Posting for a friend - great spot in Napa!

With the rain coming (!!😀❤️!!) it's a good idea to wash your car if possible - the ash is abrasive.

If your car got dusted with ash from the wildfires this week don't assume a simple run through the car wash will take care of everything. Here are a few things you can do this weekend to keep that ash from causing problems on the 'inside' of your car, as

To all our Napa friends, if you or anyone you know needs any fire related help please let me know. We have time and are volunteering to help with anything you may need. We are safe and grateful, even though our community has been hit with unbelievable devastation there is a sense of calm perseverance out there. We are going to get through this – together! ❤️

Forty Days, Forty Items Challenge. I saw this challenge posted from Salvation Army around the 40 days of Lent but it’s good advice whether you celebrate Lent or not. Every day for 40 days choose one item you no longer use, want and/or need and put in a “donate” box. At the end of the 40 days donate it to the charity of your choosing. I personally did this over a year ago and have continued with my “donate” box, adding things every week. It keeps my space clear which makes me happy and knowing somebody else will have use for the items I don’t need just seems right.

Here's a little piece of advice I gave a client awhile ago and it has worked great for her so want to share. She went from 3 closets and overflow in the garage to 2 closets! Super proud of her! http://lifehacker.com/force-yourself-to-wear-maybe-clothes-when-declutterin-1788963185?utm_campaign=socialflow_lifehacker_facebook&utm_source=lifehacker_facebook&utm_medium=socialflow

If you try to pare down your wardrobe, you’ll end up with items you want to keep, items you want to toss, and items that are somewhere in between. Before you decide on those “maybe clothes,” give them a wear.

Hi all, I’m helping a client sell some items and here are just a couple of their “yard art” pieces: The Big ol’ Rooster is the original from The Red Hen. He’s over 8’ tall (8 ¾ to be exact) and is in good condition for an old guy ($3200). The farm wheelbarrow is originally from Inglenook and is in good working condition with nice patina, a very cool piece ($325). Let me know if you have any interest and I can send more photos and/or schedule a time for you to come take a look. I hope everyone is having a great day!

Fun Changes for Errand Bee & Etc! We are still the Errand Bee you have come to know and trust but we have listened to you, our diverse (and awesome) clientele and have officially added some great services. Along with our errand service we are now helping folks declutter, downsize, organize, clear their estates and manage their moves. As usual if you have something you need that is not on our list of services just ask – anyone who knows me knows that I’m up for a challenge! If I can’t help you the chances are that I can get you in touch with someone who can. I also want to take this opportunity to say THANK YOU to all of you as without YOU none of this would be possible. You make me a happy little bee .

Hi all, I'm making a Costco run tomorrow if anyone wants in on it. Have a great day!

When people ask “what do you do?” I have a hard time explaining as I do just about anything (as long as it’s ethical and legal!) Just an example of what’s been going on in Errand Bee’s world… Helped a “downsizing” client liquidate his winery equipment and much of his home plus organized & oversaw his big move. Guest house prep, deliveries, errands, grocery shopping, prepared foods delivery and lots of Costco runs. Tis the season so have been doing vacation checks (watering, mail pickup, check on/care of animals, stocking kitchen for client’s arrival home, etc). I’ve even made guacamole for a party.

It may sound cliché but it’s true, if you love what you do then you never work a day in your life. I’m truly blessed.

The best part in all of this is that I’ve met some amazing people. I thank you all for your support whether you’re a client or not. It means the world to me.

I just want to share this great find with you all. Thrive Market has a lot of the stuff I buy at Whole Foods or Pharmaca at greatly reduced prices (they call it warehouse pricing). Note that this is a subscription service costing $59 per year but your first month is free with no obligation. I’ve signed up as I saved well over $60 on my first order so over a year it will be huge savings. If you click on this link you get 15% off of your first order. http://thrv.me/ivYnxh

Shop the best healthy, natural, non-GMO, organic, vegan, raw, Paleo, gluten-free, and non-toxic items from the top-selling brands at wholesale prices.
