Another training tonight, and I’m pretty excited about it. Not the driving part, because this one is kind of far away, but I’m excited to go and see the other jewelry ladies and learn something. I’m not going to lie, I’ve been a little discouraged lately. There are certain things that I need to work on, because they haven’t been going all that well in the last few shows. But mostly, I’m discouraged because there are things that I need to learn not to take personally but haven’t been able to do that yet. So when I do take things personally, it makes it a lot harder for me to stay positive.

This is what I’ve chosen to do, and I love it. I love getting out of the house, and dressing up, and spending time with people. I also love that I feel like I’m earning money for our family without having to spend my days away from them. But maybe some people who know me think that I’ve got other reasons for doing this? Or maybe they think that taking their money is more important to me than their friendship. I don’t know…but I’m working on not thinking about it that way, even if it is true in some part.
