    Morning Sickness at Show --Help!

    Well if the flu also makes your boobs hurt then I'm all set for an alibi! Yeah I think I'm going to end up being MIA and just leaving them catalogs, maybe some early Christmas ideas etc.

    Morning Sickness at Show --Help!

    Yelling at DH seems to help. Maybe I should try yelling at him to get me some crackers and ginger ale! I have not tried those yet. Even swallowing the prenatal vitamin makes me feel urpy.

    Morning Sickness at Show --Help!

    Maybe okay, I'd have to practice it first. Thing is, she will have a whole buffet of party food sitting out for her guests anyway. I'm afraid just walking into the house will be the end of me!

    Morning Sickness at Show --Help!

    Ok, Nancy (Nanisu) Had Posted in Another Thread About Roaches at a

    Re: Roaches???I'm so relieved to read about others who are as terrified of roaches as I am. I would have to absolutely walk away. As far as the comments above on the vermin found in restaurants, with little response from the employees, oh yeah I'd be contacting the City Health Department to...

    Successfully Hosting a Show with a High Maintenance Host

    It is almost like it is a rite of passage in PC-world to have a show like that. And by "that" I mean high maintainance hostess, unconfirmed plans or "fictional" plans, the whole works. I have my own story where I ended up in the corner of a living room trying to do a demo while competing for...

    Dealing with Difficult Hosts: How to Handle Rude Behavior

    I don't think I would do it at all. I've had my share of rude hosts even in the measley 20 shows I've done, and it just is not worth the abuse. I'd rather use the time networking and booking decent shows.

    May Specials - No Pink Items Again? Let's Discuss!

    I was shocked too to learn today that they are still just picking shows from April 30. My May 3rd show doesn't have a chance!

    Have you tried using door hangers for advertising in your neighborhood?

    You might check with your City ordinances on that...and also with your HOA if you plan on using them in your own neighborhood. As HOA President in my neighborhood- I have fielded TONS of questions from our homeowners who generally are not happy to get these on their doors or cars. Door...

    Should I Show Up with My Donation for the School Carnival?

    I laugh when people try to tell me they are busy. Too busy to hit the "reply" button? ;) Anyway, she did email me today asking if I could drive the set over to the school. No mention or apologies for not returning any of my calls or emails. I kindly told her that I only could on Saturday...

    Where Can I Buy Affordable Yard Signs for Advertising?

    It would be wise to check your city ordinances and also your HOA for posting of signs. I know they are forbidden in my City and in my neighborhood...of course people still do it....but I wouldn't want to be caught!

    Round Stone W/ Handles -- Cracking?

    Makes me wonder if the shipping and handling have any part to play too...some of my shipment boxes arrive pretty beat up. Funny how my returns on stoneware went up dramatically after we switched from UPS. Just sayin'....
