Wave 2 for me this year too!
I'd like to meet some of you cheffers at conference. I am currently attending hospitality meetings in my area and have gotten to be friends with the consultants here. However, their conference is #3. Sooo this means I will have no one to hang out with. :eek: Most of the consultants I was friends with from my "home" Cluster are no longer in Pampered Chef. Sad, huh? :(

Debbie, you can request a change of wave from HO to attend with your hospitality cluster, if you have more in common with them than your "home" team.

Thank you, Ann. I did do that last year - I wrote a letter to HO and they let me switch. I just figured they probably won't let me do it again. So I will be a brave soul and go it alone. lol

Ooh- that reminds me, I need to bump the buttons thread. Although I was thinking of making new ones just for fun.
 
I am lucky in that my Hospitality Cluster and my "home" Cluster are both going to Wave 2. I am excited about seeing people from my "home" Cluster there as well. I will get to meet my Home Director at the March 10th Sales Training near Atlanta since she is going that day as well. It will be fun to meet face-to-face with the lady I talk to weekly! :) My Recruiter left the biz last year due to some family issues!

With the big upheaval (sp?) in my life these last months, I'm not sure I can afford to go to NC this summer. It's hard to get excited. HOWEVER,, I have 2 FD's who are hoping to walk. If that happens, I'll simply HAVE to go. Of course, THEN I'd be excited, wouldn't I?Oh my!!! I just thought of something! If my 2 FD's walk, does that mean I'd promote then, too???OK. Now I might just be able to find that ticket money...ETA: No; just re-read the new Career Plan. Will have new requirements 4/1.

Hugs back at ya, Gina! No big hair now. I've been cutting back on non-essentials like haircuts and haven't had one in 14 months.
 
I loved your longer hair at Leadership Ann!
