So there I was... sitting at my annual awards last night.

Let me tell you, there is no better motivator than being the ONLY person in the room not to get anything. :eek: Now, granted, I knew I had not done even half of what I did the year before. Actually I thought I would be quite content just doing the part time thing and making a few promotions here and there.

Yeah Right!:grumpy:

This morning I awoke with a new purpose. I am 5 months pregnant, but I decided I am not even going to let that stop me! (First baby.. awww :) )

I thought if I posted my goals here, you wonderful people you might just keep me going. Okay here we go.... I want that trip to Paris!!!! And I want to be a Future Director by convention. I think it a great sign that I will be going in Wave 1 wich just happens to begin on my birthday. :D

Wish me luck fellow cheffers! I have already booked three shows today and a possible two wedding registries for may and June. I sure hope the momentem keeps going!
 
Sounds like you're starting strong! Good luck!!!
