Hubby and I have really been talking back and fourth on getting Internet Satellite for the home computers. We have two lap tops and a desk top that is mainly used as a server to our lap tops. Since the heat is here, I can’t turn on the air and the desktop computer or it will trip the house, stupid I know but that’s how it is. So Hubby and I use our two lap tops and have the air on and were fine.

We have been having a lot of downtime with our internet provider. They are supposed to be one of the best in the business and I feel there slacking big time with there down time. They need to get there servers up and running so their clients can actually use the internet.

While checking into business satellite internet for my small business, I found that it could be a better deal for me. I have been running my business for almost 4 years now and it so important to have good internet service. Thats how I get all my work done, everything is mostly done on the internet. Where would I be without it? Just thinking about my small business, I can’t believe I have been doing it for 4 years. The time just flew by so super fast. I remember when I was just joining and I was so nervous, now I am good and settled in.

I am getting very angry with my Mary Kay director. I got all my products now and my free products, which is totally awesome. I got a lot of nice free goodies and I really like a lot of their skin products. I do love Mary Kay products, but my director is not helping me. I told her I had some questions about a meeting we went to. My friend Michele signed me up and we are both excited about selling and having parties, but our director is from New York state. She is 4 hours away from us and its hard for us to get over their and its hard for her to get to us.

Michele and I found out that the meeting we went to was not a typical meeting, it was a director debut. If I knew that, I wouldn’t have wasted my time going to that meeting. I know that sounds harsh, but I mean we are both brand new to Mary Kay and have no idea what’s going on. So many terms were being thrown around such as “operation car” Michele and I had no idea what they were talking about and I didn’t want to seem like I was an idiot not knowing what it was. I was also suppose to get pinned at the meeting and never did. Its not even about the pin, I wanted to be recognized that I am new and I am starting my Mary Kay journey.

I sent her a email stating that I called her back, I didn’t want her to think I blew her off and I spoke with her assistant and left a message. I also wrote that I have a lot of questions and that I need a director from this area and not New York. I do have free long distance, but I will tell you now if I didn’t have free long distance I wouldn’t be calling her. She writes me back and tells me that her father has been diagnose with cancer and she hasn’t been in the office, but yet she still goes to meetings and attentions functions. I feel as though she’s doing this on purpose. I spent the money for my business and I want to get it started. I don’t want my products to sit here for months not doing anything. We have a 800 number we call everyday to call to hear a message from her, but yet she doesn’t have the time to call me or e-mail me or my friend Michele. If all else fails, I’ll sell of Mary Kay inventory off on eBay and be done with it.

Other then that nothing really new has been going on. My new computer is great. I really love that I have a computer that is mine. I can take it anywhere I want and its personalized to my liking. What is everyone doing for Thanksgiving? My family and I are going to a buffet styled place to eat which is really bad for my diet. On Saturday I gained 5 pounds!!! 5 freggin pounds! I am so upset with myself.

I have been so sick lately. Both my parents were/are sick and got me sick. This is not fun. I am so stuffed up and I have a cough. I wish it would go away! If you read before about the whole episode with the chocolate, I am suppose to be hearing from the doctor any min now. She called me this morning, but I was sleeping and I called her back, but she was busy so I am patiently waiting results. She told me it wasn’t urgent, but I still want to know. I have been worrying all morning long about it.

I am sorry for the lack of updates. With me being sick and busy I didn’t have time to blog about anything. I want to change domains, do something new, but I decided not too. I paid a lot of money for this domain with all the space and I am going to use it. I am planning on updating this much more and not letting it go.

Last Friday Matthew and I went to New York with his co-worker and her husband. Her husband does hypnosis shows. We have been to one already and this one was even better. Matthew actually went up there. He said he doesn’t really remember anything, I had fun watching him up their! LOL. Once it was done we decided to leave but the car was gone! We found out it got towed because he parked too close to a fire hydrant. So we all got into a cab and headed down to the tow pound and $250 dollars later got the car back! Crazy! I am just glad it wasn’t stolen. We got a good tour of the city in the taxi cab.

I have some exciting news. I decided that I needed a change in my life. Since its hard for me to stand a lot, I decided to go after something I wanted too for my career. I signed up for Mary Kay. My friend sells it and she signed me up. I am so excited. I cant wait to get it all started and get my website all set up and I will share it on here as well. So I am still doing Avon as well. I am going to be a busy girl now! I enjoy working for myself, being my own boss. I really love Mary Kay products as well. Their foundation, eye shadows, blush and mascaras rock. There very good quality and when I buy makeup, I want good quality products if I am going to spend money. I am suppose to be getting my starter kit today and I just ordered it yesterday! Its super fast ! One good thing is that their product center is about 30 mins away from my house. As for Avon’s product center is all the way down in Newark Delaware and takes much more time to get. I could even go their and pick it up and save me $8 dollars! Woo hoo!

I have a few items on ebay if anyone is interested in checking them out. There is two coach purses and a pink ipod nano. Go check it

Finally it is completed. My site is up and running and I am not planning on messing with it until November’s theme. I was messing around with PSP 7 and made the cute top banner. I liked it so much I made it part of my theme! I really need to start making my site the correct way and stop using Front Page. Front Page is great, but it adds codes that are not really needed.

Today I went to the employment agency and things went great. They only have stuff in retail now, but she told me she might have something for a insurance company in a bigger city near me. It’s not the greatest city, but the pay is really GOOD. I would be making more then Matthew! Don’t tell him I said that! Oh well, its possible and well see what happens!

Today is my Mom’s birthday. I picked up my Mom a cake at the store. This cake looks soo yummy. I will be having a very small piece of it! LOL. After going to the agency, I went to the dollar store for some gift bags and tissue paper. You can never have enough of that sort of stuff. My friend’s birthday is Friday, but since she works Friday and she has off tomorrow, we are going to celebrate tomorrow. I have no idea what were going to do, but whatever we do, we always have fun! It scary to think we have been friends since 1998. The time just flew by so fast! I got her a perfume set. I know she will love it!

It is finally back up! I am still working on some sub pages, but for now it looks good. I have been putting in so much time with Pay Per Post, which is good. The money is good! I have 3 more to do, but I decided to take a break and clean the room. You could not imagine how messy our room gets! Since Matthew does not like to clean, I basically do it all, but if I ask him for help, he will help. So I guess I can’t complain! He has his days where he wants to clean clean clean, I make sure to take advantage of that! LOL

Tomorrow is my Mother’s birthday. When I go to the employment agency tomorrow, I am going to pick up a box for her gifts, a card and a delicious cake! I know I shouldn’t be eating cake, but its my weakness, I love sweets! I get that from my Father, thank you very much! Who doesn’t want to eat a piece of cake when its offered to you?

So now I am going to get off, clean the room up, do the rest of my PPP and view some blogs.
