Days 315,316,317 So I hate to talk anything negative here. (anywhere really, but let's leave it at that.... ) however, I'm really annoyed over this blog site... I don't know what happened to it. I can't load in any pictures or web pages.... bear with me as I am trying to get it fixed.... If anyone knows why it's doing this, kindly let me know..... Catching up has been a little tougher than I thought. As we moved into the latter part of the blog challenge it has been harder to post. Anyone else having that problem? Ok... so I had this pizza recently .... I had no idea it had hot peppers on it.... I was picking off the hot peppers and my mouth was still a little hot.......chalk one up for trying something new ! I will work on this site this week so bear with me on that........Keep going out to do different things outside of your normal routine.... We will be moving into a transitional blog soon. Let's see how these last days go........still have a little time.... Enjoy !

Cracker Barrel always helps...hahaha Day 311 Sat. I was wiped out from getting in at 1 AM.... slept in a little and met up with KC and Danny at the Concert in AC.... George Clinton, Psychedelic Funk.... and local artists too including Angela Barton and Ty Turner.... ran into Robert Williams among others and got him situated with us for a bit. Wall to wall people. The crowd pic only shows a small portion. I didn't think there were that many people in the whole County !!! Some even camped out the night before for this great last concert of the Summer Series... Amazing! Then we all carted ourselves off to a Ray Tyler event where we not only got to chat with the Ray man himself but enjoyed wonderful talent including "Gifted", " Michelle Moseley", "Cierra Ferguson" (THE IRREPLACEABLE ONE) ...to name just a few.... Got home too late for bed for my weekend gig which starts at 4 AM.... just crazy since I'm home.... haven't even unpacked yet!!! Day 312 Sun.

Day 307,308,309 In here for a short time.... Took a ride on the beautiful Lake Gaston. Only get to do that once a year ! It's so amazing on the lake..... Went to a local food store and got pulled pork that they smoke in the back for all of us to have lunch..... cool beans! (well, cool chili) Of course riding on the winding roads of Bracey Va. is always an experience.... Learned a new card game called Chicago Rummy.... will post play directions when I get home.... Enjoy your days !

Days 301,302,303,304,305(Sun.), 306.... Wow, tough to get in here in the midst of travelling. so let's do the cliff notes version until I can get home and fix all the posts with the pictures and all.... So we left Dallas on Wed. and the people I met were amazing.... can't wait to get the 2 biz cards in here to show you...talk about an ENERGY...that story is just cray cray.... Taking the drive home from Texas was quite interesting. Cracker Barrels were our restaurant of choice and I always find something to do in there. ( always see something different when we travel and stop there) Got to play the little "peg" game. Those of you that know what I'm talking about know how addicting it is. I got down to 3 pegs.... (Art made it to 2 and I think Brie was also stuck at 3 along with me). I haven't played that in some time. Got home for 1 day and drove out to Philadelphia to a meeting. On the way, I got to see another mural in town and I also went to a part of Philly I had NEVER been to. Did some more recording on my book . The next day we were headed out to Bracey Virginia to visit our good friends Joe and Cec that we see each year. Each time we come out here there is something different I can enter in here.... So let me leave with all this for now. Will get back in here as soon as I can and as soon as I get home I'll clean all this up and add the pics for you. Enjoy ! PS...Sunday is always our Day of Change !

Days 299 and 300 Wow, breaking the 300th day ! Mon and Tues. were still spent out of State..... Visiting cool places out here in Dallas. That is definitely something I don't get to do every day. Tues., we got to eat in a local Mexican Restaurant. WE found it on line and went to check it out. Very simple little place. What was really interesting is that it sits very close to the landing field of LOVE FIELD.....on our way out, we got to experience a plane coming in for a landing. My heart was in my feet as it looked like it was coming right towards us at warp speed..... Cray Cray !!!! Also went to a store called RETRO and found this wallet with the 2 eyes on it.... looked it up. It's from Buddha religion and symbols meaning the Wisdom Eyes watching over you. How cool is that..... Will have to get photo in when I get home.... Also met a photographer with an interesting business card which made for interesting conversation ! Photo to follow.... And.... took a trip to DMA....Dallas Museum of Art..... very cool ! Enjoy !

Day 296, & 297, Conference is done now. Very difficult to get in the business center and post here. Still have to clean up a couple of posts as it doesn't take the pics. from here too well. Anyway, spent these days doing great things that I don't do that often. I actually spent some time in the pool here.... Last evening, I spent over an hour just sitting out on the veranda near the pool..... left there about midnight or even a little later. I also spent 10 min. lying on my bed doing absolutely nothing.... ( something I'm going to do very soon in Virgina!) Spent 30 min. in a wisdomm circle. WEll, that alone is not something that fall into the criteria for this blog, however...... this particular wisdon circle had women in it from various parts of the Country.... THAT was WAAAAAAY cool. I also got to meet and chat with the beautiful Forbes Riley of infomercial fame...... Not sure when I will be able to post again..........hang in there with the challenge as we approach day 300..... lots of things in store for our next blog challenge......... Enjoy !

Day 295 Wow! Conference is underway and it starts out with such a bang. Sandra and Kym and the whole eWomen Network team have their special touches on this year's conference and on all of us here.... I have already been dazzles by Lisa Larter, Fascinated by Sally Hogshead, Inspired by Hyrum and Wowed by some of the most amazing Women and Men in the Country right here stepping into their power. One of those Women is Mary Lous Luebbe. She first dazzles us with her upbeat and Sassy apprearance and then captivates us with her heartfelt words and demeanor. Mary Lou is recognized as one of America's most experienced and trusted hearing experts. In fact, I just found out that she was asked to do an article for AUDIOLOGY PRACTICES MAGAZINE.... This publication is for the Academy of Doctors of Audiology. You can find out more bout Mary Lou and her amazing work at www.hearohio.com Mary Lou is also one of the co-authors and Amazon best selling author in Succeeding Against All Odds through eWomen Network. Some of our great Success coaches this year include Shaun Stephenson and Sylvia Henderson. I have had the honor of rooming with both of them at conference. What a way to be in the energy zone ! I have spent many a 5 and 10 minutes with amazing re visits and amazing firsts today at the conference. Standing in line I also got a glimpse of Shaun Stephenson and Rochelle as they connect with each other.... shhhhh!!!!.........they are working here.... LOL I met an interesting couple from Colorado Springs. Deborah Lowery is now and Insurance Expert with Farmers Insurance and used to be a model ! Her very nice husband, Birdie, is here as well and he has been to this conference with Deborah 6 times ! Way to go Birdie! Check out Deborah in front of the beautiful Ice Sculpture.... Ana, Diane and myself got to dress up in Great crazy Hats, boas, and sunglasses for a shot on the step and repeat for eWomen Network Socila Advantage.... will have to get that photo for you as soon as I am able.... And..........last but not least..........Met Ellen, Author, Speaker and guide to your inner freedom. Her company is BE HAPPY NO MATTER WHAT and she has been handing out great buttons for us to wear! Of course I have to mention the Swan shaped desserts, the beautiful decor and (one of my favoirte) the Sea Salt scrub in the bathrooms to try out on your hands... OMG! There is no time to slouch here for every minute is filled with awesome insightk......... I'm looking forward to a full day tomorrow with Ken Kragen, Lisa Nichols, Mark Ostrosky and many other speakers.........I'm also looking for the WOW factor that Sandra and Kym Yancey bring to the stage in a special style. Stay tuned for more as I explore things I want to try and things I haven't done in awhilek. Certainly people I have never met as well.............. all with the gift of sharing what the Universe holds for us when we step into our light ! Enjoy !

Day 294 Well spending 10 minutes trying to figure out how to work this darn computer here at the hotel really shouldn't count!!! As you may notice, I try very hard to keep all the posts positive.... to an extent anyway! Day 1 of the Conference was more like a meet and greet. Here a day early and watching people slowly trickle in was interesting. Hotel is not as nice as last year however it is still a great time . Today is the pre conference day and events that some peoople will take advantage of prior to kick off tomorrow. So last night, I spent an interesting hour in the pool area. We were sitting in the jacuzzi (that doesn't really work that well) and meeting new people that were there with us. One of the Women , very unassuming, is in a transition of a new business. Without getting into all that she does, she helps Women from countries where Women aren't really given any rights, to see that they are worth something. She opens their eyes to possibilites and counsels them on transitioning their own lives. Witha a trave and nursing background, she is looking to find a way to take this on the road, even as a non profit status, and heal others...... needless to say it was an interesting time in the jacuzzi....

Day 293

Today I get to see how I did with our "Change" challenge. I will still continue it when I return from this conference, however, I stated at the very beginning that I would be using this for the trip. (at least for some $ in my pocket)

These are the envelopes..... let's see how I did............
A lot of the envelopes had 3.00 in them....and 2 even had 6.00 in them...and one with a 2.00 bill
I spent 10 minutes opening them up

and the total is .............................82.00
Not too shabby !

I will continue upon my return.... now keep checking, posting is going to be a little difficult for the next few weeks but I'll get in here when I can............

Enjoy!

Sunday, Our Day of Change....

Day 292

Day 292

SUNDAY OUR DAY OF CHANGE.............

Tomorrow I will be re capping our day of change and what we are doing. As I previously stated , back in the beginning, I will be breaking into my DAY OF CHANGE tomorrow for my trip !

Yippee !   ( LOL)


Enjoy  !

Day 291  Saturday.....

Ok...so as we approach day 300 I'm thinking about our move forward in the next challenges....

this is what I'm planning..... Once we hit Day 365 we will star a short term challenge to take us to  Jan 1st.... If my calculations are correct, we will hit Day 365 on Oct. 16th.  That gives us the rest of Oct., Nov. and most of Dec. ( take the day off Christmas day and New Year's Day --- LOL) to do our short term challenge..... Let's just give you a little clue  ....... R.A.K......

On Jan. 2nd, we start again with a brand new year and a brand new challenge...... Keep "shoes" in mind for the year coming.....

So that's what I did on Sat. is think about all of this.... Sat evening, I was honored to be a part of the Miss Puerto Rico Atlantic County VIP parade event. at the beautiful Revel Casino in Atlantic City....

We , at 4 A STAR, are so proud of Miss India and Miss Deliana as they represent Atlantic County in their respective titles....
You are both super stars !!!!









 

Enjoy !

Days 288, 289, 290

Ok so here we go.... the week going by like a shot...... going to conference with eWomen Network next week and it's been crazy crazy.... That said, we have broken 7,000 page views....
Monday I will be in here working on our day of Change with all of you and re capping to this point.

It's been a whirlwind and I hope you have found different and fun things to do that maybe you haven't done in awhile or that you have never done !

These past few days I got to begin starting out network marketing company. That is something I have always wanted to do. From ordering the kit bags to putting together the marketing plan, It's been wonderfully crazy. Can't wait to share all of that with you. It's a big undertaking  but something I've always thought about.

Take your thoughts and make them a reality.....

Sat. we will get to something more interesting.... LOL

You can add your own experiences here too ! I would love it.

Enjoy!
