My Day Today

Today I had the opportunity to participate in a "Family Fest" at a local school, during which I had an Avon table in the vendors area. I landed up making $82 today, not too bad. Plus I had 4 orders totally about $100. Yaay!!! I treated myself to gourmet garlic and cheese fries...YUMMY! And bought myself a necklace, so I landed up with $62.00 total.

Yesterday I actually opened up my own personal checking account so I can keep track of my Avon expenditures and earnings without choking up our joint checking account. I am quite pleased with my progress today, I think I did really well. Even though I did not make a fortune, I reached a lot of potential customers and I am sure that will generate more sales. Yaay for me!!

Today was a nice, kid-free day for me. I was able to farm off all the kids to various friends of mine and theirs, and got 8.5 hours by myself! The three older kids were not happy to see mommy, they wanted to stay at their friends longer. lol. But my baby was happy to see me at least, and informed me that she saw "sheeps" (my friend who watched her has 6 sheep), and that she liked playing with her daughter. While I am writing this, and my pizza is cooking for dinner, she just said to my eldest "I tell mommy!". Apparently the 7.5 year old and the 2 year old are bickering. lol

I am going to have a nice relaxing evening and try to fold some laundry, which I am terribly behind on.

Life Update

Well, I've been posting a lot the last couple days! Does anyone want a bit of a life update? lol

Karate was tonight again, but I think we've decided to withdraw both the girls. When we signed up, the classes were free because we have a full family membership with the YMCA. I did not think it would be anything really structured, but I guess I was wrong. Now the "coach" is insisting that all the kids have a "karate suit". (forgive me, I don't feel like findout how to spell "sensai" and "gii" properly, unless I just did it). The coach is ordering the, and is charging $35 a piece! I have three kids!!! In no way was this told to us when we signed up, so I am a bit fed up with them sliding this in after the kids start. The girls don't really want to continue with karate anymore, so we will probably just keep the boy enrolled. The girls want to start swimming lessons, but since we are late for this session, those will have to wait till next month for the summer one. Life sure is crazy with 4 kids!

Something exciting going on for me, is that I was asked to do a table at a school bazaar. An Avon table. I was hesitant at first because it is something that is totally new to me, but I found childcare for all 4 kids, and my Avon lady (the one that I signed up under) has offered me her expertise and is lending me a ton of stuff. Plus she has extra product that I can sell and split 50/50 with her! I am hoping it goes well because I have the opportunity to make at least a few hundred dollars. This event is on June 7th, so I have a few weeks to prepare. You'll all have to wish me luck!! And if anyone is interested in ordering from me, I do have free shipping codes. Just ask me for one!

I wrote about Avon a couple weeks ago in this post.

Online ordering with Avon is so easy! You can visit my personal store, www.youravon.com/joannabender 24/7 and order at your convenience. I use mostly Avon products, and I have never been happier. They have a new mascara that just came out called "Super Shock". It is fantastic!!! I love it. I have been "Clinique only" in the past, and though I do use some clinique products still, I am fully converting to Avon for this mascara. I love it that much. It makes my lashes full, and long and just gorgeous!
Avon has also started selling mineral makeup. Although I haven't yet tried it, I did order it for myself and it will be arriving in a day or two. I will update then!

Our SkinSoSoft products are now 50% off, so you can stock up for the summer and get more bang for your buck. And if you order $15 worth of mineral makeup, you receive a FREE makeup bag to store all your new products in.
