Private.

Not sure if I have any readers out there... but I'll be retiring this blog to private settings soon. Things have gone from bad to worse and I don't want my negativity on what should have been a positive blog about the epic life I was supposed to finally have. It was never meant to be negative or a place for me to vent. Only a place for me to share a little sweetness on the internet since it is hard to find at times.

Wow... Momentum...

So July ended up being a crazy busy month. And in our Team News letter, I saw this:

Top Sales for July:           Kristal T.

and

Earned Home Office Challenge I:   Kristal T.

How did that happen? I sold books like crazy. It was fun watching people get so excited about them too. 

So... here's to a great August! I have almost nothing on the calendar, but Monday I have a really big home show... 12 guests so far! I told the hostess to tell each guest to bring a friend not originally invited and they'll get a free book. Can you imagine? 24+ people? That's like... a holiday at my grandma's house!  I'm excited and a wreck all at once.

My hope is I can get 3 people on my team who really want to work the business. And also, to have a crazy successful show.

Whatif... I just try. :)~

Moving Past the Negativity

I've decided to just ignore those who don't want to support me. It's easier than getting worked up about it.

So, here I am...

I have my July calendar BOOKED and am now working on August. Crazy. This could very well work...

Defeated.

There is seriously nothing worse than coming home from a completely awe inspiring experience thinking I'll be able to get this book biz off the ground and in the right direction only to have your husband not give a rats ass.

So over this.

StoryTime

This was a pretty big hit. Granted, only 3 moms of the 15 showed up.. but that's ok! It was the perfect size. The kids listened as I read two books to them and then did their craft.

It took about an hour and a half of the day... and somehow it's already 2pm. I should do this every week... LOL

At this point, I'm going to just try and shoot for every other week. But I genuinely had a good time. So now to plan more projects for the next Storytime. OH and I booked a party off of it! Score :)

Social Life... Hahahahahaahaha

This post is inspired by my Canadian friend over at Mommy by Day.

Her post today was basically about saying a total of about 5 words to adults all week. Oh, how I can relate.

My week will look like this:

** Yesterday, declutter house while entertaining an almost 3 year old and 14 month old. This was all to prepare for a house keeper to come and actually clean the house because I would much rather be anywhere but inside my home.

** Today, wake up, do dishes, get kids dressed/fed.. go to swim lessons. After swim lessons, we went to my grandmother's for lunch. Then we came home so the house keeper could get in. While the house keeper was here, I got a solicitor.

Here's my social life. I spent about 30 minutes talking to this guy about how there was no way I would ever use them. This is how desperate I am for adult interaction. I talk to solicitors.

** Tomorrow, last minute prep work for StoryTime. Here's hoping people show up. However, I secretly want no one to come. I hate reading aloud. Much less to a bunch of kids. And their parents. I imagine the rest of the day will be spent by the kids watching TV (really???) and me curled up in a corner crying because things didn't go exactly to plan. I'm so predictable.

** Thursday will most likely be spent by not leaving the house again. It's also our anniversary, which means nothing other than we may tell each other how we wish we could go out to eat... alone.

** Friday - repeat Thursday, minus the anniversary wishlist convo.

How do I not go insane? Hmm... let me get back to you on that one.

Birthday...

That moment when you want to tell your baby brother happy 30th birthday, but know you can't because he hates you for calling him out on all his (and his wife's) rudeness...

Life is funny sometimes... ya miss someone who was so awful to you... why? The last 3.5 years haven't been great with this relationship. And for once, I can honestly say, it wasn't my fault and there's zero way it could be.
