Xmas in July

Well on Saturday night, Matt and I held our first annual Christmas in July!!! We had 21 of our friends over for a 4 course meal and it was lots of fun!!!
I woke up saturday morning about 9am and literally did not stop all day!!!
For starters I had made a selection of dips, the favourite would have to be the spinach dip in a bread cob, I also made mini dim sims (Which were also a hit!) and proscuitto wrapped stuffing balls.
Entree was Pumpkin Soup, which I had to serve in Mugs as I do not have enough bowls and couldn't be arsed buying 2 lots of plastic bowls!!! for mains we had Roast pork, beef, lamb and chicken, with roast potatoes, onion, pumpkin and carrot with peas, broccoli, corn on the cob with gravy, cheese sauce and apple sauce, it was quite a feast!!!
Dessert was apple pie and christmas pudding with cream and ice cream. We even did kris kringle presents, I ended up with a plunger, that you would use for unblocking drains and some glow in the dark naughty dice, it was quite hilarious as we didn't actually assign names, so people just bought gifts to the value of $5.00. I was relieved once all the cooking was done and we decided that next year we will assign people to bring certain things, to make it easier for me!! Everybody helped do the dishes, which was good, but my house looked like a bomb had hit it the next morning!!!
Plus I was exhausted as Will and I stayed up till 5am talking!!!! Matt piked!!!
when I woke up at 1pm on Sunday I turned to matt and said " I want a hamburger!" So I managed to get dressed and went and got hamburgers, chips, coke and 3 powerades and we sat and watched season 1 of Sponge bob squarepants while enjoying our hang over cures. I managed to fall asleep on the the li-lo and when I woke up Matt had cleaned!!! I couldn't believe it!!! We still have yet to vacuum and mop, but that was the least of my worries!!!
So overall it was a great night, even if I did have a massive hangover the next day!!!

I really should be working now!!

Well what a week I have had!!!!
OK so this time last week I was at Mary Kay Cosmetics Annual Seminar held at crown Towers!!! Matt stayed in the hotel with me and it was really nice except for the fact that I was really sick!!!! Matt gave me his cold and it was so not nice!!! The seminar was excellent though and I learnt so much!excited about what this new Mary Kay year will hold for me!!! I saw all the successful women up on stage and really wanted to be up there!!! Next year I want to be on stage for Sales court!!! So to be on there I have to sell $45,000 in one financial year!!! If I do that I will get to walk across stage and receiver a Diamond ring!!! Plus with commission of 50% it is win win either way!! So I have some big goals ahead of me, but I know I can do it!!!
The Queen of Unit sales was a lady called Marilyn Schirmer. This woman is amazing, she came from a abusive marriage with 4 children and ended up living in emergency housing!!! She joined Mary Kay about 7 years ago and hasn't looked back since. She now earns in excess of $100,000 a year and has just built her dream home in Byron Bay (She used to live in Mackay, QLD). Her unit did in excess of $700,000 which is amazing, especially since we have been in such a drought!!! So she won 3 diamond rings, earrings and a trip to Canada and Maui, for herself and her husband all expenses paid by Mary Kay!!!! Wow it just blows my mind!!! I have to say that I work part time for the best company in the world!!! All this for enriching women's lives!!!! I just love Mary Kay!!!!
