I'm waiting to hear back from some of my director's group to see if we want to cluster together (hehehehahahahohoho) for tours and such. You agenda looks pretty much what I'm looking at. If I sign up for home office tour #2 will you promise to not move to another tour?

Only if you promise to take a shower that morning! I hear you guys can get pretty stinky when you have been out partying all night!!!

Maybe, one of us should hold up a "Cheffers" sign at the line?

I'm annoyed. There's 9 seminars I want to take.

So now I have to figure out which ones are most likely to end up on CD-ROMS and not sign up for those. ;)

I did the Cooking Show Live last year and found it to be kind of boring, they didn't say anything I didn't already know, I can manage my time pretty well and there will be lots of talk about the new products and cool things to do with them on here after we all get back...that's how I decided.

I couldn't decide which HO tour since I missed out last year. Do I take the first one and get ahead of the crowd and get to eat a leisurely lunch, or do I sleep in a little bit and hope to have time to eat lunch. Ughh, i figured since I will have to take a late flight to get there i might as well sleep in.

Hope to catch up with some of you.

I signed up for the first one so I can take a nap on the bus.I wonder how much overlap there is between Double Digit Recruiting and Recruit With The Stars?

They feed you lunch for the HO tour...that's what part of the $25 if for.
 
I knew I read it last year that it included a sack lunch but I looked and looked and looked again to see if it said it this year and I couldn't find it anywhere. And wasn't it $20 last year for the tour??

I don't remeber what the cost was last year, I registered too late to get a tour but I did see the lunches and they looked really good...thought about swiping one but thought better of it in the end!
 
It looks like I will be joining you sooner fans on the tour, my hubby will be so jealous, maybe I should wear a KU shirt, ;) lol.

Or breakfast for that sunrise tour?
 
I can't wait till conference!I just got back from a family camping trip, was supposed to be back yesterday, however we got stuck in Reno due to snow in the sierras. It snowed 4 inches in Reno, and 22 inches in Truckee. It was a slow haul pulling our toy hauler and a two year old who didn't want to sleep.
But the first thing I did was sign up and here it is:

Then I listened to my machine and received an order from a lady who got my number from the health club, and a past host who wants to host a show in may. Her last show a book party was over 800 in sales. Yeah for me, just had to share, it looks like some of us have the same classes!:D

Only if you wear a Cheffer hat.

(Of course, that assumes that we have some made, I suppose.)

I am seriously thinking of making a sign that says "Are you a Cheffer?" to hold up at each class so some of us can finally get a chance to meet! Or we could just hold up KG 'cause I have a feeling we will all know him when we see him!!!

It wouldn't be worth it to hold me up. I don't carry credit cards and I don't have that much cash.

You have a quick wit about you...just like my hubby, I have to watch what I say when you are around...:rolleyes: :D ;)

I'm just wired differently and hear things in a way other people don't. When someone says, "How do you feel?" I just automatically say, "With my fingers."

On Sunday, during the Children's Message, the pastor asked the kids, "Do you know what a symbol is? What is a symbol?"

When I was a kid, I would have smashed my hands together, crashing imaginary cymbals. I was so disappointed that none of the kids did that.

Shari and I were waiting for our director to get back to us yesterday b/c she was going to tell us what she thought we should take. We waited and then this morning Shari sent her reg. thru a few min before me.. home office tour was closed. I submitted mine and I got thru. Shari called the home office and they told her I would probably get a call stating it was filled. I dont understand how that could happen. If she submitted her show first then why would it allow mine to go thru?

Does stuff like this normally happen?

I told Shari from now on (in upcoming years) we just go ahead and book w/o waiting. Its our fault for waiting for our director but it just makes it more frustrating.
 
My scheduleI hope to meet some of you - it looks like there's a few of us on the tour together. I hope at least one of us wins the shopping spree!

Hi Tina!

During the past couple of years, there were stand-by lines. Several people I know did not have reservations for the Home Office Tour, but were able to go. Just make sure you get to the lines a little early.

Home Office Tours All Booked UpI can't believe they are booked up already? Do you think they will add more?

I waited 2 days to register last year and didn't get the tour, that's why I went ahead and registered ASAP this year. I tried to do the standby thing last year as well, ended up sitting on the floor waiting for hours just to not get in. My advice to all of you who are going to try to do standby...get there REALLY early and you might get in.
