{Is this all worth it?}

So it's 1:00 in the morning, kids & hubby are fast asleep, but I can't seem to catch a wink. I just participated in my 4th boutique yesterday & my mind is just racing with questions & solutions & "what if's" & hope & doubt. Basically, I'm just wondering to myself..."is this all worth it"? I mean, do I spend an entire week planning & shopping & designing & neglecting & working for a boutique that was - "uuh"? Maybe I have too high of expectations, but no...not really. It's not like I expect to totally sell out, but to make somewhat of a profit would be nice. To just break even doesn't really cut it. So again, is this all worth it, do I cut my losses now as far as boutiques are concerned & just stick with the online stuff? Or, do I try, try again? The latter has been my attitude thus far, but I just don't know anymore. Despite what this might sound like, I'm actually not THAT discouraged about the situation. This boutique was my 2nd personal best. I didn't come home crying from it, unlike some of the others. I think they're great fun! I love the buzz that goes on & meeting new people. I just don't find them being that rewarding. I'm simply just debating if it is something I should continue spending my time, energy & money on. What do you think?

{What a rush!}

So my labels were on Studio 5 today! And can I just tell you what a rush it is to see your your hard work displayed & talked about on TV? My heart is still pounding! There's so many emotions it seriously brought tears to my eyes. (I know, I'm a bit of a sap) And you know, there was one other thing that made it great. I use to be a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. And out of all the people to have on the segement before mine today, was Shelly Gardner, the CEO & founder of Stampin' Up! As many of you know I do NOT believe in coincidences! Her story is so inspiring & gives me such hope for the idea of the labels & who knows what else my little mind has in store! So what a treat today was! Thank you Kelly for taking the labels today & showing them off! It truely made my day, week & month!

Here's a link to the Studio 5 page to see them featured: http://studio5.ksl.com/?nid=59&sid=2693957
