Hello friends and Happy FRI-YAY!!! The beginning of a new month and the end of Daylight Savings Time so don’t forget to FALL back an hour when setting your clocks Saturday night, you don’t want to show up too early for church – lol. This is going to be another busy weekend starting Saturday morning at the Dutch Country Farmers Market and then to a Holiday Open House at The Java House Cafe in Middletown. Sunday morning I will again be up early to go to Chester, PA to do some phone banking for President Obama’s 2012 reelection Campaign.
The color of this shirt was perfect in October for Halloween but it does brighten up a somewhat dreary November Friday.

Hello friends and Happy Thursday, the 1st day of November 2012. Prayers still going up for all those affected by Hurricane Sandy, may God/Allah provide you with much needed strength during this time.
Speaking of time…it is now flying with less than a month until Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday of the year! This transitional weather makes it’s too warm for me to wear a coat but too cold for just a sweater. This morning I threw on a shawl which is actually a large scarf that once belonged to my sister, it’s more than 20 years old yet very timeless. Every time I wrap it around me I can still feel the warmth of my sister’s embrace – RIP Gloria!

Hello friends and Happy Hump Day and Halloween Wednesday.
I am finally back to work after being off since last Thursday and it’s all good in the neighborhood! This denim riveted skirt has been hanging in my closet for almost a year, hubby gave it to me and I love the big side pockets. I was in search of a pair of booties from Goodwill but found these at Rugged Wearhouse for $10.00 (woohoo). I am not overly impressed with the pairing of the shirt, so my next search will be of a plaid to give the outfit a more country look, right now it’s a little Gypsy!

but if you are, be safe and don’t take any candy from strangers – lol!!!

Hello friends and Happy Tuesday. I hope and pray that anyone who was affected by Hurricane Sandy are now home safe and sound resting comfortably. We didn’t suffer any damage due to the high winds or heavy rains and for that I say, Thank You Jesus!!! We did however, lose power for an hour so my sons and I huddled around the iPad to watch Chicago Fire. As soon as the power was restored they scattered back to their video games, oh well, at least we had a little time together!
Cold weather storms are definitely diet blowers and we ate far more than we should have, so this poncho is covering the results. We had an appointment this afternoon and it was nice to get out of the house, cabin fever is no joke.
I love fall clothes that you can just throw on in dreary weather especially when they cover the results of overeating!

On Friday I attended the C.O.R.E. Connect 1-Day Training Event for Direct Sales Professionals sponsored by LaShawanda Moore, MBA, a Professional Business Coach. The training was held at the Christiana Hilton and the day began with a continental breakfast accompanied by networking, exchange of business cards and subtle excitement. There were 13 women in attendance mostly reps for lia sophia, but there was also representation from Miche Bags, Body By Vi, Tiffany Chath Event Planner and Pure Romance. We were all there with one goal in mind, elevating success in our Home Based Business and coach LaShawanda was there to train us.
Each table was arranged with a training booklet, a note pad and a monogrammed pen and tote bag. LaShawanda’s husband was the official photographer and we were asked to sign a photo release as pictures were taken throughout the day. We began with a relaxation exercise to center our heart and mind allowing us to be in full focus and receptive to the training.
The presentation covered many topics including Overcoming Fear, Benefits of Your Offering, Needs of Your Customers, What’s Your Purpose? and Love-marking your customers. It was very interactive with ample time allowed for questions, telling of antidotes, sharing of hints and tips as well as plenty of laughter, clapping and encouragement.
The afternoon session was dedicated to recruiting success, bookings, and selling. There was plenty of role playing, game ideas and overall fun including silly group photos. I must admit that as an Avon Rep I wasn’t sure if this training was for me, but it turned out to be a great investment, it put the fire back into my belly and reminded me of why I chose to have a home based business. I highly recommend this training because it “unlocks potential in women to elevate their success”.

Hello friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday. I am still playing catch up after a busy yet fun filled 3 day-weekend. I was off on Friday so after my mammogram I went to the nail salon and then to Rugged Wearhouse for gear to wear to Sunday’s Breast Cancer Awareness walk. Saturday was Homecoming at my Alma Mater Delaware State University, the classes of the ’80’s were in full force, I saw people that I hadn’t seen since graduating in 1983. The icing on the cake was the beautiful weather for the entire weekend – God is truly good!

Yesterday I received the 3rd and from what I’ve read, the final FREE Beauty Bag from Target. This one is definitely my favorite, a 6″x 5″, vinyl SOHO Beauty Bag in leopard print, perfect for the season and can easily be wiped clean. It wasn’t until later this morning that I realized it matched my OOTD perfectly so I had a co-worker take this picture.
Inside the beauty bag were the following sample size items:

Five years ago, I rushed from Delaware to New York to be late and miss my cousin’s funeral and burial – it was done on purpose…I didn’t want to see her…I didn’t want to say, “goodbye”.
She didn’t fight long but she fought hard!
Damn It – I HATE CANCER
I MISS YOU CUZ – REST IN HEAVEN UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN!
In memory of Debra, I participated in the annual Making Strides to end breast cancer, 3K walk in Wilmington, DE sponsored by the American Cancer Society. I was invited by a friend who is a big supporter of Breast Cancer Awareness and our group’s name was the “Crafty Walkers”. My heart and mind was full and I truly felt Debra’s presence as we walked on a gorgeous Sunday – thank you God. The sea of pink, of men and women; toddlers and teenagers; young and old; black and white; able and disabled all walking, strolling or running for the same cause was a beautiful thing.
Rest in heaven my beautiful Angel.
