Last
February, I was offered a contract job by a friend I had worked with
previously. He needed someone to help
them get ready for a Quality System Certification audit, “probably in May 2012”. Since that is one of the jobs I did in my
former position, and since my dear husband said I NEEDED to do it, I took the
job. Writing procedures auditing
processes to identify area where the company did not meet the requirements for
certification. Not complicated, but
laborious, and dare I say BORING!
It is now
December 4th 2012, and I am still working! Let me say, I am thankful for the income this
job has created. But, my Tupperware and
Biltmore Inspirations businesses have suffered badly. Direct Sales is my true love! I miss having parties, meeting new hosts and
their friends. I am truly a social
person. J
I can see
the light at the end of the tunnel. The final
audit is going to happen in the January – February 2013 timeframe. I’ll be able to go back to my life, and I can
hardly wait!
My
Tupperware business will be there, ready for me to build again. Unfortunately, Biltmore Inspirations is
closing business on Dec. 15th.
So sad… I loved the product and
their party format.
I have
actually started a couple of other businesses, and I’ll place links in my sidebar,
if anyone is curious. It’s a “multiple
streams of income” sort of thing.
But, here’s
the biggest news. We have decided to sell
our home & 10-acre property. It is
heart wrenching to think of doing this, but it is the right thing to do. We waited for years to build our home here,
and we love it. But, the fact is that my
husband is just not able to take care of 10 acres. And, I’m no good on a tractor! At 75, he’s still pretty spry. Not so spry that he can work all day in heat
or cold to maintain the weeds, the buildings, etc.
I hate to
leave, but our 8 years here have been glorious, and some folks never get the
chance to live in the country. I am
thankful for mine.
Now, I’ll
have a new house to search for, decorate & love. The adventure continues…
I’ll be back
soon with some other updates. I hope
some of you will still visit occasionally!
