Summer Reading & Happy Heroes
What are you reading this summer? Lee & I are into a series by Stephanie Meyer called Twilight. They are about "good" teenage vampires. The first 2 chapters were slow but I blazed through the first and second books in just a couple weeks and I'm anxious to start the 3rd. Then we have to wait until August for the 4th installment to hit the bookstores and/or library. Check it out at http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/
Join us at the Jane Austen Book Club. We're reading Pride & Prejudice.
Get the details at http://janeausten.meetup.com/61/
For business/personal development I'm reading Harmonic Wealth by James Arthur Ray. You may have seen him on Oprah or Larry King.
His website is http://jamesray.com/
For spiritual development : God's Way is Still the Best Way by Zig Ziglar. Mr. Ziglar is one of my "Happy Heroes". I've been reading and listening to Zig ever since I started in sales many moons ago (20 yrs). He has a new book coming out soon called "Embrace the Struggle" it's about how to be Happy and postive when bad things happen. Zig is struggling with short term memory loss from a fall down the stairs. If you want some inspirtation take a look at this video of Zig with his daughter that he recorded for a seminar he couldn't attend because his doctor hasn't released him to travel yet. http://www.ziglar.com/zig_update.php?article=update_61708

Product Review
SpaFinder Manicure and Pedicure Center page 149
I have been using this since if first appeared earlier this year, around the time I got my acrylic nails. I really like it for keeping my nails clean and shaped but the best part are the buffing attachments for your feet. It really smooths your heels and gets rid of any dead skin. Buff your feet , then use the new PlanetSpa Paraffin Hand and Foot Treatment. Rub in your favorite Footworks moisturizer pg. 158-59 or try the PlanetSpa Foot & Elbow Cream pg. 144. Cover with the pink overnight socks (item #397320 for $4.99) and wake up with beautiful Happy Feet.

The Happy News Vol. 2 Issue 26
The Happy News is... Recognition is great!!! Last Friday I had the to opportunity to
participate in my 3rd President's Club Recognition Luncheon. You can see my President's
Club jewelry and Mrs. Albee figurine on my website at:
http://21stcenturyavonlady.blogspot.com/.
The food and the company were great and Avon provided fabulous door prizes for drawings which many
from our district were lucky enough to win including our very own Maxine Guerra who is on my team!!!
Maxine also won the Avon Rising Star award for our district. She made President's Club in 11 campaigns
(it takes most of us 20-26) and she has a good start on developing a team of her own. I'm very proud to
know Maxine. If you would like to meet her too, she's at the 72nd Street Flea Market (the old Rod Kush
Furniture building) most weekends. It was a very nice day for all of us but one thing made it extra special
for me!! I received the Spirit of Avon Award for our District. This is a special award to someone chosen by
the District Sales Manager. This is what it says on the certificate that I received along with my Spirit of
Avon Statue. “The Spirit of Avon award is an award given from the heart. The heart of a Manager and the
heart of Avon. Although it is often hard to choose just one recipient because there are so many special
Representatives, one person's incredible spirit stands out above the rest. Not necessarily because of sales
or high dollar increase, or even for recruiting excellence, but because of an attitude of giving, sharing and
selflessness. This person gives of herself continually. She builds her own business by professionally and
courteously serving her customers. She also cares and shares with other Representatives, as well as all
who have the privilege of crossing her path. She is a friend; she is a teacher; she is a blessing. She is the
Spirit of Avon.”
All I can say is “it's easy to exemplify the Spirit of Avon when you have the best Avon “friends” and
customers like I do!!!! “
You all are the Fabulous!!!!!

The Happy News Vol.2 Issue 26
The Happy NewsMay 22,2008 Volume II Issue 26
All readers of the Happy News have permission to copy it and pass it on!
The Happy News is... We still have a month of spring left!!! Most of us think that summer starts when school
lets out! But according to the calendar the first day of summer is June 21st. So we have 30 more days to enjoy
the spring of 2008! Which in my humble opinion has been the best spring we've had in a long time. It's been
mild and gradual with enough rain to get things growing and blooming but not bad storms to tear things
up. Last week we worked in our yard quite a bit. I planted annuals in the front just some petunias and
geraniums but it keeps the color going now that the tulips have gone and until the other perennials start to
bloom. Our poppies are blooming and a plant I brought up from my Mom's back door garden that we called
spiderwort but I'm not sure that's what it is. I had brought some in for Mom from a roadside ditch. It has
grown more robust in a cultivated setting and very pretty I think. We have rose buds coming on and my
hollyhocks are just about ready to bust out any minute. I also have lavender by the front walk and chocolate
mint as ground cover so our garden has some sweet smells to enjoy too. Bob has really helped make my
gardening easier by putting down lots of wood chip mulch keeps the weeds down and almost eliminates that
chore! I also planted my big hanging basket with annuals and the one on the porch with a blue flowering
vine. Lee planted the rest of the outdoor pots with seeds so we will have some things to tend and watch
grow throughout the summer. I was most anxious about the butterfly bush that I planted last year. It
seemed like it was never going to start growing and I was afraid that it didn't survive the winter. But at long
last it has started to grow and I'm thrilled! If you detect some passion in my writing about my garden you would
be right. You just can't take the “country” out of the girl. I still love digging around in the dirt and growing things .
Thanks , Dad for instilling that love of the land in me. I'm happy that I have passed this happy trait on to my
girls too. Lee has her own flower corner of the back yard and Jill is more of a cooks gardener. Her strawberry
bed that she planted last year is just loaded with blooms soon to be berries-- Can't wait! So Dear Readers, find
something in nature to enjoy in the last month of spring; plant some flowers, sit out doors and watch the
birds, take a walk and enjoy the plants in your neighborhood, blow bubbles,visit the Farmers Market or your
favorite plant nursery (Muhalls, maybe),breath deeply and be thankful for all things “spring”. You can see some
of my plant varieties pictured on my blog. http://21stcenturyavonlady.blogspot.com/.
