As a bonus....I am #5 NATIONALLY for personal sales on the consultant level. :D I am now starting my 8th month as a consultant and can't wait to keep going!!! I have a super start to my trip points and am super excited, if you can't tell :)
Thanks for letting me toot my horn. :p

In Pipestone - Southwest corner. :)
 
AWESOME!! Now, I just need to get my CN so I can read it all....
 
Wow, that is great. It would be nice if I had my consultant news to read. I just received Feb. yesterday. I have emailed HO many times because it just keeps coming later and later. I emailed them last week and still have not received a reply. I am sorry, but getting Feb yesterday does not help me at all.
 
They mail it out media mail, and the postmaster told me that media mail will sit there for weeks sometimes and not go anywhere. My dh said it's like mailing something 3rd class. I know how iritating it is.
 
Congratulations, Jen! I'll be looking for you in my CN whenever it gets here!

So nice to be able to associate a name with someone you know!
 
OOOH, there was a kid on my wing from Pipestone at UND...his name was Tom...Tom something...darn it...what was his last name? I bet you would even know him!!
 
Oh and PS, congratulations! I, too, want to grow up and be you!
 
YAHOOO!!! Way to go!
