The Glam Domino effect...

I ordered a bunch of samples this week for my Stella & Dot biz. I am really excited to get them. When I get a Stella & Dot box, it is like getting a present, seriously. The jewels are business tools of course, but being that I am my own walking commercial, it behooves me to get glammed up to go about my daily business. So I'm sporting delicates to Mommy & Me, I'm sporting statement jewels to bible study, I'm Rocking something edgy to go meet a friend for coffee, it's awesome. The good news is, having to get "dressed" has gotten me out of my yoga pants rut. I was getting way to comfortable in yoga pants and flip flops. I always do my hair and make up, but now I have to wear a good top too, to show off the jewels. You can't wear an awesome top with sweats, so then I put on jeans, then opt for the boots over the flip flops. It is an awesome domino effect. Getting back to work has been good for me. I'm a mom yes, but I am also a woman and I need to dress like the woman I want to be. It doesn't hurt, that wearing fab jewels is also the best way to sell fab jewels, right?

The Sky is Blue

I want to thank all of you who lift my family up in prayer.  I thank all of you who give us encouragement.  I try really hard to see the cup 1/2 full, and most days I do.  I was feeling a little down last night, but today is a new day.  Blue skies remind me of how much I am loved.  Have an awesome day friends. And.....on a side note.... Go Viewpoint Patriots!!! We are in the playoffs! Wooo Hoooooo!

Believing isn't so hard

Why do I believe what I can't see?  That is a valid question. I get it from well intentioned people just trying to understand our differences I guess. I'll try to answer as best as I can. The college years especially, are a time of exploration.  We think in a less inhibited way.  We behave in a less inhibited way.  We ponder, and process, and get emotional about issues we think are important.  It is definitely an important step in the process of maturing.  I too, explored, pondered, got emotional, and was uninhibited. I remember especially being passionate about the right to a woman's choice.  I never took the idea of abortion lightly.  I held the hands of a few friends along the way, as they made that very difficult choice.  I praise God that I was never faced with that decision, I am not sure what I would have done at that stage of my life. I would like to think I would have chosen life, but I can't say for sure. I don't believe that ab...

Networking can be expensive!

I went to a cool women's networking meeting the other night. It was with an organization called Heartlink . It was at some one's house. An awesome dinner was served. Tables set, lovely hospitality, and about 20 very interesting women were there. We each got 3 minutes to introduce ourselves and tell a bit about our business's. Most of the women knew each other already. Many of the women present had business's that sell through direct marketing. Most of the big ones were represented, and a few new ones I had never heard of but found interesting. There were also women with other business's like insurance, legal services, printing, etc... It is great to meet like minded people, and I can definitely see the benefits of attending regularly. The bad part however, is it leaves you wanting to go shopping! All of a sudden, I MUST have the new mango cutter from Pampered Chef, and I am yearning to freshen up my candles, and I NEED a hole new wardrobe from CABi . ...
