It's been ONE WEEK since I arrived in Tokyo (where the military just moved us). I've had one potential that I spoke to prior to the move from Okinawa decide to sign & TWO indirect recruits sign! Three new team members in Okinawa in the one week that I've been in Tokyo! That makes 17 in my down line thus far. I have one in the process of letting her time expire, as she's having a difficult time with her pregnancy and this is no longer a priority. All the rest are working it! #4, #5 & #6 all joined the same week at the end of Feb. So we've REALLY been booming the last 5 months!

Okay, I'll admit it ... that's not a self portrait. I'm not a blond and my eyes are green. ;) I will, however, pretend that I'm that skinny and that my boobs are that perky! Bwahaha!
 
YAY!!!!! :party:
