Today in Self deprecation theater, I present:

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... )

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... )

Oh and by the way, if you ever used the old virtual makeover on marykay.com, it is totally new! You can still use the models they provide but now you can upload a picture of yourself and pick everything from your three eye colors individually to lipstick, liners, etc., AND you can put on a hairstyle :) It's pretty cool. www.marykay.com/ldpowell and ( Read more... )

So, with all of the insanity that has been going on regarding getting to Dallas and getting home, I kind of neglected to write about how fantastic Seminar is! I'm really having a great time. Unfortunately, I cannot go to the final session because I thought I was having to fly to NY today, and my flight leaves too early. Supershuttle is coming to ( Read more... )

I'm so stinkin happy for Janice, who is now a Team Leader! OK, I'm also happy for myself. I've never had a Team Leader on my team before. And we get to go to Jeanne Curtis's house during Summit on the 18th! Woohoo ( Read more... )

Seminar was So amazing, and we had such a great time in Dallas. I had not been to Seminar as a director before (last year I was in the hospital with Micah) so I had a really amazing time. Rena Tarbet did one of the trainings for the directors and I was so glad I got to attend it. (Dayam, if she can keep going, what do I have to complain about? If ( Read more... )

Adam posted last night, but here's mine.

We're in Dallas. Yay! Micah was great on the plane, and we were on the same plane as NSD Kendra Crist-Cross (I cannot make that name up) who is one of my FAVORITE Nationals in the whole company. She did my training at Seminar 2 years ago right before I went into DIQ. Love Love LOVE. Anyway, when we got to the ( Read more... )

I have 2 new personal team members this month. That is one more than the total number of personal team members I had last Seminar year ( Read more... )

If you know me, you know that I am the big burning burny girl in the summer.

Well, I just finished my inventory so I decided to take one of our new After Sun Replenishing Gels off of the shelf and see what it feels like. I know, I'm not sunburnt. But it's always good to make sure I'm not allergic to something BEFORE I really need it.

OMG, soooooo ( Read more... )
