Received lots of inventory today and I have been trying to sort it and out and figure what pieces i will use for my next show. Taking the business on the road Saturday, going to be facing new faces that i haven't seen before. Will I be nervous? I don't think so! I really enjoy this job! I will work on my display tomorrow night, I have so many new pieces to display I need to figure out what I will be taking to the show on Saturday. Really hope this is a big show and that I get more bookings, I want to get my business going strong.

another rainy day, I got my second party order placed and it will arrive tomorrow. I can't believe how fast stuff is getting here. Third party on Saturday and I am pumped, I want a record breaking show. Got lots of great ideas for the show at New Hope and Watonga, my spouse is showing some excitement too. I really want to prove mostly to myself that I can make a business work and that I can make it grow in Oklahoma. If I could only get a few recruits, we could cover the whole state!

Tune in for my first National All Call, wasn't quite what I expected, lots of announcements about achievements and not much information about the changes getting ready to happen when the fall book comes out. I am second in sales on my team and I am proud of that. My first order has been shipped, I am excited to see all the new stuff. I placed my second order by myself and screwed it up so I have to call the company today to get it fixed. Mistakes are the just another way to learn the biz so hopefully I can get it fixed so my hostess gets the credits she deserves for the party. Party on Saturday is getting bigger and I can't wait, new crowd of people that I don't know so I will get to test my nerves.

Closing the second party today, and have a third booked for the weekend. Did a lot of networking this past weekend and things look promising in the future. I have learned that everyone I speak to could be a possible lead and that I need to keep that in mind. You only have one chance to make a first impression and I need to make sure my first are worthwhile.

Hope everyone is enjoying their day and making it great!

Well I now have party number 2 finished and it was a little disappointing after the high I got from the first party. My mentor said I did fine, and that I just need to keep getting my name out there and it will kick off and I will be really busy. I took a big step yesterday and bravely went and got my ears pierced, I am 44 and had never done that. Now I want them to get healed so I can change to some of the new pretty pieces that I sell and I want to wear those! I booked a few parties yesterday, still need more for this month and it is discouraging. I so want this business to kick off and run. I know I just need to be patience and keep throwing my name out there and something will come along. I am learning more and more about this business each day.

Make it a great day my friends!
