february sale.

by Tiffany on February 3, 2010

I am starting the month of love with a 50% off SALE on all Fall/Winter Clothes and Shoes!!

The SALE has only been going for two days and already it has been crazy!!

So I recommend not taking too much time if there was something you had your eye on.

I also get asked a lot of I will be getting certain items back in stock that are on sale, so just incase you were wondering – if an item is on sale I will not be getting it back in stock.

Happy love month and happy shopping!!

is january over?

by Tiffany on January 31, 2010

I don’t know about anyone else but January has felt like the longest month to me since I can remember.

Every time I look at the calendar it is still January, and I actually find myself shocked as though I am totally unaware of dates.

I promise that is not the case, but for some reason it has just been really surprising me.

Well one thing that shouldn’t be surprising to you, is my love for children’s literature and if that does surprise you that really is alright, I was just trying to keep the rhythm going.

I am finally starting to put up all the children’s books that have been on the shelves of my brick and mortar bookcases for years, I just hadn’t had the time to really update all of that on my website, but now that I am fully Online – it is time to add and add and add.

I realize that with places like Amazon it is harder for me to sell these books, but I so love children’s books that I will not be deterred from doing so.

And I do sell quite a few, and that makes me happy as pie and so to all of those that venture to my Online book section you will find many new added items and many more to come.

Happy reading!

spring spring said the robin.

by Tiffany on January 22, 2010

Well my spring/summer 2010 items are slowly trickling in, and I really am so excited to see them.

Not only will new clothes and shoes be arriving, but some other new items will be coming in too.

I have a lot of ideas for this year, and can not wait to start implementing them.

I have already started with a new look for The Pajama Squid.

The boy and girl illustrations are done by Genevieve Marquis and here is where you can visit her lovely shop full of utterly delightful illustrations. I have already purchased several for my home. I really do LOVE her work! Not to mention that she is really an awesome person! And that is what I can get into, someone that is very talented but has an awesome personality to boot.

There will be some more updates to come to the “look” of The Pajama Squid.

I will also be starting a paper section on my website, so that I can feed my paper addiction and call it a business expense.

Much to do but all in good time.

Don’t forget about the 30% off SALE going on right now too!

displaced.

by Tiffany on January 15, 2010

It is amazing to me how displaced life can feel.

It doesn’t necessarily have to be your own life, but if the life of someone you love is displaced and hurting – your life doesn’t feel the same either.

I am a protector. I fiercely love those in my life, and I do not take kindly to those that are hurting them. To those that make them question their identity, and where they are in their life. To make the edges of their voice break while talking to me on the phone. I realize this is life. I realize this is simply a relationship breaking. But the heart you are breaking is a heart I have known my entire life. A heart that I hold in mine. This heart is a brilliant heart. A writers heart. A heart that deserves better.

I realize the faults of this heart too, but I am looking blindly now.

I am speaking softly now in the middle of the night.

I just wish I could fix it.

I just wish I could replace this moment with my own heart, I promise you I could endure it better. I know I am younger but I’d show you.

I’d  allow you to sleep all season and to awake to a soft light of change in a better place and a better understanding of where that heart is going to take you.

I know someday you’ll look down and barely be able to see the tips of your shoes you’ll be so high above us all. I’ll float up with a red balloon and whisper jokes to you, and we’ll both remember when you slept all season.

January giveaway!!

by Tiffany on January 12, 2010

Hello loves!

Well I have decided to do my giveaway a bit different this month – I have decided to do THREE giveaways but on Grosgrain Fabulous Blog! A super awesome blog that is pouring with creativity and gives me pangs of envy!

Repeat to self – I must get better at sewing…I must get better at sewing. Sure it has been awhile since you took that sewing class in 8′th grade and that evil girl who sat behind you and laughed at you every time you got the corners of the sweatshirt you were making stuck in the sewing machine and needed help by the teacher damaged your confidence somewhat. But she isn’t here, and though the sweatshirt came out with a sagging neck – it happens to the best of us, and really could have been seen as more of a fashion statement then a mistake. Yes…a fashion statement (enter evil laugh) but it is time to try again!

I wonder if I could take a class at the senior citizen building….seems about right.

Well go on over and leave a comment and enter to win one of THREE fabulous gifts!!

I am already thinking about Februarys giveaway so stay tuned…

january sale love.

by Tiffany on January 7, 2010

Oh it’s that time of year again where all the CLOTHES and SHOES go on sale for 30% OFF!!

I am also laughing to myself this morning as I type this because I just went through and deleted the “spam comment” section of my blog, and it is just so funny some of the comments that are written to appear as thought they are a “real” comment. I kept getting, “this gives me idea.”

Oh really, what idea might that be crazy commenter?

It is all so mysterious – that I am just dying to hear more.

Happy shopping and I hope your New Year has started off fabulous!
