG. You have been so awesome behind the scenes. All the TSG Admin. I didn't know you proofread the kit descriptions....Dyanna, instead of proofreading mine... I'll just leave it blank and you write it for me.... I don't like writing those things. You must laugh at my very simple, boring descriptions...hehe.. I do :)
