Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday
There are only a few traces of yesterday’s snow and according to the meteorologist, Mother Nature will be having a hot flash so all that remains will be melted by Friday. It’s tough for people not to accept the existence of Global Warming especially with all of these varying weather conditions around the world. Al Gore has been speaking out for years, now just maybe people will take him more seriously. Okay, stepping down off the soap box.
Most of you know that I love…love…love…shoes and will be the first to admit that I have too many, but it’s not something new, I have been a shoe lover since High School. I’ve always had to have the latest styles in different colors…pastel pinks…mellow yellow…aqua marine blue….heels…flats…sandals…boots – I loved them all. These days I don’t buy as many as I used to but when I find a bargain, I am on it like a heat seeking missile (remember the Target haul?) Because I have so many I can’t remember ever wearing the same pair two days in a row that was until today, this is the first time. There are two reasons for this, first I am still trying to get my closet in order and secondly, these Granny boots are comfortable and look cute with this outfit!

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve
Are you ready for some snow? If so, “tonight is the night…is the night…is the night” at least it’s supposed to be in southern Delaware. Fortunately, they are forecasting less than an inch so the commute home may not be too bad.
Today’s outfit, Black and Burgundy is featuring a pair of Merona pumps and Mossimo belted pencil skirt from last night’s haul at Target.

If you follow me on Instagram (ablake48), you’d know that I start my mornings with a healthy, green, breakfast smoothie. Today’s smoothie was made with spinach, carrots, banana, almond milk and Chia Seeds.
I am so loving these heels, I may stop and get another pair in Taupe!

Hello Friends and Happy Friday Eve!
In less than 1 year I have written 500 blog posts. In all honesty when I first started DeDivahDeals I didn’t write much, I still don’t, but according to my WordPress stats this is my 500th post!
cue the fireworks and confetti drop
500 posts is not a cause for a big celebration but next month on my 1st year Blogiversary it will be so get your party clothes ready!
Woot Woot!!
These Madden Girl pumps are my favorite shoes, not only are they comfortable but the Polka Dot bows remind me of Betty Boop and who doesn’t love that 1930’s PinUp Girl?

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday
Being the sleepy head that I am, getting up every week day at 6 am definitely does not give me a thrill. However, once I’m up and moving the situation greatly improves especially when I see God’s Glory. Waking up to a beautiful day provides the motivation to have a prosperous one and I hope it’s the same for you.
The rays of sunshine across the frost covered grass gave me pause to stop and say, “Thank you God for another beautiful day”!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday!
Now that the holidays are over and everyone is back to school and work we are now looking forward to the first major snow storm of the year. If I had it my way it wouldn’t hit until late March and then a quick thaw straight to Spring! I hope your Hump Day is progressing nicely and that you are not trying to cram 5 days of work into 3, but if you are, stop…take a deep breath and say, “the weekend is almost here!”
Belt or not?
I didn’t wear it to work because I felt it would take away from the necklace, what do you think?

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday
It’s a warm December day in the Delaware Valley and I hope it’s the same “in your neck of the woods” – I love Al Roker! Saturday my girlfriend told me about her daily Zumba workout so last night I pulled up some YouTube videos and tried it. Man oh man it was an awesome workout, I loved it and will definitely try it every night to fight off these excess lbs that have attached themselves to my body!
Today’s outfit is almost totally thrifted, the blouse, skirt and shoes were all thrifted from Goodwill
Reversible Two-Tone Belt – Avon // – Necklace & Earring Set – Jewelrymax.net // Watch – Joan Rivers Collection via QVC outlet
This afternoon, I may pull out my sneakers from under my desk and go for a brisk walk.

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”.
