Last night I went to a Mary Kay career night with my friend Roberta, an independent consultant.

I can not even being to tell you how nervous I was. I arrived early because it just didn’t pay to go home and then back again. What a great opportunity; I wish I had done it sooner. I met some great people and even found some potential mew customers!
One woman wanted to put something together for her parent’s anniversary that included their 10 grand children. So I look forward to assisting her build a story book for them. Another was excited because her daughter was in Washington, DC on a school trip. She told me she would love to have one of these but she just was not creative and had even less time. “What I really need is someone who can do it for me”. My response was that could be arranged too. We laughed she walked back to me and we talked about how to get it started. There were a few others who had similar needs and I’m really looking forward to assisting each and every one in their quest to create lasting memories.

Roberta and I went to grab something to eat, but it was after 10:00 pm and everything was closed, even McDonald’s, IHop, & BK. We wound up waiting for 30 minutes to have a sit down meal, but I’m not complaining, because it gave us time to catch up. With one thing and another, we’d not seen each other for many years. We always talked on the phone and kept in touch… but just never were able to get together.

On the way home I took a wrong turn. What should have been a twenty minute drive turned into a 65 minutes drive. Arriving home at 1:36 am, all I could do was drop into bed.

Needless to say I’m tired today, but still luxuriating in the memories that we made last night.
