:D We had our first meeting tonight sence Jan. (and I was sick that night and didn't make it). Was rewarded tonight for having the highest sales in my cluster for the year in 2009!! I was totaly surprised! And really needed that because I've been lacking motivation lately. Guess I better get busy so I can keep my title next year.;)
 
Congrats! :)
 
Congratulations!
 
WTG and nice surprise a couple of months later! Congrats!
 
Great Job! I really make an effort to attend all the cluster meetings I can. I truly feel better & more motivated about my business when I go. At first I thought they might be a little to "rah rah" for me, but it's nice to be recognized for a job well done! Much luck & success to you in 2010!
