Bingo Night

Last night was basket bingo for the army family team building. I don't really like bingo but they promised a good turn out of people so I decided to go to promote my business. The way it works is I put a basket of stuff together that they gave away and then I could have a table at the back.

As I type it souds stupid but I really was set up nice and the turnout was awesome. My babysitter bailed on me. This is the first time in 6 months I have gotten a sitter down here and may be the last time. I have to admit I was very frustrated and mad about the situation. Should I not be doing this? I decided that I should be doing this for my family and got on the phone to a couple girls from church. I found one at 4:00 and said I needed her at 5:00. Her mom dropped her off a little late, but who cares, she came!!

I went and seriously was so excited to go somewhere by myself. When I got out of the car I still unlocked the doors and went to get people out. ( habit I guess)

Got to basket bingo and there were a ton of people lined up at my table in the back. The USAA guy was there and offered me a promoting job (what is the deal with job offers lately). I politely told him maybe (seriously!!) and went to tend to customers.

I had a blast!!! I got 60 customer referrals and some sales. I booked 5 shows and have 2 new team members. Mostly uppercase living because it is so new and exciting but a couple Mary Kay which is my real passion. Again got reconfirmed that I am really good with people. I love it.

I had really let myself relax and was proud of myself for that until I came home and found out the Cera had puked ON the babysitter. She just said that it was fine, but I have a feeling she may not come back. The kids were well behaved but she had to clean up puke, so we will see. I have some more appts these next coming weeks that require me to get a sitter so I am getting on that this morning.

Anyway, basket bingo was a hit and leaving the kids was the cherry on top!!
