Just Have a Party, Part II
A few weeks ago, I wrote an essay about just having a party--forgetting about the sales parties and inviting people over to buy things, and just having a party. Drinks. Food. Celebrating being alive.
My friend Maggie decided to take me up on this idea. She had been planning a Scentsy party, and instead of holding it, she cancelled the sales party ( Read more... ) -
What Ever Happened to Just Having a Party?
This is part of my continuing tirade against Mary Kay. Only, this time, it's a little different. It's pretty much about most of the home based MLM businesses out there ( Read more... ) -
Wear the Shift!
I have a friend from college who first did a Kickstarter and is now completely open for business. She makes custom shift dresses that are to your exact measurements, using vintage and/or eco-friendly fabrics. Best of all, she has you do a ton of measurements so it is sure to fit you!
I can't wait to get mine! GO look!

Anyway, working on another Mary Kay post. Hoping to have it done sometime this week. -
In MK, Profit Versus Cash Flow (it's not profit!), Plus, Inventory Woes
I meant to come back here and continue my information about Mary Kay and how it manages to ruin so many people. Then I got busy with my actual job that earns me actual money, so my writing went by the wayside for a while. I actually wrote this one for Pink Truth last week, so apologies if it references anything strictly from PT or appears to be ( Read more... ) -
Some Truth
A few years ago, I wrote an entry for LJ Idol writing about giving up my Mary Kay directorship. I really did feel like a failure, and my friends were all so wonderfully supportive that it really made me feel better. I had not yet announced my intention to go into real estate training. It's hard to believe it's been three years since then ( Read more... )
