Jan 18th Randomness

Why is it that when you decide that you're not really going to actively TTC your AF decides she's going to take her sweet time showing up?
Just something that I've been wondering about the past couple of days....
And onto some housekeeping items...
A co-worker of mine held a Silpada jewelry party back in November. She then signed up to sell it and convinced me to have a party for her. So..on the 23rd I will be hosting a party at my house. I'm getting all stressed out about it though and am starting to worry that people won't like my place. Or won't come. And there are quite a few that aren't coming. Of the 30 people that I invited, only 4 have actually confirmed that they are coming. Do you think that if I promise to ply them with lovely alcoholic drinks they'd be more likely to come? ;-)
I've looked into the course that I want to take and I think I'll register for the first class starting in February. I still have to figure out the exact order that I'm taking things in but I'm pretty excited about this! And I found a part time job that is sort of in the field of this course, but just lower on the totem pole and pay scale. So, I might quit one of my part time ones and see if I can get this other one which would give me tons of practical experience. I think all the money that I make from weddings this year will be going towards courses.
And speaking of weddings...I now have 5 booked. Not as many as last year. And it still is early in the year so there will probably be more. I've kind of been procrastinating on doing actual advertising. Not sure if I should or just keep it free and from word of mouth. I tend to doubt myself when it comes to my floral design and my ability to do a business which I think has kept my business from growing the way it could have.
I know there were a couple of other things I wanted to write about but I can't for the life of me remember right now what they were. Oh well, it might just mean that you get 2 posts in one day from me if I do remember!

  1. I've tried several times before to have various parties and they've never went well and yet crazy me at one point signed up to sell rubber stamps. Not such a good plan. I usually refuse to book any parties any more. Good job on the weddings booked. I hope they go well.
