Grandmother Betty

Please keep my husband's family in your prayers. His grandmother went to be with Jesus on Sunday.  She was 87 and it was expected but still very hard on them all. Grandmother Betty always told it like it was. She found my son to be hilarious and always told Brent that he had a "pretty" wife. She made it to our wedding back in 2009 but then began going downhill. She was determined to live to see Brent's son. In doing so, she made her sons bring her to the hospital to see Jackson when he was two days old. I believe she was partial to my sweet husband. It's been a tough day around here and I know the coming days will bring tears and happy memories of the fun times they had growing up with their grandparents.

Teething trouble

Poor Jackson had a rough night last night. He went to sleep in his bed and lasted there about two hours. He woke up crying so I made the mad dash upstairs in the dark to rescue him. When I got to him, he clung to me for dear life. He then proceed to cry and cry and cry for what seemed like eternity. Poor baby is getting a molar and he's not impressed by it at all. Brent finally took his temp around 12:30am and t was 101.7. We gave Tylenol and within an hour Jackson was sweating as if he'd ran a 5k. Around 2am we realized the three of us in one bed would not end well. I took Jackson to his nursery and rocked him until he finally passed out again. He and I then spent the rest of the night in the guest room upstairs. Every hour or so he'd cry out in pain. It was hard to soothe him. I'm hopeful that tonight is better

To top it off, he's got a smashed finger! It looks like a big. Loos blister on the end of his pinky. I have no idea how he did it. I face timed my EMT brother-in-law's to confirm that the boo boo was non-pinky threatening. They assure me that unless the blister continues to swell we will not need to pop it. The thought of poking my sweet boy with a sterilized needle was too much for this mama!

Goodnight all!

Why AdvoCare

If you haven't been under a rock you've noticed that I've had several posts about AdvoCare lately. It's because I'm so excited about my new opportunity and want to share the info with anyone who will listen.

For starters, I was SO skeptical. I wanted no part of this. I wouldn't even go to my best friends mixer because there was no way she was dragging me into this scheme of hers. Fast forward 3 months and the itch got me. I needed to lose 5-10lbs, I needed to break my Dr Pepper habit, and extra money sounded nice. I placed my first retail order (dumb mistake) and did the ten day cleanse and started spark. I was hooked! I had to order more... Only this time I did my distributorship which saved me 20%. I WISH I'd did this WITH my FIRST retail order (that was my dumb mistake).

I'm feeling better, looking slimmer (I'm down 6.5lbs) and have more energy. I want to tell anyone who will listen about this because I'm making $. I'm using products. Things are going good. This isn't a cult, this isn't a fraud MLM, it's a group of nice people who just happen to use direct sales to help those that want to use product make some cash while getting a discount. It's as black and white as that.

If you're even remotely interested, please leave a comment or message me. I'd love to have a friend tell you about how she went from $5 to $30k and is set to hit approximately $86k this year.

You're investment can be as small as $79 (with $50 of free product and an automatic 20%) or as bold as $2100 for $3k of product with an automatic discount of 40%, advisor status, and set to earn back profit of $900 once you sell those products.

I'm so fortunate that I joined under the group I did. Our team leaders LEAD and help you see what it takes to turn this from a discount to extra $ in your pocket bi-weekly. I'm here to help. Here to share. Just ask!
