I Might Be Going Out Of Business....

I have been a Mary Kay consultant since October 2005. I have not really done anything with my business in a LONG time. I am thinking about going out-of-business. However, every time I think about doing this, I get orders from people. :( So I have to place an order to get their stuff for them........

I have thought about putting my stuff on eBay (or having a friend do it). That way I can stay "active", but not have the classes and stuff... I really don't have time right now. I know that I could probably sneak in one a month or maybe two. BUT...with Chasity in dance, Girl Scouts, and sports (depending on the season)... it's really hard. Plus, with me working with the Girl Scouts, PTO, taking classes, being active at my church, I really don't have spare nights to do anything.

I try to look my best and meet people when I am out and about, but more often than not, I just don't...I just don't.

I don't know what to do. All I know is I have a couple thousand dollars of inventory sitting on the shelves in my office. Some of it is already discontinued. Other stuff will be discontinued soon, probably. The products are changing, but most of the packaging is changing. So my products are in-date, but my packaging is "old".

I really just don't know what to do.... I guess I'll just have to keep thinking about it.



Until next time........

I think the eBay thing sounds like a good plan.

I agree or have an open house with the Mary Kay products you have and then what is left, you can put on ebay. Maybe you can post a list of what you have.

I like Anas suggestion. Life is so busy, hard to find time for everything. My summer is great so far, days passing too quickly, but love being on MY schedule.

Weight Update!!

Last week, I didn't weigh myself because I was sick! Plus, I didn't really eat anything much at all last week. I did, however, register for Weight Watchers online. So I did spend time reading up and learning about the program. Today, I got on the scale. Two weeks ago, I weighed 402. Today, I weigh 390! In two weeks, I have lost another 12 lbs. That makes a total of 26 lbs. so far! I'm excited! Yeah, if you look at the previous post about my weight, it says that I started at 412. Yeah... I looked at the paper wrong. I started at 416. I lost 4 lbs the first week. I lost 4 lbs the second week. I lost 6 lbs the third week. Then I didn't weigh in last week. I weighed in today at 12 lbs down! I can tell it mostly in my pants. I HATE for my pants to be baggy, so I buy them to fit! Yesterday, I wore my black dress pants to church and I had to keep pulling them up. I'm going shopping next Sunday with my mom! I'm so happy! Next Sunday is my bday! So.....

Still Learning

Ok...so I'm always learning something new. However, recently, I have seriously been thinking about something. I want to learn to sew. My mom has a sewing machine I can use any time I want to. Of course, if I really learn to sew, I'd want my own sewing machine! ;) Anyways, I have been checking into classes. I have only found one place in my town that does classes. They offer a 4 week class for $115. That's not bad for a class. But, I'm afraid I wouldn't learn in 4 weeks and I'd need to take the class again! lol Anyways, I'm still looking into it. I'd love to learn. I will one day. However, I've seen some REALLY cute things that I'd love to sew for Chasity to wear! :) Until next time........

NC Weather

Image
In the state of NC, we rarely get that BIG SNOW. They used to be more common.  We used to get one huge snow a year.  Now, we are lucky if we get one every 2-3 years.    However, schools are cancelled, delayed, or let out early for weather all the time here.  We haven’t heard anything today about our schools, but we shall see.    It’s all about waiting to see what happens.  Sometimes, I think that God is sitting up there showing us HIS sense of humor.  He lets the weather people tell us whatever they want to tell us.  Then HE decides to have some fun with the weather.  (That’s just my 2 cents!)   Countdown Updates: 0 days until I pick up cookies!  TODAY is the day! They are still calling for “weather,” but they are pushing back the start time to later today. My scheduled pick up time is 6pm. So, we shall see.  It should be fine. Tony is going to drive me there so I’m not having to do it alone.  Then ...
