Is that Sherri Klassen?
Hopefully you'll get it settled.

I had originally gotten on the waiting list and transferred by phone and even had the representative's name I talk to and it still disappeared...

I hope these cases are few and far between!
 
If you need anything later tonight, just yell - I'll be back on CS in a bit. Going offline and trying to call and get a catalog show closed! :)
 
Becky- I spoke to 2 ladies in my cluster and left messages for the other 2. As of right now, we're OK with you ladies joining us. But one of the messages I left was for my Director (can't imagine her saying no, though). Any luck with your upline?
 
Never mind- I just got off the phone with you. :)Have a great vacation and don't worry about it!bagelbagelbagel

This is going to be fun!


and I'd do the "wockwockwock" noise from the Three Stooges - but I'm not sure how to write it!:D
 
you mean "Bwoop bwoop bwoop bwoop"?Now she's saying, "Soup!" which is short for Superbird!

Sooo, it looks like Ann and I may be room-mates! How much fun will that be?

And Ann, it's totally funny that we both had to check CS as soon as we got off the phone!:D
 
We're such nerds, right?!?
 
Now, go pack for your trip!
 
Have fun ladies! So glad you got it settled. :)
 
Becky,

Are you for sure staying with Ann, then? I just got an e-mail from one of the two, and she said their room was let go, but she knows someone else who may have one. Just let me know if you'd like me to continue checking.

Thanks!
 
I haven't heard from 2 of the women in my cluster yet. But I think we're confirmed that Becky and her group will be taking our extra space. The 2 I haven't spoken to yet shouldn't have a problem with it because I'll be the "odd one" (on so many levels) sharing with Becky - the other 4 under my director can all share our second room. And since both rooms are full now, it will reduce our costs all around.
 
Awww..... CR@P!I just got a note from one of the ladies in my cluster I hadn't reached last night, and apparently our SD arranged things in the extended cluster so that we don't have any extra room. Poop! (Not that those ladies now have rooms, but that Becky and her gals are out in the cold again.)

Becky- I know you're leaving today. What do you want me to do to help you? I feel terrible that we thought we had this wrapped up and now it's all unraveled again.

It's okay Ann (Just got off the phone w/ you!)

I emailed Jen back - Sherri Klassen (our SD) thinks she may have a room too - her words - "Not to worry, we will work it out".........
I'm in vacation mode now, so no worries here!;)
 
Have fun Becky. Can't wait for conference!
 
Have a good vacation Becky & I hope everything gets worked out!
 
You are right about Sherri Klassen. She may have a few spots. She is my directors director. I almost roomed with her last year (if I had gone to NC). We are full with 4 otherwise you would be welcome to join us!
 
Hey Paulette - so you're in my extended cluster too - yeah!!!! (I'm in Yvonne's 1st line so I see Sherri's name but never see the others downline from us...)

Cool!

I'll meet you next year at Conference since I changed waves this year! (Planning ahead already...)
 
Kinda cool hugh? Conf next year for me will depend on when it falls. Hubby works Fri, Sat & Sun. No grandmas close by to help. Also Hubby takes off a weekend in August so I can work the fair. I will be happy when the kids are a bit older and it's easier to send them to a friends house.

(although I am doing my best to enjoy them being little! They grow too fast!)
