Hello Everyone,

I need better time management skills! I plan on working on that in 2012! This year has been a whirl wind of event. Married the man of my dreams and gained an amazing new son! I also was titled as an Avon Unit Leader…

I want to become and SEUL by the end of 2012… Mark is very instrumental in my success… He is my Admin Guy.  I don’t know what I would do with out him! I am just glad I will never have to know.

I want this site to become a source of information and inspiration for my Team. I want to inspire them to do what I do… Even better.

Before I can accomplish that… I need to get my stuff in order… So, Please bare with me. I am still learning how to blog and upload!

Merry Christmas

Gina

I am sitting here listening to my husband talk about being tired while sticking my books into a plastic “What’s New” bag for my customer tomorrow! (He is fantastic and much appreciated)

Mark  has built this site (he is the AdminGuy) for me so I can work my Avon Business full time. Hopefully in the next few months I can quit my day job and replace that income and then some with Avon.

We are always looking for energetic, fun loving people to join our team.

I have a busy week ahead. I am adding 4 new Reps into my downline and a sales meeting tomorrow night. No dinner with the family until Friday.

Why do i do it?! I see a bigger and better future ahead. So, with the dreams I have, I need to lay the foundation down. That takes hard work and dedication.

My family… above all else… comes first. So, in order to give them the life Mark and I envisioned… We need to work it like a job and not a hobby.

SO, with that said… I need to get some sleep and rest up for a long day ahead.

I will write again, even if it a short hello soon!

Have  great Avon day!

Gina and Mark

Child themes in WordPress are great… but it seems WordPress and Google Chrome aren’t on the same page when it comes to hooks.

All I really wanted to do was change the footer a little and a simple child theme is always the best way to preserve changes to the theme files in case of an update. I could at the same time make some adjustments to the background, or at least set the structure in place for it. Alas, I lost all formatting and it looked like a bad wiki.

I got my theme figured out, had to paste in the whole css file into the child theme but whatever.. Now to look at the forum I’m trying to get installed. Last one didn’t work out so well.

Creating a form that makes it easier for people to reach you while protecting both them and yourself from the sharks out there trying to steal email addresses and anything else they can get is a lot more involved than I had given credit.  I’ve long had some nice php scripts that let me put forms on a website but as the languages have evolved, my forms have become out of date.  So just find another… right?

Not so easy.

I know what I need to do but that form just hasn’t been posted as a free script yet.  Well, there is one but it’s a free version and not documented very well since they also offer a paid form which is where they offer help.  Confusing on purpose?  Who knows, it would probably work fine if I wasn’t trying to do so much extra with it. Writing a whole new script will take days I just don’t have right now, so here is my quick solution:  The Blog of course.  WordPress does a great job of offering nice forms with good security.  I lose some of my continuity of design but I can work on that later.  For now, I’ve got a form that works and is secure.

Choosing a Thanksgiving theme or a Christmas theme is tough. Both holidays are important to me and going straight to Christmas seems to diminish the importance of Thanksgiving. Of course this site is an online store and it’s not like Christmas shopping season isn’t underway.

Well, for me I need to keep Thanksgiving in the mix. I’ll look for a countdown timer to keep Christmas in mind but we need priorities.  Thanksgiving comes first, then Christmas.

Holloween?  It’s fun but not exactly worth celebrating as a holiday.

Only 5 days to pre-launch of our first fully functional online store.  Still so much to do like get this blog designed and linked properly.  And not to forget loading in all the products into the database.

Pre-Launch (not to be confused with free-lunch as some have done) should work rather smooth with only minor tweaks in the site for the grand opening on November 1.  Who knew it would take so long to put something like this together?
