What I’ve been up to…

I have been busy, busy, busy!

In August I signed up to sell Tupperware. My mother-in-law talked me into it. I wasn’t sure how it would go, but there are so many people I meet that want to buy it or they didn’t know anyone that sold it. So I’ve been busy going to events and setting up my tables.

This past Thursday the event was a ladies fashion show and the club house was right on the water!

I have also started a charity group that I hope to make official in a few months. Official meaning signing all those papers for a 501c3. It’s lot of work, so I’m taking it slow to see how it goes. We had our first event this past Saturday. We did a food drive for a local homeless shelter. We brought in 4 shopping carts of food($500) and over $200 in cash donations. Not bad for our first event and only 3 days to do it in! We had two locations set up on Saturday.

We have another event this coming Saturday were we will be having a raffle of donated services/items from local vendors. ThenΒ  a bake sale in early December.

Plus more Tupperware events coming up and the holidays and school events and everything else! πŸ™‚

I love all that I am doing but at times feel overwhelmed.

 

What have you been up to lately?

I'm a mother of 2 who likes to get involved in too much! Besides writing here I started a non-profit, I'm on the PTO board, very active in my community and volunteer in the school. I enjoy music, reading, cooking, traveling and spending time with my family. We just adopted our 3rd cat and love them all!
