Sigh... I guess I'll chalk this week up to the weird PC Shows Listings! Tuesday was the Bunco weird feeling show, Thursday was the MIL hijacking me and yesterday... the host's cat, whom she had for 13 years, was staggering across the floor and falling down... she was dying right in front of us... it was SO SAD. The first 2 guests arrived 30 minutes late. I had started my demo with only the host at 1:10. She wasn't paying attention and neither did the two who arrived. Then, at almost 2pm two more show up, when I'm all finished with everything and BEG me to do something again... so I did the rice cripsy in the Exec. Pan again for them... except none of them watched because one of those two was a pet rescuer and she was telling the host that she HAD to go and buy Pedialyte to give the cat to save it. SO THE HOST LEFT and went to the store. I got them to fill out their door prize slips, chose a winner and then had to listen to one of the 30 minute late women complain that she should begiving a prize because they arrived first... I guess she FORGOT she was 30 minutes late herself!!!!!!!!!!!! It's going to end up okay... a bit over 300 with the previous host special being purchased but I'm feeling so odd about it all. The guest present purchased $76 worth.. the rest is outside orders... sigh. I have no more shows scheduled for Dec adn a couple catalog shows yet this month... I feel so bad for this lady and her cat (it didn't make it through the afternoon yesterday, I spoke with her today). As bad as I feel, I still can't believe she left the show... it was IMPOSSIBLE to get the other guests to focus much since they missed most of the demo anyway. I asked them questions... their favorite pieces etc. but ... I'm going to make some calls and try to drum up something for early Dec. I had high hopes to reach level 2 for Nov's incentive. I'm now thrilled that I've made it to level 1!
