What a Weekend!

What a busy weekend. I had a class of 25 students (24 women and one male) on Saturday for my Color Insider workshop. The three hours went by so quickly. It was the first time that I had created a 3-hour presentation from start to finish. It is pretty amazing to have that experience. I have taught on other subjects for three hours or more, but never has it been my own material. I am proud of myself.

Before the class, I sliced my thumb pretty badly as I was setting up. The bleeding was terrible. I was afraid that it wouldn't stop bleeding in time. With a few minutes to spare, I wrapped my finger with a paper towel and taught the class that way. It opened up again this morning and started bleeding. Luckily, it didn't get on my WHITE dress!!

A last-minute invitation for a 10-year old's birthday party brought me out to the park with my four-year old niece. She was quite the hit of the party...not with the kids, but with the adults. She is quite the character and the adults loved her. One lady thanked me for bringing her along. How many people thank you for bringing anyone, let alone a child, anywhere?! I've never had it happen. They got such a kick out of her because she was so honest. One woman asked her if she could have her eyes which are blue (the woman and all but one other guest had brown eyes). My niece told her that she could buy them. The adults howled in laughter. It was cute. When another woman asked for a hug as we were leaving, my niece told her that "her batteries were running out." They all laughed again. Yes, she definitely is a part of our family. No mistaking that!!

I had a three-day weekend because I took the day off on Friday. It is always much needed rest from work. I ended up spending time with my mom, sister and nieces. It was so much fun.

I ran into my friend, Linda, on Friday as well. She looks great. She crossed the one-year mark for being Cancer free. It was hard for me to hear that this wonderful, God-filled woman was battling breast cancer. I know that her faith carried her through it all.

Sunday was pretty low-key. I did have a Mary Kay class that I held for a new team member. We had a lot of fun. It was great to have such a fun group of women and an excited team member. She had fun, learned a lot and made some great money.

Matt came over to sleep last night. I say "sleep" because he didn't get here until 1:30 AM. I was awake as I went out with Kim to have a drink and appetizers. That was my dinner, too. Kim and I laughed so hard about so many things. I love to see her laugh because her whole body laughs. We need to do that more often.

I am off to bed. I am planning some Turbo Jamming tomorrow. It'll be a Cardio Party 3 day for me.
