Ahh...Josie



This is a shout out to my girl Josie! I miss ya!

Today, I went shopping to use the coupon that my mom took from last weekend at the mall. I got a new outfit for when I come to Maryland. Size 12!!! :) I also bought 2 new pairs of shoes at DSW.

I had a great week in selling to the independent accounts this week. In 12 accounts, I sold over $12,800 worth of product wholesale and I still have 2 more stores to sell in on Monday. They said they would have bought more but another company beat me to it. They stated they would have bought more if they knew we were going to sell, because they liked our product better. So I warned them now that I will be selling Valentine's Day for next year soon so to buy from me :) ! They said they would.

Next weekend, I will be coming home for the weekend before my ATS training class. I have to give a presentation the first day I am there. So I have to prepare for that this week. I also have to write my self evaluation for my review that will be happening soon! Can you believe its' almost been a year since I have been here in Chicago. I heard a few people have already starting getting promotions...so I'm crossing my fingers!

March Madness


Can you believe it is already March? How is 2006 flying by so fast? I am so busy at work running around selling like a mad woman, Christmas and Halloween items. I had some luck in today's accounts. Have to run around tomorrow to sell items.

I'm exhausted already, is it Friday yet? I have to work on my projects for Cleveland and then prepare for my presentation. I heard some terrible news that is going on with my Dad's side of the family. Not too happy about that, just in shock I guess and can't stop thinking about it.

I'll be going to Maryland in about 2 weeks for the New Year just for the weekend. Mark and I will be flying out together for the weekend. Well hope all is well with everyone. I'll write more for the weekend.

"What a gas!"


I had a great weekend. My parents came out to visit me this weekend. On Friday, I made Steak Fajita Roll-Ups in my crock pot! It came out great. On Saturday, we all went to the casino in Michigan City! I played Roulette and I was winning towards the end and at one point had over $100. We even tried out the buffet at the casino and it was one of the best buffets at a casino I have been to. They even had a fondue with chocolate and had bananas, marshmallows, strawberries, and rice krispies to dunk in the chocolate!

Later on that night, my mom and I went to the mall and did some shopping and worked off everything we ate. I ended up going to Lenscrafters and getting new glasses. I got some jeans at Carson's (got a great deal on some Tommy H. jeans!) Also, got a new wallet to go with the purse I got last weekend.

Sunday, we went to Kohl's which my dad hates because he can't pass up all the good deals they have! Ha-ha. I ended up getting some clothes and guess what!?! I got some skorts and the size I fit into was size 12!!! Snuggly, but it fit, by the time it gets warm - they'll fit great! For dinner, I made Chicken Parmasan - all homemade - my parents loved it!

There is a miracle inside of you, just waiting to be let out!
