Hi Shellyville,

I can't believe it is November! So many things are running thru my candy filled mind.

I needed that extra hour of sleep this morning. It has been one long long weekend!!

It started out Friday with watching my friends sick boy. He played video games all day while I made jewelry for the Woman's Expo on Saturday.

That night we went over to Kim and Chris's for chili dinner and drinks. We never played cards but we sure had fun just relaxing and eating. Thanks Kim for a fun night!

Now I have a new favorite drink...Leelanau Cellar's Witches Brew!

I couldn't wait to get to bed because I had to get up so early on Saturday morning for the Wayne State University's I'am Woman expo in Detroit. What a blast, I had a table with a friend and we both promoted our poetry books and I had a few pieces of my jewelry with me. I didn't sell much but I was offered two speaking engagements.

I think it would be a blast to talk to young teenagers about self-esteem and self-love. I even met a few ladies that are interested in having me present to woman's group about that same subject. Who knows it could be a way to open up a few doors for my new career.

I am always willing to find new ways to improve my life.

Happy November!!
Love,
Michelle
