Well, I made it back from my 2 week trip to CA and added 2,100 miles to my car :eek: and a total of 28 hours of driving. I had 3 shows to help pay for my trip with my 2 kids ages 8 & 4 and it was all worth it!

I had $2,200 in sales with a total of 4 shows (1 was the 3-day fair I had in OR) and 5 bookings for catalog shows. I will also get the SS pan for submitting two shows this month:D

All that time and I got to see my cousin get married, visited my San Diego family for 4 days and it included a Cluster meeting and to see all the new products and 2 cooking shows. Back to Sanger (Fresno County) to get the new Harry Potter book with my son (8), priceless memories. I read the book in 2 days:eek: and was very pleased with it. I got to see all of my family have lunches with friends and 1 show to end it all.

All in all not a bad trip and it gets paid for with the commission I made and a write off later. I love Pampered Chef!
 
Wow, that was a great trip. What a great way to combine pleasure and business.
