I'm back!
Getting ready for summer, and hope to start posting valuable information here soon!

Help for Applying Eyeshadow is here!

Only $5.99 on my online Avon Store.  This eyeshadow shows you exactly where to apply each color!  How can you go wrong? 

Comes in 4 different sets of colors (each with 4 shades that compliment each other and go with any skin tone!).  At $5.99, I think its a true bargain.  I have very fair skin, and all color combinations would work with my complexion and eye color.

is there something wrong with the Earth's gravitational pull today?

Today has just been one of those kinda days.  At work, and I have had someone call to ask for directions to the Post office.  Okay, I understand we are a real estate company, but you can get our number quicker than the Post Office's?  Really?
Not one person has pulled into our parking lot and actually parked in a real parking spot.  I've had someone pull up and park between our building and our neighbor's --almost exactly in the middle (which happens to be a roadway that leads to the parking lot.  No one could get in or out while this person was parked).  I've also had someone come and park perpendicular to our building, slightly tapping it as she parked, like we were a tirestop or something.  I only felt it because her car was right outside my desk's window.  Ouch.
Oh, and let's not forget the gentleman who called and asked for help buying a property.  He put in an offer with his agent, who happens to not work in our office, and we don't have anything to do with the property, but he wants to apply for a federal grant to get money back.  Again, sigh, Really???  Ask your agent or ask the government.  I have no knowledge about anyone buying any property with cash for profit as an investor getting free money from the government.  Sounds like an infomercial, though!

Okay, rant over.  Thank you for reading.

Frank is not a morning doggie!

Its not too late for online holiday shopping

Anne Burrell- say it ain't so!

Have you been watching the Next Iron Chef on Food Network?   Anne Burrell was my favorite and I was rooting for her, well, was... she got booted off on Sunday night!  Everyone on there competing is wonderful, but I was very sorry to see her go.  On the bright side, she does have a best seller out....and I want it!  Do you have it?  Amazon.com has it on sale!!

First Snow

Yesterday was our first snow in Crown Point.  We had a mix of wind, rain and snow, but nothing stuck to make a pretty white layer on the frozen and wet leaf covered grass. 
I will say, however, that it reminded me I need to put my newly knit slouchy hats on my etsy store.  The cold wind is brutal to my ears, and I love hats!  Pictures to come soon, they are super soft, very thick and very warm.  A bit of slouch and a nice puffy ball on the top!

I have 100 Avon catalogs I am passing out and delivering on Saturday morning---email me if you want one!

Christmas Shopping books are out!

Guess what?  Avon's Christmas themed books are out!  This week, I am planning on delivering the Christmas 2011 Avon gift guide, filled with ideas.  After going to the Representative's Holiday Open House event, I must say my absolute favorite "safe" gifts are slippers (Avon's women's slippers are super comfy and cute!), bath sets, and costume jewelry. 
Please take a moment to view all the great items Avon offers at my website, http://www.cpavoncalling.com/.  I love being an Avon Representative, and I love this time of year!  Tons of stocking stuffers!  Free shipping with minimum purchase...don't go to the mall this year! 

35

Monday I turned 35.  Yesterday, I went to realage.com and took the quiz, and found out I am 35.4 years old with my lifestyle.  I can get this number down, I know it.
The days of getting carded are over.  When AB and I went to Vegas this month, I didn't get carded once.  My young skin is starting to age, even with the help of a great skin care routine.  I think stress is the main blame here, but the only way to reduce that is to start a new life. 

Summer is gone

Well, that's it.  I think summer is over.  I woke up this morning and just knew it happened.  Last night, it was dark out by 8 pm.  This morning, the sun didn't rise until after 6 (at least it felt that way).  Its getting darker earlier and light out later.  I don't like it one bit.
Where did it go?  I already miss summer.  I feel like I didn't get to do as much as I wanted.  No days at the dunes, no water park.  No amusement rides, no road trips.
This morning, AB and I were walking little doggie and talking about summer.  I think there was too much work and not enough play this summer.  Of course, we did make it to las vegas for a couple days, but it was such a hurried trip, we were exhausted when we came home.  Even that trip was too fast. 

In a feeling of lost summer, I blurted out that my life is half over...and then I started realizing that yep, I'm almost 35.  I am about at mid life here!
I have been in a panic most of the day about this, and its just depressing. 

Oh my-- oh my!

I have really lagged on this site, haven't I?  Well, that needs to change!

On a good note, I have already gotten a whiff of the Avon Christmas/Winter catalogs--- all I can say is "Yes, I want that...and I want that...oh, isn't that cute?"

I will be hosting an awesome Avon event coming up in early October.  There will be previews of the Tiny Tillia line for baby goodies and also Holiday previews, as well as good giveaways, bingo, and awesome deals.  Please stay tuned, I am working on booking a hall now for this amazing event.

Can we Make America Beautiful?

Every morning I walk my dog, Frank, and we come across some part of the neighborhood that is an absolute mess.  People pollute and throw trash out all over, they don't even care its on their lawns, which really irks me. 

Let's make America beautiful-- one block at a time!  Take pride in your lawn.  Don't throw out trash on the street or sidewalk.  The Wendy's across the street from me always has trash in the parking lot, and the crazy thing is the employees go out there to clean it up once or twice a day!  People are just self-obsessed and blind in what they do really impacts and affects the neighborhood or city.  

I am going to make it a point to clean up my block this spring.  Are you up for a challenge?  Messy sidewalks NO MORE!!  Poor Frank can't take it!!

trying to update my life!

I think I have over extended myself.  Its a tough realization when i wake up from a dream more tired than when I went to sleep.  Last night, I had a dream I was shoveling gravel at my parents home, and when I awoke, I was sore, tired, and my back hurt!  Very weird, and a sign I need to r e l a x .

So, this weekend I ave plans to organize.  I have a lot going on.  I am a Realtor, secretary, crafter, baker, Avon Rep, and writer.  Its tough, but there has to be a way to revamp this site to reflect it all.
Yes, I have joined the likes of Twitter-- follow me on twitter  @lisaleeworks.
I am also giving away MYSTERY BOXES of beauty products on ebay.com.  Search for mystery box of beauty and place a bid!  Yes, you can probably guess the brand, but can you guess the products.  Starting bid is $10 for a medium flat rate shipping box from the post office filled with over $100 worth of items.

Product Review: Emergen-C

Let me start off by saying I am NOT A DOCTOR, PHARMACIST, or anyone who matters in the health field.  This is not medical advice, and you should do your own research!  Okay.  That being said, I love this product.
Emergen-C is a vitamin packet unlike any other.  Mix the contents of one packet in 4-6 ounces of water. Wait for the fizzing to stop and drink.  I feel a burst of calm energy minutes later!  Emergen-C is a dietary supplement that comes in a handful of flavors.  It boasts that it contains 1,000 mg Vitamin C along with 7 B Vitamins.  Why do I love it?  I took two trips to Vegas this year, and I didn't pack any of this supplement with the first trip, but then I felt awful after the first night, barely any sleep, and a slight hangover.  The sundry shop in Bally's does sell it, but its like $3 for 2 packets!  After taking one, I felt better about an hour later.  So, for my second trip to Vegas, I packed enough for me and AB...and it paid off!  I took one each morning when I woke up and another before we started up for the evening.  
I hate being sick, and I try to avoid it at all costs.  Unfortunately, that is hard to do sometimes when you work in an office atmosphere and come into contact with a lot of people.  Especially during flu season.  So, for the past few days I have felt worn out, tired, and achy.  Its that time of year.  We had a blizzard 2 weeks ago, and now everything is melting and its 50 degrees outside.  That screams, "Time to get sick, Lisa!"  I have been taking 1-2 packets of this a day for about a week.  I do feel better temporarily.  They don't taste bad, and you can drink them like a shot if you want.  Now, I am not saying this is a miracle cure by any means, I just like it, and I think it does a great job at making me feel better.  I highly recommend the Super Orange flavor.  Pink Lemonade is good, too.

A local jeweler, Alberts, offers free wedding services in the store on Valentine's Day. I love reading each year how many couples take advantage! Maybe non-traditional, but very sweet!
