YIPPY!!!!!!!!

I can't believe it, really. I just became a FD this month and had a goal for myself to recruit another consultant by the end of May. I got a call from my very first recruit, who has been gone for just over a year, and she wants to sign up again. I'm SO EXCITED!!! This makes 3 active for me. I have a goal to promote to Director by the end of the year, but now I'm starting to think it could happen sooner rather than later.

You guys should have seen me jumping up and down in my kitchen...my DH and DD just looked at me like I was crazy..hehehe! (However, after sharing the news with my DH, he was just as excited for me).
 
Way to go!
 
that is awsome way to go
 
That's awesome! You just never know when someone will be ready!
 
I'm doing the happy dance with you. Very exciting.
 
That's awesome!! Who knows, you may even promote by July 1st and be able to walk at conference!!!
 
Congratulations! How exciting!!
 
Yea for you!
 
Congrats! How exciting!!!
 
GO - Go - Go !!!!!
