4 years!!!

four years ago today, emilie reinertsen called me up and signed me to be a passion parties consultant. i was so excited! little did i know where this journey would take me.

in the last year, i've quit my job, paid off some lingering credit card debt, did a lot of traveling, and made even more friends. i've seen my business grow by leaps and bounds. when i started with PP, it was for fun and in hopes that one day i would be able to quit that evil drs office. as i spend today reflecting on what i've achieved in the last four years, i am really proud of myself and my team for all the achievements we have made.

i have a bachelorette party tonight and i'm hitting up the store beforehand to buy a bottle of champagne. tonight there is going to be a celebration!!!

for everyone out there that is struggling to take your business to the next level, take it from me. keep working at it. don't give up! i've had my share of ups and downs in the last four years but i have never given up. DON'T QUIT BEFORE PAYDAY!!!

have a great weekend of fun and parties,
love jennifer

when having hairy legs is a good thing

i hate shaving. there, i said it. most of my girlfriends and my sister religiously shave their legs. i find every excuse not to. i find it tedious, i always miss a little patch, and it's generally a pain in the ass. tights/fishnets are my friends.

i had 3 first dates this week. i pose the question to myself "to shave or not to shave" before the dates. leg hair for me is like a chastity belt. leg hair keeps me out of trouble. running around DC at all hours of the night drinking boat loads of bourbon with shaved legs can lead to trouble. doing the same thing with hairy legs gives you an out.... "i haven't shaved..."

thank you leg hair for keeping me from making bad decisions in my drunken haziness.

i did shave today... but today was different. 80 degrees and sunny and i wanted to wear a dress without fishnets. plus, my date was at the mall in the afternoon and involved 0 alcohol, so i knew i was safe.
