Well....so much for keeping up with a Blog!  I got an email from my one and only follower the other day telling me I need to do an update...thanx Mom!!  Love you!!!!!!!!!!

My youngest found out she is having a BOY!!  woohoooooooooooo   Boys are few and far between around here so we are super ecstatic about this.  For now his name is Jonathon Robert, but I don't think that is going to change.  I will still call him Schmedrick.  lol  Don't ask, I have no idea where that came from.

My oldest continues to spin wool into yarn and has possibly found a local source of raw wool.  I hope that works out for her.  She really has some talent.

I have been reflecting on a few things in the last couple of weeks and I have concluded that you don't love one child more than another, you love them in different ways for different things.

My oldest keeps me in check.  In a past life she must have been my mother.  She makes me think and knocks me upside the head when needed (not literally).  She is very "black and white with only a few rare grey areas", very matter-of-fact and doesn't always approach people tactfully, but you ALWAYS know where you stand with her.

My youngest provides the things that bring me the greatest joys in life: grandchildren and a goofy little beagle named Max.  Life would be very dull without them.  I thank and love you both!!! 

Avon has gone all out for the upcoming holiday season.  Make sure you keep your eye on my website (www.youravon.com/sherylsalmons) for all the new products coming up.  ANEW Genics...10 years in the making...addresses the 3 biggest aging concerns women have:  wrinkles, uneven skin tone and texture.  Avon is first to market with this revolutionary new technology, just like we were with alpha hydroxy.  Look for the commercials on TV that are airing now.  Step into Sexy is the new fragrance coming out in C24.  All of these things can be ordered thru my website when they are available.

If you are looking for an opportunity to earn your holiday cash go to www.startavon.com and use reference code sherylsalmons to start now for only $20.  No inventory to keep, no kit to buy.  Avon will mail your initial books and materials.  Come join me and lets have some fun!!

Time to go pick up the little pipsqueak from school. 

Namaste

Root Beer Floats

Last night a friend (Jill) and I went to the drive-in!!  We saw Cars 2 and the new Pirates of the Caribbean .  More important than the actual movie was a good time with a friend.  We each brought a cooler of goodies and gobbled junk food and talked for 4 hours.  A W E S O M E! ! !     Funnel cakes, jellied fruit slices, Hershey's chocolate bars, honey/mustard pretzels and our pièce de résistance...root beer floats!!

Work has changed my schedule again after the official deadline...sigh.  Its not that I mind the extra hours or that today is now my only day off this week (and I'm sure I'll be working next Sunday and Monday since it is 4th of July..more than 7 days in a row), but the fact that the schedule isn't final until Friday at 6 pm which makes it hard enough to make plans for a personal life and now when you do make plans they can just change their schedule at will without regard to their employees.  If that isn't a long run-on sentence, I don't know what is...lol.  Seriously Meijer....writing a schedule really isn't all THAT hard, lets write one and stick with it!!

My youngest got to hear her baby's heartbeat on Friday.   yay!  Beating at 155...that is girl territory.  My step-niece will be finding out if she is having a boy or a girl in July so my daughter should be finding out in August.  That seems like an eternity away. 

My youngest also gets all the blame for my current creative streak in the kitchen as she has me watching the Food Network.   I haven't gotten any complaints about this yet. I'll let you know when we are eating boxed macaroni and cheese because of a failed recipe.  ;)  I plan on trying my hand at home-made bacon in the near future!

Tuesday my Avon District Manager and I are going recruiting for new representatives.  Wish us luck, I would like to come away with no less than 3 new people.  There is still time to order from my website (www.youravon.com/sherylsalmons) and take advantage of my previously mentioned web special.   You can also sign up to sell Avon at www.startavon.com using reference code sherylsalmons for only $20!  Where else can you start a business for $20?!?!

Time for me to go out and cut some branches away from the phone lines.  Every time the wind blows the phone crackles and disconnects...aggravating!!!  I want to have it done before the granddaughter gets here.

First post

Since I always have something to say I thought blogging should be a piece of cake.  Now that I am sitting here in front of the computer actually doing it, I'm thinking YIKES...what am I doing?  Who in the world do I think is going to actually read this?  I know I have lots to say all the time, but seriously...does anyone care what I have to say?  :)    Time will tell.

I guess the best place to start is with an introduction.  My name is Sheryl Salmons.  :)  I have 2 children and 2.5 grandchildren (yay!  the .5 arrives in December).  I have what I consider the most adorable Beagle in the world, his name is Max.  To be sure you will be seeing pictures of him in the future.

I am an Independent Avon Representative and currently a Unit Leader.  I am working to increase my customer base and advance my title.  I intend to be an Advanced Unit Leader by the end of the year.  If you are interested in buying or selling Avon, please send me an email.  


In our current brochure we are introducing Scentini...wonderfully fruity frangrances.  Make sure you shake the bottle up to get the full effect when you spray.  Make-up on pages 18 and 19 of the C14 brochure feature any 3 for $10.99.  Great prices!!  

I think I am going to offer a "Blog Special" when you order direct from me.  Summer is upon us (even though you cannot tell by the 49 degrees it was last night) so lets start the summer off right with some new sandals!!   For every pair of shoes you order in the C14 brochure, choose a FootWorks product (pages 168-171) as a free gift.  Your feet will love you for it!  :)  Send me an email!!

We have new products coming in C15-superSHOCK Mascara and Lipstick.  Order one of each for $7.99, if ordered separately at the intro price it would be $10.98, so order the set and save yourself $3!!

Thanks for reading and have a super day!
