Aloha in March


Aloha from Hawaii!
I just got back from a conference in Texas where I got to meet all the other Single Marine Coordinators around the nation and Japan too!
I’m super motivated right now and ready to save the world! It was an amazing opportunity and I learned a lot too! The people were like me…or at least I got along with them and made lots of new friends.
Before I left town, I also got to participate in Jane Wayne Day – a day where the wives of Marines get to BE a Marine for a Day. I’m not a wife, but since I helped this battalion with the Barracks Bash, they invited me to participate. They even set me up with an honorary husband for the day. I felt sorry for this Marine at first. I thought he had to work just because I wanted to participate, but turns out he had to be there anyway. I got to shoot the guns, go in the gas chamber and take a ride in an Amphibious Assault Vehicle. And there was supposed to be a BBQ at the end, but instead there were MRE’s. I made a sacrifice and left for my conference before they busted em out and I even made the newspaper.


Gas is 3.62/gallon…today – it will probably go up tomorrow…again.
Did I mention I’m an Arbonne rep? It’s the “new” Mary Kay or Avon. I get a 35% discount on everything. If you’re interested in Arbonne…CALL ME!! I used it for a few weeks and my skin was glowing they got me. I paid $100 for a face wash, lotion and serum. But since I paid the $29 to be a rep – I got the 35% discount. See, I’m not only a salesperson, I’m a client too.
I STILL live in Lanikai. That’s relevant because I’ve been here 4 ½ months and moved 3 times!!! But there is still drama from the dirty old man who I was renting from in Kaneohe. Ask me about drama…go ahead…ask! OK – not that much drama except for that... That’s a good thing.
