MIA

So I know that I have been missing in action this month, but it has been CRAZY!! I have had school stuff with Grace, regional conference for Premier, and helping Peter with Life Builders. All my pistons are running and I am beat . . . but in a good way.

So here is what has been going on (I am sure you are dying to know, edge of your seat right?):
Peter and I and Life Builders is expanding, he has an office in Riverview, Brandon, and Bradenton now! We are so excited about new opportunities that God is opening up and continue to pray for his hand of blessing on the counselors and Life Builders as they go out into the community.

Peter is going on a trip to California to visit the largest Christian Counseling Center in California! They are going to give him the tour and talk with him about what they do, how they became so successful, and all those type things. He is totally excited about it. I know it is going to be really great to see a picture of what Life Builders could be in our community.

I contemplated scaling back my Premier business to go back to teaching, but after thought and regional rally, I decided not to. I do miss teaching alot, but I really do enjoy being a part of Premier and doing home shows, and I make good money with a super flexible schedule, so I am going to stick with it and press on through this year. My goal is to make designer which is 7 sponsored jewelers and 36 home shows. It is definitely doable and I am super excited to give it a try, Premier is a really awesome company and I really love my fellow jewelers and my upline is fantastic . . .so I am making strides in the right direction.

I am thinking about teaching preschool at BSBA where the kids go to school. It would be 3 mornings a week so I could feed the need to teach and have my little class without a full time classroom. I also would still get to be home when my babies are home which is the most important part of all. That was the biggest reason why I decided to continue with Premier, I get to work in the evenings and any schedule I want so I can work when Peter is home instead of them being in daycare or with a sitter.

Grace had Donuts with Dad and made him a faux wood pencil holder from an aluminum can. She was so proud of it and was dying to give it to him. When I asked her about how it was she informed me that the donuts were so awesome and tasty. Peter told me later that she ate the entire donut . . . quickly.

Peter and the kids went to Michigan were Ben was a ring bearer in a wedding, he looked so stinkin' adorable in his little suit, nothing like 5 below and 12 inches of snow to make you appreciate Florida and its sunny climate.

As for the 5K, I still don't know about it. I haven't quite started running . . . at all so my guess is I might have waited too long to get my butt in gear.

The Week in Review

So I have totally flaked on my blog here the last few days. Let's start with the fact that the air conditioning has been broke for two weeks. Yes, you heard me two weeks. It wasn't so bad the first week because it was so cold it was actually nice, but this last week, whoa! I am a Florida girl, but 85 outside is 90 inside with no air. You know you are hot when you have to change your shirt midday because you are sweating so much. Eww, gross I know! They came today with our new system since the old one was unrepairable. An expense I would have rather done without, but Florida without air would be as bearable as licking an ashtray. I realized I could have bought 840 McDonald's value meal, or 104 pairs of shoes with that money.

On another note, I have been thinking about running a 5K in March. It sounds like a good idea in theory, but the question is can I actually get my butt in gear and do it. I refuse to run/walk it. Either it is run the whole way or forget it. Having to walk part of a 5K means you should have never signed up to begin with, that would be so lame to have to walk. So I am contemplating it, but no decision as of yet.

Grace spent the afternoon at her friends house this week and when she came home (after crying for five minutes about not being with her best friend) she proceeded to inform me of how cool everything is there. She let me know they have a TV in their van, and her mom calls them pumpkin and pea, and she has a leapster, and she . . . on and on and on. So typical, the grass is always greener on the other side.

So for those of you that don't know, I sell Premier jewelry. I really love it, it is alot of fun and I make good money. I am working hard at sponsoring some more jewelers by January. I really want to make designer by then. That means I need to sponsor 6 more jewelers personally, it seems unobtainable, but I am going to work hard at it. It would be really great to earn funds for flying from the Mahusay's. Anyway, I am calling, calling, calling. Doing an event this month to help with the sponsoring. I am praying God will bring those people that could benefit from Premier into my life and that I would seize the opportunity with them, which is half my problem I think, sometimes I miss them. I need some courage and words beyond my own self to inspire others to think about the business.

Anyway, I have a book to read, so I am out of here!
