Arbonne

I had a lunch meeting today with Liesa. She has cut/colored my hair forever now. She is very passionate about Arbonne products. Travis and I have been praying about whether or not this is something that I should get in to. After several months of discussing it, praying about it, and contemplating it, I have finally decided to pursue it. I love the products, and the results on the weight loss system are amazing. I have always wanted to be my own boss- but more importantly- I want to help make a difference in the lives of other people.

I know that by taking on something like this, I am going to receive all kinds of ridicule- it's already begun. But I have to stick to a quote that I know is true:

"Everyone is born into the world to do something unique and something distinctive and if he or she does not do it, it will never be done."

I can't be scared anymore to take a chance at something. I see this business as being very rewarding. It will take hard work, but I am ready for the challenge!

So, if you are interested in hosting a presentation, or viewing a catalog, please let me know.

I think that this will be the start of something great!

10 months today...

Since we got married... seems a lot longer (I don't know if that's good or bad?) but at the same time, it's hard to believe that it's been that long since we got married...all that hard work and time put into planning that day and now it's been 10 months?? It's crazy!


Today is also 2 months until the cruise leaves! I cannot wait!!! 61 days and counting!! And trust me- I am literally counting- I've got a calendar made with a picture of the ship and all! Of course I just printed it off the computer- nothing too spectacular!

Down 30...



This is my lunch everyday...I am beginning to look foward to it...isn't that WEIRD? But hey- it's working...that and a lot of hard work and a very restricted diet...I've lost 30 since the end of February. I'm excited! Of course Travis has lost about double what I have (men!!)- but that's okay, I'm gong to get there!! Now, off to drink my "shake", that's what I keep telling myself!

Have a great day!

Little project- COMPLETED!



Well, I got this piece of furniture from my Dad. It was my great grandmothers- Granny Ligon- Travis brought it home- not knowing exactly why I had to have it...See, I had this pathetic desk- the kind that you buy for like nothing- we got it for like $2 at CVS. Well- it was "pathetic" because I put it together myself- so the poles were completely crooked. It was hilarious. I will try to find a picture and post it later. We were using the desk to house our DVD player, DVR, and DVD's. It was bulky and very sloppy! Now we feel very organized...for now!


Anyway, Travis brought home the very-old-but-new-to-me-shelf and sanded it (because it had my sister Jessi's name carved all over it!!) and painted it black. It does have some dents and dings- but we both just LOVE it in our living room. I will put some better pictures on here later on- but for now- here are some to give you an idea. (They are very small because I took these with my cell phone)
As some of you know, we like to start projects and then we never finish them- this was like a 3 day project- that's it! Can you believe it?!? 3 days- that's it! I will take some pictures of some of the other started-but-not-yet-completed projects we have going on and share them with you next time!!
