bad day

Exactly why would I choose to homeschool, be a housewife, and try to run a business from home? Today, I don't know. I feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and ready to just give up. My husband is in tremendous pain and working so hard, to the detriment of his health and I just wish this business would take off faster than it has. The boys are starting cabin fever early. One kid wet his bed and then the dog, somehow, got on my bed and peed on it which of course I didn't find till I was ready to make the bed. So now I'm doing laundry at 7:30 at night and had to make the bed with mismatched sheets. I just wish wish wish the business would take off. Instead I'm moving through molasses. St. Theresa said, "Let nothing disturb you; nothing frighten you. All things are passing. God never changes. Patience obtains all things. Nothing is wanting to him who possesses God. God alone suffices." And they say God never gives you more than you can handle. Between the refinance, my husband's blood clot, 3 boys, homeschooling, the economy, building a business, I hope it's not more than I can handle.

WooHoo

Well, I have a new lead for Monday. My drip list is certainly getting long! My aunt is looking at being a business builder. I got someone to enroll in January (ergh). My cousin is being a sloth. Well, slowly but surely. What did the tortoise say? Slow and steady wins the race????

Contact!

The first step in my business is to create a contact list! AARRGH!! This is harder than it seems. While I have contacted my family and friends, some are hard to get back a hold of! With Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up, I know people are getting busy and this has got to be the hardest time to set appointments but all I need is 10 minutes! I'm really pushing for director this month, and I need 4 more people and then next month my check is $500 which will be a nice chunk of change! By the end of November I hope my posting is because I reached Director!
