OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I was on the phone with Stampin Up and one of the SAMs (service account managers) told me how close I was to hitting a HUGE SALES GOAL….Just short of $2500 away as of 6pm last night….I had done a workshop the night before and Kris was coming to close her workshop (A HUGE THANK YOU, KRIS and all the ladies who were at her party!!)  And I had a class last night with a bunch of people signed up, and then Pam (my dear friend had a catalog workshop and she is closing it today) so I got this CRAZY notion in my head that I might just do it!!!!!  So, while I was holding my Brides and Babies Class, I started calling people on my customer list…The ladies at class were so sweet to let me do this…I think they were excited everytime I hung up and proclaimed, YIPPIE in a scary high-pitched voice!!

This morning, I teared up when I opened my email and there was a SUBSTANTIAL order from Joni…I told her I could kiss her in my email back to her (I hope she doesn't think I am totally crazy as I don't know her very well)…so here we are….I am just $907 away as of this minute….and so I had to put my "Oh my gosh" gauge on here for you…I am doing it old school….I am certain there is a fun, easy way to make this on the computer, but I can't do that right now! 🙂

I just have to say to each of you who have supported me this year: Customers with orders, Downline with participating in my group, Family who supports me all the time, my SAM (and the other SAM's at STampin Up who cheer me on) to my fellow demonstrator friends who are so awesome to me….THANK YOU!! I am so excited to be in this position (actually I am feeling kind of nauseous right about now…it reminds me of when I was waiting to find out if I got my Pink Bag 2 years ago!!  Read about it here:

I'll keep you posted…I've got until 2pm (leaving for Andy's Work Awards dinner that is 3 hours away tonight)….Again, thanks so much!!!

So, if you are in need of any products (whether it is just a bottle of adhesive or 10 stamp sets, every single bit helps)…please call or email me to place your order…I'll have a special treat for you as a thank you!!

Hope you have a great day!!  I'll keep in touch with my progress!!
