LOL - this is the 2nd time I've looked through the Aug CN, and just noticed that on page 7, the bottom right pic is of me, with one of the consultants on my team, and another girl from my cluster! I'm the one in the blue shirt, and my new pink PC jacket. I'll have to call them to let them know! :p
 
That is great!!!! I am so looking forward to going to NC next year. I already told my husband that we are going to Chicago, although I may leave him home. hee hee hee
 
Becky, It's to finally 'see' you! :)
 
Congrats Becky on a very nice picture. My director Grace is at the top of your page (letmepamperu13 on CS) and I'm on the next page. I won't admit to it after this sentence because its such an unflattering "in motion" picture (makes me cringe looking at it) but I'd be the one on page 8 catching flies with her mouth wide open in the Whirlwind Shopping Spree booth. (For the record I assume I was either attempting to put tickets in my apron or just pulling my hands out...not sure which. The same horrible shot (only in motion) was on the video at the end of wave 1.)

Kudos again!
 
You're clearly too adorable to leave out. :-)

Oh - that reminds me! First - congrats on winning the Whirlwind Shopping Spree! I hope you got lots of great product.
But seriously, when it says that a few lucky winners grabbed a red ticket and took home a set of Professional Cookware, that is just a typo, right? They weren't actually giving away the discontinued stuff, were they? That must have been Exec. or Stainless....
 
Yes, it was the stainless. And as far as I understood, they had given that away to EVERYONE who won the spree.
 
Way to go, Becky! :)

I don't have mine yet, Laurie - I'm looking at it online. :)
 
Do we get an actual hard copy in the mail? Being new, I have yet to receive one except for the Special Edition one in the conversion kit box. I've only ever looked at them online so I didn't know if we got one directly. When do they generally arrive each month?
 
Most months they're pretty good at arriving the first week. August's is usually a bit late because they want to make sure the NC pictures make it in.
 
Hey! I believe that's Dave of DEB&DAVE on page 8 in the Wirlwind Prodcut Spree booth!
