Re: [MLM Survivors Club] Why I should do the MLM thing

About the military wife thing... I have been a military wife for
about 4 years. I admit I used "military wife" in a sarcastic kinda
negative way in regards to the topic. "Military wife" is an inside
joke between my husband and I. My husband has introduced me to a lot
of his Navy friends and their wives (stay at homes, like me), and we
must admit that SOME of those wives were shady women who seemed like
they could not be trusted. So we have a military wife sterotype
inside joke. We just think we are better than others.(LOL) The
inside joke is, is that I feel like being a military wife is "corny,"
because they are usually stay at home moms who just stress out all
the time and seek drama in their lives. Gosh, I am digging a hole
for myself! It is just my observation and judgement of others. ( I
am not as nice as I thought I was. :@) ) I hope this makes sense...
Probably not. Of course as a military wife myself, I have to admit
it is a hard job! I thank God that my husband is getting out after
11 years! Sorry I am not the best writer... I think military wives
could easily be victims because they are usually stay at home moms
who need drama in their lives, and that is what MLM's bring! (Yes, I
said DRAMA, that is what I think MLM's are, a bunch of drama)

Thanks for giving me advice about my particular drama. I am in the
process of getting a criminal exemption through the Department of
Social Services so I can continue working with children and the
elderly. For the rest of my life I will need to go through all that
drama of getting background checks and fingerprints and then having
to prove myself worthy by submitting letters of recommendation and
submiting essays about how I have learned my lesson and how I am not
likely to commit any more crimes. BooHoo for me! Supposedly I can
file for an expungement in November of this year. I don't even know
what that really means right now.

As of right now my partner and I have not really pushed our personal
training business. We really need more information about small
business, such as help in advertising/marketing. Dawn, thanks for
the advice! Hal, I worked at the gym before I had my child, I really
didn't want to go back but I think I will, just to feel more stable.
The personal training business will always be here for me, once
people start realizing they really need it! Work out, be healthy
everyone. If you don't take time out for exercise and lifestyle
change now, you will have to make time for disease. Good night!
