Been awhile

So I haven't written with an update in awhile. Whenever I go away for awhile and then return, my return is prompted by a downturn in my life or some sort of "negative" experience.


I told you I was the main promoter for James Ray's visit to Boulder on July 9th (www.AchieveMoreToday.com).


I still am promoting his visit however we've only had 95 people sign. 95. We need more like several hundred to make it worth James' effort. I've done quite a lot to promote the night - taken out advertising in Nexus, contacted multiple LOA and metaphysical-type groups, put up flyers around Boulder & Longmont, listed the event on any community calendar I could find and contacted 2 local radio stations.


For whatever reason it isn't amounting to as much as I would like.


And now I'm beginning to feel like I'm letting people down by not making this event a success. I have one last group to contact: local realtors and I feel a little intimdated cold-calling them but I have no other choice at this point. Either I do it or we don't have an event. It's that simple.


So I'll suck it up, swallow my fear and go for it.


I know how much I'll beat myself up if this doesn't happen so I have to do it.





In other news, the new PT gig is good. I'm learning a lot and it's usually fun. I'm also getting plenty of writing time crafting articles and learning about submitting articles on the web to promote a product/service. It's fun.


I also bought a new bike - a Trek 7.2 hybrid. It rocks. It's not the Hello Kitty pink cruiser with streamers and a flower decorated-basket like I wanted but my bike is fast and strong. It sure cost enough though...I've dropped almost $600 on the bike & accessories. *sigh*


No other news - no boys, no dating. Memorial Day boy never called and I shouldn't be surprised since I still miss TX. I'd kick TX in the shins if I could, I hate missing him. But much like a snake sheds it's skin, I am letting go. That is how it has felt - like shedding a layer of skin. I've had to peel him off of me and out of my system.


So all in all things are great I guess - even if I don't completely feel that way right now. :\
