Completely amazed

I knew that the reason I signed up to be a Norwex consultant was because they had amazing products and a great philosophy behind the company, but the more I use these products the more I am amazed!
How can you not be when you have these kinds of results?

I had tried everything on this door...Soft Scrub, Comet, Goo Gone and other like cleaners with absolutely no luck!

I used Lime Away, CLR and Comet on the outer ring and could not get it shiny clean!

This floor was the death of me!  I tried every product I could think of.  I even tried different combinations of products!  Finally my mom, who cleans homes professionally, tried cleaning it because she thought she would be able to get it clean.  She still had no luck!  She actually ended up telling Bill we just needed to replace the floor!  Now, I'm glad we had put it off because it looks awesome!

This cookie sheet was about to be thrown away.  I'm actually embarrassed that I had something so disgusting looking in the kitchen...and I use it!  I took TWO minutes of my time and rubbed in a circular motion on the right side of the sheet.  Look at the difference! This was only after two minutes!  Imagine what it would look like after five!

All of the above items (and more) were cleaned with Cleaning paste and an enviro cloth!  Can you believe it?  This stuff is really just magic in a jar!  It is made with three simple ingredients and safe for the health of you and your family!

The Cleaning Paste can be found at my website.  If you plan to place an order please put it under my business launch party and you will be entered to win free products!  I will be giving away numerous products!  All orders will ship directly to your homes and they ship right away!  No waiting on the party to close!



I just want to say Thank you to those readers who have supported my business so far!  I could not be where I am with out you!

Random Wednesday

I'm in a middle of the week slump...and I'm not really sure why because this week is so packed with a lot of exciting things.  Maybe this cold weather is to blame?

Monday night we got back into Girl Scout meetings.  Some of the girls were still on a holiday break I think!  As the girls get older it is starting to feel more like a babysitting hour/social hour than a scout meeting.  Has anyone else had this experience?

We worked out last night.  Hard.  Maybe not so hard, but I got hit in the face hard!  We had five different stations and we worked at each station for one minute with one minute of rest in between.  It wasn't really rest because we had to high tail it over to the next station!  They were: box jumps, push ups, ball toss sit ups (we had a 10 pounder), rowing machine and 10 lb kettle bell presses.  Bill was my partner.  We were doing the ball toss sit ups and I took it right to the face which resulted in me being knocked to my back.  I don't even know why or how I didn't catch that ball! Crazy!  Don't worry, though, we finished all of the rounds!  Bill said to me this morning that we will be purchasing a rowing machine soon.  He is hooked.  So am I.

Tonight I will enter my first ever Norwex order.  I am so excited!  I was also invited to do a vendor fair with a great group of ladies.  I think that this business is off to a great start!  I am contemplating having a launch party, but the only day that I really have time for one would be this coming Sunday.  As in 4 days from now.  Is that a good idea?  I'm not sure!

Tomorrow I will become an aunt for the 12th time and my children will have their 12th cousin!  My sister is going in at 6 am to be induced with her fourth child who just happens to be her first son!  I couldn't be more excited!  The kids are already counting down until when they can see "baby Michael".

Friday is a night of absolutely no plans.  I hope to keep it that way!

Saturday I will be going to shadow a Norwex party.  In the afternoon all four kids have their hair cuts.  I wonder if the girls will be keeping the short hair or not?  I sure hope so!

Thanks for listening to my ramblings!  I hope everyone is in the middle of a great week!

Weekend recap

Did you notice that in the winter although it may seem like you are not as busy you still are? That's the case with our family at least! We may not be running to and from sports with the kids followed by a bunch of birthday parties but we still find things to keep the cabin fever away! We started the weekend out by surprising the kids with Monster Jam! They didn't know what we were doing until we arrived. They were so excited! Here are a few of Camden's favorites!

The kids had a blast and already asked if we can go again next year!  

Saturday was full of errands followed by date night!  Have you been to Target lately?  I just shopped for 90% of my niece and nephews birthdays for this year!  They have a great clearance going on for toys, baby gear and clothes.  I found awesome toys for 70% off!  It is going to be a great gift giving year!  If you haven't checked it out in the past two weeks be sure to head over there! 

We then went to dinner with friends where we consumed way too much!  We followed the good food up with going to the comedy club!  We saw Zach Martina and Nathan Timmel.  They were great!

It's a good thing we added another workout class for this morning!  I didn't think working out on a Sunday morning would ever feel so good!  It was great and I even finally succeeded in doing a few box jumps.  This 

was very intimidating!  I'm not sure exactly why either!  If you watched the Biggest Loser this week and saw Jennifer trying to accomplish this....well, that was me!  I was the same way and felt her pain!  

Here's to hoping I can accomplish my list of to dos around the house today!  I also have to get my Norwex business going!  I have a party booked for each week of February already!  I didn't think it would take off like it has but it's a great thing!  I couldn't be more excited!  If you have any questions about Norwex please don't hesitate to contact me!  

I hope you have a productive enjoyable weekend!  

Where are you now...where do you want to be?

This is how far I have come...but it is not where I want to be forever. Although I have made some drastic changes to my physical appearance and fitness capabilities, I know that there is more in store for me. In the beginning I had that drive to succeed and to do it rather quickly. When I was not working out with my trainer I was doing my own work outs or on the treadmill. I am ashamed to say it, but that treadmill probably has dust accumulating. I need to find that drive that I had! What are your goals? Where do you want to be? How will you get there?

I DID IT!

I am officially a Norwex Independent Sales Consultant!  I'd love to answer any questions that you may have!  Please visit my website.  You will be amazed at the performance of these products!

Another goal to work on!

How can this 

cause so much pain?!

Last night I worked out with the trainer.  She had us do 10 resistance band assisted pull ups, 15 leg raises and 60 jumps with the jump rope.  We had to do as many rounds as we could in fifteen minutes.  Oh my goodness do my legs hurt!  I was able to do 6 rounds.  I also realized that I need to work on upper body strength because even though the pull ups were assisted with a resistance band I still could not complete one set of 10.  I ended up having to do (what I call) body raises on her rings.  Make that one more thing to work on and one more goal to my list!  

What are your fitness goals and weaknesses?  I'd love to hear them!

I'm still here and with exciting news!

Wow!  It has been quite a while!  The past few months have been absolutely crazy over here!  We celebrated the holidays and had a blast!  The kids have gone from outdoor soccer this fall, straight to indoor soccer this winter.  They are loving every minute of it!  And because life just wasn't busy enough for me....I decided to sign up to sell Norwex!

Yes, as of tomorrow I will be an Independent Norwex consultant!  I couldn't be happier!  I was first introduced to Norwex this fall when by chance I stumbled upon a site that "told me" that an enviro cloth would leave my laminate streak free.  Yes, I had to google how to make that happen!  I had used every cleaner and rag/brush/sponge/mop know and there was absolutely nothing that worked!  We had laminate over five years and I was continuously trying new things.  I ended up purchasing the cloth and much to my amazement it left my floor streak free!  At that point I did check out the other items on their website because I was amazed at the enviro cloths performance but being the frugal girl I am I decided they were too pricy for my budget.  A few months later I was invited to an in home party.  The party overlapped soccer schedules so I was only at the demonstration the last five minutes..and ended up just buying more cloths and the mattress spray (the only product I heard about).  I had booked a party but wanted to wait until after the holidays to host.  Well....I just hosted the party last week and I am absolutely hooked!  These products clean like no other!  I loved to hear and learn about them but I was far more impressed seeing them in action!  We cleaned my house effortlessly!  We cleaned things that I have tried numerous products on without batting an eye!  Stains that were years old and things I thought would stay in the house forever were suddenly gone!  Amazed doesn't even begin to explain it!  

I can not wait to share this journey with you!  If you have any questions please feel free to ask!  I am in the process of getting my website set up but until then just leave me a comment!  Also, if you use Norwex and have a success story or a favorite product I would love to hear about it!
