We Try to Get Out, They Keep Pulling Us Back In

i can't count how many times we've tried to stop selling Pampered Chef, for one reason or another. Don't get me wrong, the shows we've had were always fun and money we took in was great (it bought us a new laptop, a fence for our patio and helped pay for our trip to Disney a couple of years ago and our San Francisco honeymoon) it just became a little more work than either of us was able to do in addition to our already time consuming jobs and the puppy and Stephen's return to school. Additionally, it became a chore to find reliable hosts willing to take the steps necessary to have a successful (read: $1000+) show.

anyway, after a 4 month hiatus we did a show this weekend (with almost no preparation) for one of stephen's co-workers and a bunch of her nurse friends. a great time was had by all and despite stephen's declaration that we wouldn't book any future shows, if asked, we wound up booking three for September and December.

so much for retirement!
