Better Blogging

After reading one of my most admired friend blogs I was so jealous. She takes the most simple topic and makes it the most enjoyable reading. I wish she would publish a book with all her interesting thoughts. The way she has a way of describing her story and how in touch you feel you would understand.
This made me think about my blogging. The reason I started a blog was to share my life experiences and to journal my thoughts. I have misused my blogs. I try to catch up and and put to much into one subject. I need to spend more random times and thoughts into my blog and turn them into excellent reading. This is what I promise myself. I will blog more often and focus on one thought and share it in detail.
I will start this change tomorrow, as I need to practice and not carry on with catching everyone up on my chaos life. Tomorrow I will think of a topic that I need to express and blog about that.

Catching Up!

Wow! It has been a long time since I have posted anything. I have so much I don't know where to start. First I want to Congratulate my baby sister & her husband who just found out tonight that they are expecting a baby boy this July. I cannot wait to meet him. This is a true blessing for our family.
My business with Premier Designs has been going great. January was a slow month just getting back from holidays and having Rally, but I did have a few shows and my first $1000 show. Yea!! It was a lot of fun and this gets easier and easier. This month I have 7 parties and am possibly sponsoring my first Jeweler. I hope everything works out because I know she will be awesome and Premier will be awesome for her!!
Spring is hopefully coming soon. The weather has been so cold and snowy in Ohio this winter. We are having slightly higher temps this week and most of the snow is melting. Yea because I haven't seen the ground since early Dec. But with Spring also means my husband will return back to his normal work schedule and start to travel. We are planning on a romantic getaway for us in Gatlinburg. The last few years have been family vacations and we need a weekend to relax.
Hope everyone else is having a wonderful start to 2011 as we are.

Inspirational

Last weekend I was blessed enough to attend my very first Rally as a Premier Designs Jeweler. I was not sure what to expect, and I was so overwhelmed with the warmth of everyone presence. I could not believe how many Jewelers were there. Over 3000 attended. Most of Rally was a lot of recognition of jewelers reaching new levels. Premier truly gives us the opportunity to continue to grow and be rewarded.
At Rally we listened to a lot of people who's lives were touched and changed by Premier. In almost everyone story you could somewhat connect to them. You understood and felt glad that someone else had the same obstacle's as you did. We were introduced the new Spring jewelry, and had short videos on how to mix & match different pieces together. I was so excited I came home Sat. and already ordered my new favorite pieces!
National Rally is the July in TX. I really want to attend. The cost will be more since I will have to travel and stay at a hotel.

This Week

For some reason I have this habit to put everything off. Thinking I have plenty of time and it is so far away. Now here I am with my Rally this weekend. It is a huge deal. My very first rally. I have to plan on outfits and go totally out on jewelry so it is a very hard decision, and of course I am sitting here with a list of things to get done by Thursday.
We are expecting a snow storm tomorrow so this could delay me even more, but a lot of my to do list is things here so I guess I will be trapped and forced to get focused and items checked off.
As soon as I get finished with Rally I am getting busy of promoting my business and my blog. I really want to share the great jewelry combos I have discovered. So many ladies see a necklace and just see it. You would be amazed that with Premier's necklace some of them have at least 3 options to them. Combining them gives you even more.

Shopportunity

Tonight I am hosting my very first Shoppportunity w/ my Premier family. What a Shopportunity is, we invite ladies to come and listen to a quick presentation on Premier's background and why Premier has changed our life so much. After the presentation they can shop for 50% off the entire Premier catalog. I am excited, since I never went to a Shopportunity before becoming a jeweler myself. Each of us try to invite a few ladies. I am crossing my fingers the one person I was able to confirm is still coming.

2011

2011 officially begins for me today. The kids have returned to school after a long winter break. Life will return to somewhat normal and routine. I love the holidays but the start in October with Halloween and don't stop until now. I am ready to start the New Year. I am so many things I am excited for this year. I have new goals and agendas for 2011. I have never felt so positive and determined as I am for this year to begin.
In 2010 our family had some changes. Most of the changes were good and a couple were not so good, but it taught me that I am blessed in so many ways that I can overcome anything and we have. Our family bond is so close and with them anything will and can happen. I quit my full time job in the fall of 2010. This was huge decision but with my husbands understanding and support we will make it. I started my new business with Premier Design, with huge support from all my family and friends! Premier has truly changed my life. It has given me the time for my family. Working full time before I have missed so much.
In 2011, our family will be expecting a new baby. Yea! My baby Sister is expecting her second child. This is a true blessing for her family. Her husband just completed his last radiation therapy and test results were clear from Lymphoma Cancer. It has been quite awhile since our family has had a baby around. My youngest was the last and he is now 9. We are all very excited!!!!
I will also be kicking off my Premier business. Since we made the decision for me to stay at home, I need to make sure I can expand my jewelry business and make it successful. I have my very first rally coming up in a couple of weeks. I can't wait to go and meet all of the other Premier ladies. This will be my true jump start to my business. My Premier family always gives me motivation.
My personal goal this year is to continue to be successful in my life. I don't measure success by wealth but by my personal relationships. My relationship with my Husband, children, parents, siblings and my friends. I am so blessed by each of their relationships.
I also promise to work on my blogging expertise. I am a new blogger and after viewing some other blogs I see that mine needs lots of TLC. I will work on it and in the next few days expect some changes :)
