Notice anything different this week????
Well we had a few design team members move on from us.
We wish them all of the best as we consider them our online family.
I know many of them will still come to look at what the other design team members have made.
I am truly sad about them leaving. I also consider them friends.
So it is not easy seeing them move on.
With everything else going on in my life (flood, divorce, and health issues)
The thing that saddens me the most is losing those design team members.
It is hitting me VERY hard. I know many of you think I am strong .... which I think I am.
But every so often it is ok to be sad about something (that just means I am human)
Here is the shame on me..... I let my personal life totally consume me, my soon to be Ex-Husband has really torn me down. Each day there is a 2 hour lecture that I get saying all of the things that I do wrong.... seriously 2 hours EVERY DAY. After 2 hours of that I just want to go to bed.
And I have been doing that.... each day, I go to bed. During that time, I would sign into facebook and not even look in my design team's facebook group. So I totally neglected my team and my customers. It is my fault that they have moved on. There is no blame or anything else....
Just me and what I did. I am very sorry to you ladies. I wish I could make it up to all of you.
Here is the silver lining...... (you knew I was going to find one) As sad as I am to see several design team members go, there is a new way of 10 Design team members that will be moving into the permanent positions after they are with the team for 30 days. As far as those who have left, I would probably do the same, but I do want to thank you for all of the time you have spent here and in the end the biggest thing that you all have given me was a wake up call. I was so consumed with the divorce that I didn't have my heart in my team or business. Now I know what I did and I am working my butt off to make it up to the teams members who did stay with me. So now the two things that I have neglected I am giving all of my heart to, my team and my business.
I have many things to make up to many people, and I am going to do it.
So this week we are showcasing ONE person and ONE project each day.
Don't worry next week all will be back to normal.
We have structured the team now to post 5 projects each day

Divorce is a very hard thing to have to go thru. Many of us have been in your shoes and totally understand what you are going thru. You have worked hard to get where you are and you will be able to pick yourself up and dust yourself off and continue on. You have a beautiful little girl that is counting on you. You will get thru this and God will guide you. Praying for you and your family.
