Hey everyone,

as you all know last month I was pretty fed up with PC and ready to quit. I was given some advice to take these last couple months off and re-organize everything in my life. well i have done that. I did the monthly craft show the day after thanksgiving and ended up with two possible shows for january and over $150 worth of sales!! Some was from here in Miss. and one was from Conyers, GA!!! I was excited over that but didnt think about it a whole bunch. Well last night after drama practice one of my past hosts came up to me and said hey I have $200 worth of orders here that I have been collecting on when can you get them turned in and back to me? I about fell over in the floor because I havent been pushing PC!! So its funny to me that when I AM trying I cant get any shows or orders and when I WASNT trying i ended up with $350 worth of orders!! Know who will tell me that God doesnt work in mysterious ways!! anyways just thought i would share with everyone how things have been turning around for me!! Know if i can book a couple shows i will be off to a good start again!!!!
 
That is great. I'm so happy for you.

I place all my faith in God in everything I do, and he does work in mysterious ways, and all I have to do is, let go and let God. And though things are slow right now, I have full faith that things will pick up when I least expect it.

In short, have faith. :)
 
I'm also happy for you Monica! It's a lesson for us all. We don't always know what our path is but if we open our hearts He will show us the way!

I have stumbled many times but He is always there to pick me up and show me which fork in the road to take.

Good luck to you!
