Mine was fantabulous (thanks for asking ;) )!! Please comment on this post with a couple highlights of your sunny weekend – I love to hear what my amazing friends and followers have going on!
My weekend kicked off with a bang! I had SUCH an amazing Friday in my new red stilettos!! It was my second day at my new contract and I chose to breakout the new heels I got from my Grandma & Grandpa (yes, he was there when they were first spotted and said we should buy them for Robyn! He he…love it!!) . I was so excited to spend my weekend at HOME – first one in awhile. I had got the itch on Friday morning to start my first book! Yes you read that correct, you may have seen my Facebook status late Friday night first disclosing this action!!
It’s a goal of mine to write a book and I knew when it was supposed to happen it would. I started this blog after my amazing bestie Laura suggested I get my writing juice flowing – thank you SO much!! Well, I just confirmed my FIRST motivational speaking date for October and am SO excited – this is a dream come true and a goal I get to cross off my list!! I’ve been working on the material for the launch of my speaking career and the words just started flowing… I got into the groove and started writing…so one goal is supporting another! The topic of my first book is currently “Attitude, Networking, and Social Media” – I don’t have a title yet, but am open to ideas! Think I feel a contest coming on!!
Saturday morning I woke up refreshed and ready to keep sharing my knowledge and life experiences. I soaked in the rays on my deck, wrote, and drank Rhubarb slush! It’s absolutely amazing and yes I made it from a secret recipe! I’m all about sharing though – so watch for the recipe in the next day or two posted on here. I realize you may not want to wait, but patience is a virtue, I have to keep you checking back to visit my blog! If you’re a type A personality and going grocery shopping before I post it… sneak peek, you need Rhubarb (8 cups), sugar, 1 package of Strawberry Jello, Lemon Juice, and Vodka!! (Oh I have a funny story about this ingredient, pertaining to John’s grandmother that I’ll share with you later, he he…)
My gorgeous Saturday afternoon got quite exciting! As I was enjoying the sun, I observed a couple “challenged realtor” moves, I’ll explain more soon! I have a pet peeve for poor business skills and unprepared houses for the market!! I feel a topic for book two developing.
I had an amazing Sunday, kicked off by going to church. Then I had the chance to catch up with our beautiful friends after service and see some favorite “experienced” citizens of our congregation! I went and poked through a couple Open Houses and then had a fun Arbonne class in the afternoon! I just LOVE sharing the amazing swiss skin care and cosmetic products with my family and friends!
Despite having to work on my new contract (could also be known as a J.O.B. (Just Over Broke) – so excited to keep building my Arbonne empire!) this morning – I took up a friends invitation for a diva accountability session last night over a glass of German Riesling…ok maybe it was two! Here’s to Sunday – we toasted! Are you flexible and spontaneous with your time – taking up last minute chances to get together as often as you can and willing to open up to others about your amazing ideas for support and constructive criticism? I am and I challenge you to do the same – find a support friend(s) that you can meet with when your schedule allows to grow as a woman and business diva! Women love to be nurtured and don’t always get that attention from men and male colleagues in our life!
I love new weeks – a new opportunity to tackle the world! I love to re-launch my life each week! I was lucky to catch a gorgeous sunrise this beautiful Monday morning and dance around to the radio while I got ready to attack my day!
I hope you make this week amazing!
With Nolan being gone all last week (working in Edmonton) our weekend was fab just spending it together! I followed my husband around like his little puppy! I missed him so much and wanted to be near him all the time!
Cant wait to spend another week together!!!
AMAZING Tam!! I loved your analogy of being like a little puppy – I am just like you when John is home! I can hear you – “please play with me Nolan, please” with your puppy dog eyes!! Absence makes the heart grow fonder! Hope you have an awesome week together! Thanks for sharing and following my blog! Love ya – trust you’re feeling fabulous!!
Congrats, I am going to have an author/motivational friend! I am sure you will achieve success with this new project. This weekend I was at a sale and then Stillwater for a real quick trip. I am looking forward to getting back down there for a long stay in a couple of weeks! Oh and you might be interested to know this, I saw Kyla N. – Matt’s new fiance. She is super excited about this new engagement!
I am going to need to hit a farmer’s market soon so I can prepare for the Rhubarb slush!
I’m so excited that you’re going to Calf Fry – I’m a bit envious – ok a lot!! He he…there will be TONS of guys for you to check out, maybe you’ll be reaccquainted with the perfect man – he’s probably already in your life you know. Ok enough from Mrs. Advice – you may not even be looking right now, especially since the perfect gentleman is not close right now – he he… ANYHOO…I am SOOO excited for Matt & Kyla!! I figured you knew here and keep forgetting to ask you about her!! Plan your trip to Rhubarb – you’re going to LOVE it!! Thanks for your amazing support Crystal – have a fabulous week!
Hey Robyn! I just loved hearing about your weekend-you have such great engery and motivation, hence why I think it’s awesome you have your first motivational speaking date in the works!! You will have to keep us all posted on that! My weekend consisted of heading into Brandon (our closest city from Rivers) with my amazing mom to do some shopping and bonding…I was also able to pick out some new paint colors for our kitchen and some pretty cool shelving for the living room that I’ve had my eye on (as you can tell, we’re starting up a few reno’s again). It just happened that one day I was inspired and finally decided on some colors for our reno’s! I did this all while my loving bf stayed back at the house to work on our hallway that we are ripping apart! Sunday was very special-my bf and I headed off to p/u his grandma (yet another amazing woman) and took her to Damien’s parent’s place for a wonderful supper with his family and his other grandma – so I was surrounded by many loving, amazing people and tasty food – what could be better?!
Green Hectares had a booth at the Great Canadian Trade Show, and it was great to have the chance to meet “closet” ag enthusiasts, and to share our passion for agriculture with children who stopped to plant peas at our growing station.
On Saturday night I was lucky to spend an evening with my honey enjoying a delicious stirfry he made and playing Scattergories! Life is good.
You mentioned that your book was going to include a social networking section, and I just came across this great video.
