My business

I have to admit that one thing I love to do is sell Avon. I think I really like to buy it more than I sell it. I don't have a job out side of the home so I really do not come in contact with to many people on a daily basis to sell to. I don't make very much money or should I say I never make any money because I never have a way to tell everyone that I am an Avon representative. So I was talking to my unit leader and she suggested that I look into self inking stamps from vista print. They are a great way to always remember to put my name on the back of my Avon books. I always seem to forget to write my name and number on them when I drop them off some place. I also can order business cards from them and give them to people in my every day passings at stores or anyone I come in contact with. Vista print has tons of different ways to get your name to the public. They have car magnets to help you advertise and lots of other business advertisements. I was looking and decided that's what I need to do to get my business booming.

A visit from Jesse

Well Ken has been waiting for this day at work for week now. He found out last week but it was suppose to be kept a secret. He found out that Jesse Jackson Jr. was suppose to be visiting his work today and he wanted to see if it was true or if it was a rumor. I guess he said it was true so many people called him complaining about the working conditions. People said they were hurting so much from the job that they were hobbling out the door at the end of the day. He is suppose to come in and change everything. We will see, my bet is he will do more harm that good it usually ends up that way. I guess his work is setting up tons of stuff to prepare for his arrival. Ken said the people that are complaining just want to be paid for doing nothing which is probably true. Well we will see later this week I am sure for the out come. Poor Ken has to deal with that man all day long. I would hate it.

The Wedding

Well I just talked through email to my cousin about her wedding a couple days ago. I was worrying that we would not be able to make it to the wedding because of the gas prices, but Ken insists that we go anyways. I was not really that I thought we could not afford it but I just was being cheap and did not want to pay that much. Ken says we are going however anyways. So I started looking online for some travel deals. I still am thinking of the money I guess. Oh well what can I say I like to save a little here and there. So since I was looking I think since we can't save on gas we can save other places. So I guess Texas is a Go!

An Apartment

Well I have to say that I am so happy for my cousin Elizabeth because she finally put down money on an apartment of her very own. I have no Idea if her boyfriend is planning on moving in with her I hope not. I really am starting to dislike him. He seems like a nice person but he needs to grow up and be a man. He needs to be the provider. She always pays for everything for him and I tell her all the time she needs to stop. She is not rich and needs to save for the new baby and for Devon. So hopefully she will be doing better now that she has her own place. Maybe she will be more responsible.

Prices on the rise

It is really amazing how prices are always on the rise. Just yesterday I had to pay twelve dollars to get my eyebrows done where I usually only have to pay ten dollars. Not to mention when you go to the movies it used to be so much more affordable. Now it pays to invest in you own home theater furniture and watch movies right from your own home. It might cost more in the long run but over time it will surely pay for itself. With the popcorn and drinks a trip for the movies for only two people and cost thirty dollars. That's without the babysitter. I would rather stay home anyways. Wouldn't you to save some money.

Can't sleep

One thing I hate about myself is that if I have something to do in the morning I can never sleep and I am awake bright and early. Ken hates it more than I do because I am always waking him up telling him that I can not sleep. He usually makes me try because he does not get to sleep in very often. So today I tried and I just could not go back to sleep so I got up and showered and decided to do some tasks while everyone else is still sleeping including Ken. I can almost be however even if he sleeps in and I do not he will still want to go to bed first in the night. I don't require as much sleep as he does. Oh well at least I am getting things done.

A New Sink

I have to say that when we first bought our house I never seen a kitchen quite like ours. We only have one sink in our kitchen and I hate doing the dishes in it. I like two sinks because it is easier and you don't have to have them sitting on the counter after they are washed. So I have been looking for a place that sells sinks that might look better in my kitchen. If I had two sinks I just might be a little more eager to do the dishes. I think that is a selling point for Ken. They have sinks for any room in your house. Whether it be the kitchen or bathroom they have tons of styles for your personal style.
