How is your year kicking off? 
Is it crazy and out of control? 
Did you make a ton of goals for yourself?

Okay sisters it’s time to make this your year! Amy and I are going to make it ours! A friend recently told me that I was like a duck?? Yes, a duck in the madder of on top of the water, I looked like I was just cruising along, but under the water my legs were going 600 miles an hour. Yes, that is me running around like a chicken with my head cut off.

Hmmm….I think I have been told that a time or two! My point is all of my running around is really not getting anywhere. 2013 is going to be a great year for Gypsy Soule and me personally with how I handle things… at least that is the goal I am shooting for, and if I don’t get it right today I still have tomorrow. That is the great thing about life. Let go of yesterday, and get ready to do better tomorrow.

The reason I asked those questions earlier is because I want to think about how I’m kicking off this year. If things are not the way I would like them to be, what can I do to change them or make them better? Some things in your life, you can’t change BUT what can you do to change your outlook on what is going on in your life? 
Crazy and out of control is the story of our life and we do that to ourselves most of the time. This last week I think it really hit me that I am almost 40! ME 40!!! I have always never looked at my life in numbers, ever, but again time is flying by and I want to enjoy it more. How do you get control of the craziness in your life? For me, I SLOW DOWN and stop being that duck or just maybe just start with taking a deep breath at least!

Goals. Goals. Goals! How many of you set a ton of goals for the New Year? I think you can tell what is mine! What does not work out today I always have tomorrow! Goals are so great to set and work towards, but don’t over set them or set too many, so that it makes you feel discourage. Take them one day at a time. Little rewards along the way always seem to help too!

Yes, I am a gypsy, and as much as I love to travel, and go go go, all I want to do is stay HOME! I think this past Fall did me in. Let’s see… China in November, Vegas & Cali in December, and Denver and Dallas in January. Not to mention Christmas and all of the market samples to add to the mix. Oh, and lets not forget about the remodel that I am doing on my house. I haven’t been home since October. Yes, I am whining… I just cant WAIT until its finally finished!

Next week, I am getting all packed up again and heading to Magic in Las Vegas. Here we come MGM… My home away from home!

I am SoOo excited for the Magic Market. We will have a booth at the Winn show again back at the Rio Hotel and Casino We are so lucky to be in the Main Room Booth # 534. We’re also not far from our friends at Kippy’s.  Love that the show will last 4 days, Monday 18th to Thursday the 21st.

Over at Magic, which is located at the Las Vegas Convention Center, we have moved out of Premium and have our full Gypsy Soule concept booth. Now, we are just down the isle at Booth number #75523. If you need more details on our Market booth always go to our website.

Our week in Vegas will be very busy with the two booths, and it being the largest Market in the US.  If you are a Gypsy Soule Dealer, please let us know so we can get you set up with an appointment or just stop by and say, “Hi.” We will have Drinks and goodies for ya!

So come on Sista’s get those bags packed and head out to Vegas! If you can’t get out that way we will be back at Dallas Market at the end of March.

Here is all of the 411 again for Magic

Home! And so happy to be here~ China, Vegas, LA, Denver and now Dallas! I can’t tell you how happy I am to be home, even if I’m not really home right now. Yes, did I forget to tell you I’m in the middle of a remodel of my home of 7 years…? You know when they tell you 90 days that turns into 120 day then that turns into forever. Not to mention I am married to Mr. EVERYTHING HAS TO BE PERFECT!

On my way home from the office today I went by to look at the new paint colors I am “agreeing to” so I can finally go HOME! So for tonight, I have to pick out what I want for my closet! Yes I have added a full blown Gypsy Sister Closet! I need to show off all my goodies! Boots, belts and all of my outfits.

I have spent several hours on Pinterest. I just can’t decide…..Should I just make it white or should I make it black.. or pink… or green ?? HELP Sisters!! I am asking for your advice! What should I do? What should I not do? Please e-mail me your idea’s to 
[email protected] I need all the Help I can get! These are some idea’s I like??

Denver once again has not let the Gypsy Sisters  down.  With the launch of the new Gypsy Soule® styles & new prices, all the dealers were smiling as they left the showroom with a copy of their order in hand along with lots of swag to take home with them.  The showroom has been rocking with smiles, music, and drinks.  Mrs. Brenda and Randi will finish up the show until Tuesday when it ends at 1 pm.  Don’t be sad if you didn’t get to go to Denver: Just get on over to Dallas this Friday- Monday. We will be set up on the 13^th floor Booth # 9107. I figured all of you #SouleSistas would love to see some of the fun we had in Denver.

The flight to Denver, on American Airlines, started out with the flight attendant in first class telling Amy to, “Just push that bag of hats in the over head bin.” We tried to tell her that it was hats that were inside the bag, she said, “That’s okay just make them fit.” Really lady???? They’re hats!!! So the problem-solver that I am, I decided that we could just were them instead!

This year we decided to change up hotels, as much as I like change and to always be doing new interesting ideas, I hate changing hotels. Once I find one that I like, that is where we stay. So for the past 4 years in Denver, we have always stayed Downtown at the Curtis. This year, thanks to our good friend and our own Gypsy #SOULEIGER Trent Johnson from Greeley Hats  we changed to the Hotel Teatro! OMG I was in love!!! Fabulous hotel, and the staff had over the top customer service.  When Amy, Randi, and I checked in, someone had a HUGE surprise waiting for them HUMM… Right Randi???

The next morning we were up and we were off to set up the new look and layout for the Denver booth. Let me just tell you the weather was not that bad those first few days. It stayed in the 40’s, but then it just got cold. You know, that cold that gets down to your bones!! Bling, glitter and lots of Jewels are not as much fun in the cold….but fur is!!!

The best part of Denver Market for Amy and I is that we get to see people that we  have been working with for more than 20 years, and yes we like to tell all those great stories that I will not repeat! Haha ha!!

Every Market, Amy and I do put just a little thought into our outfits so for me I thought a brand new Denver Broncos Jersey would be great for Saturday, since my Hubby is their biggest fan and since the game was being played in Denver.  Let me just tell you… My Jersey is Amazing. I had it custom done from Leah at Bella Artisty or check out her facebook.

I wanted to sleep in it!

Check out Amy’s outfit…Doesn’t she look HOT!!!

Saturday was busy day at the booth with the Cry Baby Ranch Party.  Yes Amy bought her a prize…
