Playing Catch Up

So I have realized that while I read other blogs with consistency, I stink at keeping my own up! I guess I don't really feel like I have much to say that is particularly interesting. Well that and I don't really have time to sit and write very often. I doubt many people do though, so fair is fair. If I am going to read I suppose I should attempt to write as well.

I have recently decided to become a salesperson. I am surprised at myself to be honest. I have always had lots of friends who have tried various companies...Mary Kay, Pampered Chef, Scencey (scency? I am not sure how to spell that one!) etc. I never thought I would join them. I have had several people comment that I should try it. I enjoy hosting parties and I am good at working with people. I just never wanted to put the time or effort into any of the products. Now I feel like I have found the perfect fit for me, however, and that the timing is perfect as well.

Starting next month I will be a Premier Jeweler.I LOVE jewelry! My best friend Jen has been selling it for a few years now and she loves it. I love it! I have bought SO much from her (too much...let's be honest). She does not go crazy with it and it is not her primary job, but it has been both profitable and enjoyable for her. I need some extra money, especially now that Michael is living with me so...I guess we shall see.

One of the older ladies in the company asked me what my fears about starting are...we determined mine is a fear of failure. I think that truthfully, though, I fear failing in general more than particularly with this company. I fear I will not be a good parent, a good employee, a good friend etc. I have so many things pulling me in so many directions that adding something more is a bit of a stretch of faith for me. I think I can do it, though. I am not sure why but I feel like the stars have aligned just right and I am ready to try.

So...wish me luck. Oh and buy some jewelry!
