TODAY'S INSPIRATION
Today I got my first newsletter from the director of Thirty-one and there was a
wonderful story in it that I felt like needed to be shared with all , hope you find this as encouraging as I did .....
One of the most wonderful things about having a positive attitude is the number of people it touches, many times in ways you'll never know.
Recently, I stopped by a convenience store to get a newspaper and a pack of gum. The young woman at the check-out counter said, "That'll be five dollars please," and as I reached into my wallet, the thought occurred to me that a newspaper and gum didn't quite make it to five dollars. When I looked up to get a "re-quote", she had a big smile on her face and said, "Gotcha! I got to get my tip in there somehow!" I laughed when I knew I'd been had. She then glanced down at the paper I was buying and said, "I'm sick and tired of all this negative stuff on the front pages. I want to read some good news for a change." She then said, "In fact, I think someone should just publish a Good News newspaper -a paper with wonderful, inspirational stories about people overcoming adversity and doing good things for others. I'd buy one every day!" She then thanked me for coming in and said, "Maybe we'll get lucky tomorrow; maybe we'll get some good news," and she laughed. She made my day.
The following day after my business appointments, I dropped by the same store again to pick up bottled water, but a different young lady was behind the counter. As I checked out I said, "Good afternoon" and handed her my money for the water. She said nothing – not a word, not a smile...nothing. She just handed me my change and in a negative tone, ordered..."Next!"
It hit me right between the eyes: Two people, same age; one made me feel great, and the other, well, made me feel that I had inconvenienced her by showing up.
By the choices we make, by the attitudes we exhibit, we are influencing lives every day in positive or negative ways...our family, our peers, our friends, and even strangers we've never met before and will never meet again.
So when you brush your teeth every morning, and get ready for work, ask yourself this important question, "Who do I want to be today?" "The Grouch" or "The Good News Girl?" Your answer will go a long way toward determining your success in business and in life.

BRAGGING A LITTLE
I have to brag a little bit on myself I just completed and submitted my
very first order ( even before I received my kit) and I am proud to say
it was over 200.00 which is the required amount to submit an order for
me to receive a commission check. I am very proud of myself .
I know that might not sound like a very big thing to all of you but to me it
is amazing and make me very proud of myself . Now that I have one small
goal under my belt it is now time to think about the next step . I have
40 days to complete 5 more orders/parties and when I am able to do
that then I get all sorts of bonuses along the way especially for every
two qualifing orders submitted I earn products to help my business
along the way . So now that I have bored you with all of my bragging
I will stop for the night . But just remember if you would like to
order or receive a catalog or hopefully book a party please leave
me a message . Thanks ahead of time.

NEWEST HOBBY/THIRTY-ONE GIFTS
Well I have now taken the plunge and started a new hobby/business . I am
now an offical Thirty-One consultant. I honestly thing this will be a great
past time for me. I am not necessarily looking to make a ton of money
but if that happens then that would be great as well . But I truly love the
products they offer as well as the company being faith based . Also it is
a company mainly for women but also created by women .Which I am a
firm believer that women can do anything they set their minds to . So
wish me all the best of luck , say a prayer for me and hopefully you
would like to place an order , book a party or even host a catalog show

CATCH UP
Feels like forever since I posted anything. I have so much to share
with you guys . First I celebrated my 40th birthday this past weekend.
Which it turns out that it is only a number . Cause I have decided that
you are only as old as you feel , and right now I only feel like I am
21. Want a good laugh I spent my 40th birthday at the circus. I thought
about becoming a clown (of course I seem to already act like one)
But I must say that I had a wonderful birthday weekend. First I
went to eat with a friend of mine at Sticky Fingers and then spent the
the rest of the weekend with the family.
Now I trying to decide if become a consultant for Thirty-One. Not sure
if I have what it takes to handle being a Thirty-one consultant . I do
know that I love there products so much . From what I can tell
Thirty-one seems to be a booming company and there are lots of
opportunities to make extra money
from doing what you enjoy . Also I like the thought of it being a faith
based company because I have been thinking extra hard about how
my life is going.And the lord might just be sending me in this direction
for a reason .
So if there are any folks out there that is already a Thirty-One consultant
please leave me a message and let me know how it is working for you .
Also if you would like to purchase some thirty-one products please feel
free to leave me a message.

STRANGE NEWS
On my way to work I heard a real strange news story , somewhere
in Kansas a woman was stuck to a toilet and it appears she has been
staying in the bathroom of a mobile home for the past 2 years. Well after
getting to work I decided to investigate into the story a little deeper . Well
it appears she had some strange phobia and would not come out fo the
bathroom - she bathed, dressed , ate , slept and as the report stated
had a normal relationship with her boyfriend ( didn't really want to know
all that meant used my imaganation on that part) but the boyfriend would
bring her food, water and clean clothes to the bathroom . Now I honestly
can imagine someone having that type of phobia so bad that they want to
stay in a mobile home bathroom , I meant those can be extra tiny .
Anyway just check out the story and feel free to post any comments would
like to know what others folks think about this bizarre event.

SURVIVAL ....MAYBE
What a crazy week I have had and afraid it is still not over by a long shot.
I have not blogged in a few days , mainly one I have nothing really to say
and second I have going and going like the silly pink bunny . My son is
going to have surgery on Friday , so I am trying to get all my work done
ahead of time since I will be taking a few days off even though I am
able to do some of the stuff from home. Then our regional boss gave me
a semi large amount of new work to handle , so I told him that it needed to
come with a semi-large addition to my paycheck . Then today I took back a
job that was suppose to be handled in our home office but they seemed to
royally screw it up , so I told them to give it back . Mainly to keep the drivers
happy and me not taking a trip to Atlanta to smack our safety guy.
OMG the best news of all I have a wonderful new male friend that I have a
feeling will become more as time goes by . Or at least I would like that to happen .
So wish my luck on all the upcoming stuff and if you here about a woman
going crazy on a safety guy in Atlanta don't worry it is just me .....

STAYING YOUNG
Now that I am only a few weeks away from the big 40. I have
started wondering how to make my skin stay young looking. I know
there are lots of products out there that claim to do just that but which
is the best one. I have found a somewhat new product that promises
to give yourskin the look of 20 years younger . Burnison
Why not take a look at Ethocyn
and be like me and try and look like a hot 20 yr younger person instead of a
40 something old maid .
Who knows 40 might be the best year of my life . Guess time will tell .

WEEKEND SURVIVAL
This past weekend was the birthday party for my son . The first time I have
held the party at home . In the past we have had the party at a location where
all I had to do was show up . But being I am a new home owner I decided to
have to party at home . There were 6 kids besides the birthday boy . We
played a couple of games and planned to watch a movie but since it was
such a nice day outside the kids ending up playing outside most of the day .
All in all I think it went very well . The cake was great , kids seemed to have a
good time all except for one that I made mad at the start of the party but
oh well,the day was great and warm , and my house is still in one piece .
Then I finally got to hear the roar of the race engines , the Bud
Shootout was held Saturday night from Daytona . Tony actually ran up
front for a while but ended up second behind Dale Jr and his new ride
for Hendricks. Can't wait to see how great the 50th Anniversary of the
Daytona 500 is going to be . I think this year is going to be a much better
racing year then the last one . The cars seem much more equal .
Oh I can wait to see what type of fine and or punishment Nascar hands out
for the altercation during shootout practice between Kurt Busch (yuck) and
Tony Stewart . Then from the rumors there was bigger issues inside the
Sprint trailer or the oval office . So it will be a very exciting and interesting
Daytona 500 cause I know Tony will get back at Kurt for what he did ...

MEAN FOLKS
Why are there so many mean folks in the world? I mean there are folks
that you honestly try to help out and do lots of nice things for them
and then what do you get in return NOTHING! or they just
take advantage of you being so nice and helping them out . I mean I have a
so called friend who I have done several things for in the past and not asked
for any money in return and what happens he tried screw me over BIG TIME!
I mean they one and only time I have asked for this certain person to
give me back what I have gotten for them. He acts like it is all my fault
and what a bad person I am , when he is the one that did me wrong.
He even went as far as possible threatening me today . And I must say
that I don't take to being threatening at all when I feel like I am backed
into a cornerI come out fighting big time. So don't be surprised to read
soon something that might just surprise you and the so called great person
that did me wrong cause I feel like the time is coming soon.
I think for sure I have learned my lesson this time and will NEVER AGAIN
let someone use a credit account that I have to get them something cause
I ALWAYS seem to get screwed and not kissed.....

SCHOOL LIFE
I have an almost 10 yr old son and I am very involved everyday in some
type of fundraising , or something that they have going on at the school
from helping at the carnival to helping with a lunch for the teachers . So I
think anyway to be able to
raise money for private schools for our school in worth taking.
Now he is not enrolled in a private school but I feel like the public school
can benefit just the same as a private school would on any of the
fundraising events . He is a proud student of McBrien Elementary in
the somewhat great city of East Ridge , TN.
Of course now if the was a way to receive an assistance on the tuition cost of
the private school , I am sure then my son would be attending a private
school for middle grades. This might be something to check into very soon.

GOOD NEWS
Think we all could use a little good news from time to time so I wanted to
share mine.
Let me start from the beginning back in December my son's classroom was
involved in making up some shoeboxes to be sent to the troops in Iraq. So
wanted to be the extra helpful person that I like to be we (my mom and I
created a few just from us ) So I included a card inside the box that said
this was a gift from along with our address as well and a simple little
note saying Thanks . Well I really have not given much thought to who
would receive the box just wanted to make sure that had
some stuff that would be helpful for them . Anyway that brings me to
the news in the mailbox yesterday was a card addressed to myself and
my son thanking us for the box and telling us a little about himself , turns
out he is a priest from here in Chattanooga, Tn . That simple little Thank
you card just made think about how all the problems I have in my life
actually aren't as bad as they could be . So the next time you say your
prayers just send up a little blessings for the men and women overseas .
God Bless the USA!!!!!!!

2007 MEMORIES AND MOVING FORWARD
With 2007 rapidly coming to an end I take this time to look back
at all the good and bad things that happen in 2007. First the best thing that
happen to me is I got an almost brand new home , of course after all the
work that when into it you might as well say brand new home. Which made
me a homeowner ( which has a good side but also a bad side as well) .
Had a small surgery which actually turned out to be a great thing cause it
solved alot of the problems I was having. Then you have my so called
wonderful LOVE life or should I say Lack of one , had BIG problems in that
department but I suppose it all worked out for the best . But I have
plans to make all of the change in the new year , not sure exactly how
but somehow I think it will work out for the better. You know when
you write things out I really didn't have alot of bad things happen to
me so I guess 07 was actually a great year for me .
And I have decided instead of making resolutions ( that always seem to get
broken ) I think I will just call them goals to make for the new year
first is to be a better friend and spend more time with my friends I have now .
Then second I sort of have an eye on someone who is only a friend at this
time but hopefully want to make him more then that in 08. WISH ME LUCK
cause I know it is going to take some time cause he is a lot on the scared
side for some strange reason , hopefully I can make him see that I am
not a scary person or at least I don't think I am .
So everyone has a great big time in the new year and all of your hopes
and dreams come true!!!!!!!

CHRISTMAS BLESSINGS
Christmas time is a wonderful time of year , and there are lots of thoughts
going thru my mind one is the main reason for the season
we celebrate the birth of Christ, which is something I am so blessed to have be
a part of my life . But also I am blessed to have the gift of friendship , I think
that everyone needs at least one really special person in their life if for nothing
else then to go have a ice cream cone with and share a great laugh with all about nothing at all . . Well I know that I have NOT always shown my friendship in the best of ways but I just want to say Thanks for being my friend thru good times and bad times and MERRY CHRISTMAS to a really wonderful friend of mine Sabrina and her family
( her mother, Shane , and of course Diesel ) Hope you guys have the best time
together today and always.

FLYING TIME
Well here it is only 3 more days til Christmas and I still have stuff that
needs to be wrapping and put under the tree. But I was able to send out
a few Christmas cards but other then that I have been at the hospital
sitting with my mother who just got her second knee replacement
on the same knee , hopefully this will fix all the trouble she has been
having for the last several months . Don't get me wrong I am very close with
my mom but man I hate having to be at the hospital for hours on hours
I mean the day of her surgery we were there just sitting and waiting for
her for over 9 hours and I know I was tired can't even imagine what my
son was thinking but I have to admit he was super good and I am really
proud of him . He didn't give me any trouble at all .
Well I have got to stop typing and start wrapping on it will never be done.
WIsh my luck ......

BORING LIFE
I have decided to make it offical I live a really boring life . I mean everyday
it seems like I do the same the over and over again . Come home eat dinner
and then help with homework ,and either do a load of landry or some type
of work around the house . And Lord knows that is something that
I am notvery good at . I am not a domestic person . I hate to cook
alot ,even though I will be responsible for the Christmas Day dinner for
my family , really scary. I prefer to make reservations for dinner. Now it is my
goal to have some major excitement put back into my life by the beginning
of the new year , not sure just what that might be but I am going to do
something big . If not by the end of the year for sure by the end of
March when I turn the BIG 40. I can't believe I am heading that way .
I am sure if you ask anyone that knows me I for sure don't act that old but
here lately I sure do feel it a bunch of the time. So now it is the time to
over feeling sorry for me and start making things change for the better so
watch out world here I come wide open .

DISAPPOINTMENT IN COMCAST
Tonight is the Nextel Cup Awards ceremony well I was
excited only reason being to be able to see Tony Stewart
in a tux, I could care less about seeing Jimmie Johnson, well to my
surprise Comcast in Chattanooga does not carry the channel it is being
shown on ,ESPN Classic . Of course I am not sure why it is being shown on
that channel . I am greatly disappointed in Comcast and somewhat with
NASCAR for broadcasting the end of the year big show on a channel that is
not shown where I am . Ok now I understand that I am not the only fan
of NASCAR but personally I think it should be shown on either
ESPN,ESPN 2 or SPEED . at least a channel that actually broadcast
a race during the season . Ok now I feel somewhat better since I have
vented so now I think I will get off my soapbox and make a phone call
to the cable and try and figure out just how I can see Tony looking
so good in his tux. Thanks for listening....

BEGINNING TO LOOK LIKE CHRISTMAS
Well now that Thanksgiving has come and gone it is time to look forward to
Christmas ( my favorite time of the year) . After I got up on Friday and
hit the store almost wide open I came home and start to decorate for
Christmas . This is the first Christmas in my new house , I am so
excited to be able to decorate everything myself with the help of my
son . We put up our new tree and I created a wreath for the door. Then
we also put up some lights outside maybe this week I will be able to take
a picture and post for you guys . I must say Black Friday was quite an
experience this year for me usually it lots of fun but for some reason this
year just didn't seem the same . Not sure if it was just I was not in mood or
if the store just didn't offer the deals as I have gotten in the past . But either
way me and mom had a good time and managed to get lots of things done.
My favorite deal was at Target - I got a new camera as an early Christmas
gift to me ...Anyway I hope if any of you guys ventured out on Black Friday
you had lots of fun and found lots of great deals. Let me know where you
got the bargains ..Hope you enjoy my pictues .

THANKSGIVING THOUGHT
As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches I turn my thoughts away from
shopping and Christmas fun to think about something that is alot more
important . The troops that are over seas fighting for us here in America.
I am very thankful to say that I am an american and for our freedom. My
heart goes out to the troops who have given their lives for us to have what
we have in America. This week my son's school made up shoes boxes
to be sent to the troops in Iraq and that really made me think about all we
have while all the men and women are away from their families and
loved ones fighting for others freedoms. I was so glad to have the chance
to share something from home with the troops we made up 4 boxes ( my
mom and myself) and then contributed to the 2 his classroom made , I hope
the boxes make it to the troops and it let them know that we miss them and
hope they come home safe and sound soon. So while you are craving your
turkey or slicing your pies just remember to think about the troops and
send up a prayer of thanks and safety for them ...
GOD BLESS THE USA ........

ALMOST DONE
Well tonight was one more thing to mark off my list . The safety banquet for
my work was held tonight at the Chattanoogan hotel in downtown
Chattanooga. This was the first time I have been to that hotel and I must
say I was greatly impressed . Everyone there was very polite, nice and
helpful in the past we have held the banquets at the Choo-Choo and the
Read House but I was not impressed with those places the service
was not that great and the food was not impressive either . But tonight
everyhting was wonderful , so I highly recommend the Chattanoogan
for any event you have coming up in the near future .
Anyway back to the banquet we had a great turnout , good food, and
great company. We didn't dress up for the drivers as we have done in
the past but we actually had a prize wheel which held all the door prizes
and the drivers had to spin the big wheel to win a prize .
All in all it turned out great but honestly I have to admit I am so glad
it is FINALLY over ...This has been a lot of work . But I guess as long
as everyone had a great time it was worth it .
Now the only thing left for the month is SHOPPING and EATING way to much
turkey .....

MOODS
Has anyone been in a strange type of mood lately? I was wondering if
I am the only one that seems to be depressed-having a case of the
BLAHS! I am not sure if it is the weather changing or a side effect of
the new medicine the doctor has put me on but today was extra bad
I didn't want to leave the house ..You know one of those days when you
just want to put on your old comfy sweats and cover up on the couch and
hide from the world or spend the whole day in bed . Well today was just
that kind of day for me . Ususally I am a happy go lucky type of person
and they tell me at work I am a bubbly type of person but not today
I must have had every driver ask me what was wrong with me today .
And the only answer I could them was I was just having a really bad
day and didn't want to be at work .So if anyone has some really funny
jokes please send them my way cause I could use some happy things
today and really good laughs .....
But the worst part of this whole thing is I am hosting a party at my house
on Sunday , so I need to get my spirits back up and get in a festive
mood. I have cleaning and cooking to be done ....Wish me lots of luck and
hope my party is a success.....

TO BUSY TO THINK
This month is going to be so busy for me , I am sure by the end of
November I will not know if I am coming or going. I have plans
every single weekend this month.It all starts on Saturday. I am going
to be helping out at my son's school for the Fall Carnival
( working the duck pond) . Then the next weekend I will be hosting
a Thirty-one party. Which
I am really excited about cause I think they have great products
and am in love with all of them . More about that to follow. Then there
will be a safety banquet for the drivers at my work that I have to
attend. It will be held at the Chattanoogan here is Chattanooga. It will
be a Christmas \Safety banquet where the drivers are honored for
being safe all year . They receive awards and also there are several
door prizes and a visit from Santa for all the kids big and small. Then
to make it a little more interesting me and the other 2 folks in the
office dress up each year and attempt to put on some sort of show.
Usually we dress according to a christmas theme ( Elves, Santa
helpers, one year we even did How the Grinch stole Christmas) but
this year we have a idea of being Cheerleader. I will for sure let
you know how that goes and try to post a picture of us . Then
it will be time to get ready for Thanksgiving and then the Christmas
shopping season will begin. Now after I have shared all of this info
with you guys I need to go and take a nap, I am so tired just thinking
about all the things to come that I have to do . Well wish
me lots of luck and I will for sure let you know how it all turns out.

MONDAY ON FRIDAY
Today was suppose to be an easy go lucky day ...I was only working part of the day then spending time with my son who got out of school early today ..
Well I left work and from there everything started going down hill at a fast rate of speed. First I got stuck in traffic trying to get off the freeway and almost was
involved in 3 wrecks . Then this man pulled over in front of me while I was
sitting in the turning lane and then yells at me about it . Finally make it to the
school 5 min plus late . Go get lunch and head out to Target to get a few things
well from there another major problem happen . I was doing my shopping
and got out of the store to discover I have now lost my cell phone. So
we start looking everywhere and couldn't find it anywhere. I checked with a
Verizon Wireless to see what can be done to get a replacement . Of course the only thing to be done is file an insurance claim . So when I got home I went through the car again ,still no luck . I make one last attempt to find it I called both Goody's and Target to see if anyone has turned it in , and luckily when I was on the phone with Target someone had found it and was turning it in . So finally something good happen today ...I lost and found my phone all in the same day .Now I hope to be able to enjoy the rest of the weekend.

ALL TYPES OF ABUSE
Have you ever actually sat down and thought about all the types
of abuse there are in the world . The most obvious would be the
drug\alcohol abuse ,sexual, physical ,mental, verbal and also you
can have some minor ones like food, sweets and those types of things .
The reason I had this on my mind today is I discovered a cousin of mine
is back in jail. And is charged with domestic assault now I am not totally sure
what that means except there must have been a mark left on the other
person. He has had a troubled life mainly with the drug abuse but I never
thought he would be the type to be charged with domestic assault , he was
always a easy going person in his younger days and would do anything to
help you out . But as he got older he got involved with the wrong crowd and
turned to drugs, and made several other bad choices . Now he is grown
and 38 years old and has a very long police record and no family left to
do anything to help him . So my main question is what makes a person
become a drug abuser or an alcoholic ? Does anyone think there is
a chance that somehow it is all in the genes ? Personally I belive you can
inherit a gene to make you more likely to become a drug user or alcoholic .
I personally lived with an alcoholic ,actually married him not knowing just how bad of a problem he had, but after several attempts I made the wise choice to
leave the situation not before finding out that his father also used to have a drinking problem . So that is one reason I think you can inherit a drinking problem if you are not careful . Mainly from my past experiences . So now
I will step down off my soap box and basically say this. If you have a problem the main thing if for you to admit there is a problem and ask for help . Then once you are willing to accept the help there will be someone out to willing to
step up to the plate to help . And I also learned that you can't force help on
anyone.

SCHOOL TIME
Tonight was an interesting night for me , they held a math family night at my
son's school. Ok he is only in the 4th grade so you would think math would
not be a problem for me, it was my favorite and best subject . Well I discovered tonight that the way math was done when I was in school is not quite the way it is done nowdays , which in turn made me feel really old. .Now I feel like I must have graduated 100 years ago instead of just
21 years ago . Who would have ever thought math would change that much.
First I learned how to multiply a totally different way , doing it diagonally and in small boxes , very different then I learned . Lord only knows how they do division now . Don't get me wrong I always get the right answer just not the way they want the problem solved , oh well.......Then I also found out that another child's dad was someone I went to school and graduated with , didn't remember him ,but he also seemed to not know the NEW way to do math, thank the good lord I was not alone.
Anyway I am really glad that I had the chance to attend the special night at his school and take an interest in his learning. I think helping your child learn is one of the greatest gifts of all.

CHATTANOOGA NEWS
Well if you live in the Chattanooga area I am sure you have heard about the
death of a Chattanooga doctor. Dr. Bruce Pancake , now personally I never went to see this doctor and I would not go to see him either, only because watching him on television gave me a strange feeling about him . I did happen to go to his office but only to purchase Bare Mineral make-up . But I hate to hear of a death of anyone. And I have read alot of comments regarding Dr. Pancake but regardless of his lifestyle choices and where or not he took his own life he still leaves behind a griefing family ( wife and children and other loved ones ). So folks need to remember his family in their prayers cause they are the important ones left to deal with all the stuff he left behind ...God Bless the family.

BACK TO NORMAL
Not sure exactly what normal for me is but today I went back to work . Man was it hard I honestly didn't realize how tired I would be until I came home and had to take a short nap before cooking dinner ( not that I cook alot ) But I made it thru the day and I have to say I sure did miss my early afternoon nap and being able to sit back on the couch and work on my craft of choice. I have been making quilts (small ones) but using cheater's cloth and I personally think they turn out very nice. I am getting ready to start my 7th one I think . I start quilting because of my son , he wanted me to make a Thomas the Tank Engine quilt for him and he had enough faith in me to be able to get it done . And after I finally completed it I was hooked now everytime I get close to the fabric dept at Wal Mart I have to stop and usually end up with some sort of material . Also I have discovered that the Wal Mart on Gunbarrel Road has a better selection
of material at very good prices I like the $2 a yard stuff. So just in case you are a crafty person and are looking for a good deal on fabric try the Wal Mart on Gunbarrel Rd. and hope you have as much fun as I do with your craft of choice ..HAPPY CRAFTING!!!!!!!

FOSTER PARENTS
Let me start by saying that I think foster parenting is a great thing if done for the right reason ,but on the other hand I have recently discovered that there is a couple that appears to be doing it for the wrong reason MONEY. I have found out that my ex-husband and his wife have become foster parents for the state of Georgia . First let me say that the state of Georgia must be really hard up for foster parents to allow someone with their backgrounds to become foster parents. He has three children of his own that he never saw and now it is too late for them to know their father /sperm donor . His son is grown (18) and he never spent time with him . His daughter who he didn't see for 6yrs was brutally murder . And his last son which is 9 yrs old now he signed away his parental rights. But that state of Georgia says Ok let give them someone else
childern to take care of , give me a break why would he want someone's else when he didn't take care of his own . Not only did he not spend time with his own childern his is also an alcoholic on top of everthing else. So if you happen to have childern or know of childern in foster care in North Georgia you might want to check into who the family is that is taken care of them . Cause it just might be the wrong ones.
