We painted over the weekend and I won a seven year olds vote without bribing him;)

Before this journey with It Works; I prayed for the perfect business. I prayed for "signs" from God to show me perhaps this was the business for me. I don't "bounce around" from company to company; I love researching them all to help others interested in working from home, I love the discounts I get from having accounts with companies and when I found It Works I knew it was something more than I could've imagined. This was not just extra money potential like the rest had been for me. I think so many companies that offer work at home opportunities are incredible, very profitable,etc. but something about It Works was more to me. The training, the people, the support, the leaderships, the morals...the fact we have praise & worship at our conventions. No other company I had been to had that; sure the one company I joined first that felt more like a mean girl cult was "faith-based" and we had a prayer before training meetings...but I wasn't moved. My team grew more in few months than it ever did with any other company...and i've worked from home for 6+ years...off and on; in between other jobs trying to pay bills. I always worked so hard; I was always on the phone, posting annoying ads, going door-to-dooor, posting fliers. I Was working my butt off...and I thought I made great money; but I had no idea what I was missing! It Works pays much more ways, has much easier levels I could earn and this is my opinion but I'm not going anywhere. Of course I love shopping and supporting businesses; It Works will always be my main thing! It's truly blessed my family!

I promise to blog more but life has been so very busy! I love our new home; it is just a blessing of what a tiny little bit of faith could do. I love how things are; but it's a lot slower here. Not the "fun" life; but at least you get in touch with doing things outside of going to different restaurants or shopping often. We have just been spending a lot of calm, alone time together and maybe we needed it after we missed a year apart from him being deployed. I pray he doesn't get deployed for a long time; it was the hardest time of my life. I didn't even know I was that strong. I still don't see how I got through it; it seems like everything goes wrong when they're gone. It could have always been worse; because some soldiers do not make it home so I am thankful God brought him home safely to me because I cry when I even think about not seeing him again. Sure; we had horrible problems but when a couple is away from each other so long; it's hard to stay calm the whole time. I hear we're not the only ones..we're lucky; I heard some got divorced. People have no clue how hard the military can be on your relationship. Not in all cases; of course. I know so many awesome, strong military families as well and that gives me a lot of hope! I've learned a lot; i'm transitioning more from a fun, party girl to more of a fun wife! I can still have a lot of fun; but now I Want to focus on being a great step mom, a great wife and a wonderful friend! We still have date nights often and spend so much fun times together; my goal is to get our dream home built in the city areas and I know if we keep our trust in God and work hard we will get all our hearts desires or at least a nicer, newer home. I am blessed with what we have and it's perfect for a couple our age.
Since I've been married; I have to say i'm truly grateful for my family. My mom and grandma were so amazing to me. Though we didn't always get along; she was still far better with somethings as some families. My mom never had alcohol or drug problems. She's never picked up liquor or got in trouble. She just worked hard and I think the only reasons we never got along is because she was always stressed being a single mom and not having one person ever to depend on. I never even have seen my dad. I hear about some people who say their parents were strung out or they had to switch schools every few months. I at least had a clean, safe home...food...clothes and I was taught respect and discipline. It hurts when I see good children and good people whose parents choose their boyfriends or drugs or partying over their babies...their own blood. Anyhow; that's my "I love my mommy" post :)
My business is going so fabulous; I am so impressed. I joined It Works last year; something about it always stayed in my mind. It looked so easy and fun...and I kept seeing my friends asking about them on facebook! I joined just for fun because I was making great money and living in a luxury penthouse downtown; I "thought" I was doing fabulous with all my businesses! Well;I joined and my sponsor/upline said,"When this takes off; it really takes off." Sure. Whatever...every business I join tells me that. I just thought I could make some extra money in it; that's what I do...I love buying into businesses who have great products! Well; it really took off. Thank you God. Let me just tell you; not only is the business amazing; but my team here has grown faster in a few months doing this (I joined end of last year), than I made in 7 years doing businesses period. Those other businesses were hard work; this came so easy and they have so many other products we need to be using daily anything like top of the line vitamins, supplements, etc. All of our products are natural is my favorite part; because I plan to be as organic as possible soon...my husband loves meat too much for us to go Vegan :) I'm a fast-food junkie who didn't like working out so It Works' products were perfect for me and I've never felt better. I used to be depressed often but learned to deal with it because I didn't want to take meds; I don't want to feel different or be hooked on a pill for life...everything like that has a side effect. I couldn't control my depression; I was so lucky and blessed...I didn't know why I felt depressed a lot. I had more than I Ever wanted or needed all my life and a hardworking mom and grandma who spoiled me. As an adult I've always had a good income working from home...they're product confianza is all-natural and for people to take when feeling stressed! At our training when I joined; I heard so many testimonies of people who found one of our products at least to be life changing! Some couldn't sleep until finding new you; some people needed something for their child who had difficult focusing in school...some people had horrible stomache pains daily...no matter what; we have something. We change lives, we help people feel and look better! I love this business and we're not some thick, gross shake you have to take daily. Many people love shakes; but I'd be so bored marketing a shake daily. We have so much to offer; it's incredible. It works pays more ways and all their levels are so much easier to reach; so many new perks I learn daily that's why it's important to study their compensation plan because you will see how much more they offer. I wish I would have found it sooner. I love other companies and I shop from so many; this one was just the main thing for me and the one that's my favorite! I love IT Works! www.davianewman.com www.facebook.com/itworksbydavia

New Beginnings

I can not believe it is already the beginning of March. 2013 is already going by way too fast; but I'm super excited for warmer weather to be approaching. We finally found the perfect home for us; for now. The dogs has tons of space inside & out to run around and the overall process of getting the home was simple. God really answered some prayers because I was going insane house-hunting...I am way too picky and options were not the best in the areas we were looking. They city isn't as big as the city as I am from and there was very few options. Overall; the house we chose was well worth the wait. My favorite part is the kitchen; it is truly beautiful! I am thankful beyond words and it's nice to finally feel a tad stable for a bit. It's been a dream of mine actually to just be able to put family photos on the wall or not have to feel like I live out of boxes and suitcases from traveling and moving so often. Everything is going amazing and I'm very pleased. My stepson loves the house! He said "it's almost as big as a mansion." He loves that it has stairs and a huge wooden floor to play and slide around in his socks in. My husband loves the redone basement in which he happily turned into a "man cave," which has turned out to be pretty cool actually! Moving was very hard and stressful in the winter but at least I have a very helpful husband who handled it all. Moving from a skyrise building with elevators isn't the easiest...especially when you live on a downtown busy street. Things are definatly a slower pace here!

'Tis the season

Christmas was good; I'm thankful my husband did not have to go back to Afghanistan after this holiday like it was last year. I am grateful things are calmer and we are now looking at buying our first house hopefully next month. I have a lot to be thankful for. It was a good feeling seeing how excited all the children in the family were to open their presents! Now time to plan New Year eves festivities!

I am thankful to have found It Works! I have done home based businesses and jobs for over 7 years. I have searched, tried, profitted and gained leadership roles with many of them. I seen It Works about a year ago and never gave it much thought. I thought it was not real and did not work. I honestly can say now that I'm upset I did not join earlier;that is my only regret with the company. That and that I did not buy inventory when I joined because I had no idea how fast I'd run out. As we speak now I have 4 ladies waiting on boxes of wraps that I had to order for them. This is the only thing that I do well as soon as I join; rather than having to invest in inventory or have to try hard to get parties or one interest. I like a ton of businesses; and many usually always have a large amount of people doing well with them. I just never found my "niche" quite. With It Works I had team within my first 30 days as well. It is not hard and I stay busy. I love it! I'm always so excited and the reason I love it even more is because I get to watch my team stay excited, say they're happier in their lives now or say how good they are doing so fast. Everyday is good news for either me or my team. I smile a lot more. I thought I was very lucky and happy then...but now I am reminded daily to dream bigger and it can be possible...anything I think of and dream! I get to have a lot of fun and I basically got a brand-new family once I joined the It Works family. I love my family; but it's nice having more people who believe in us and help us along the way with support and friendship. I have made a good living with multiple businesses; and it was actually a hobby. I enjoyed referring others, helping others find home jobs...but this one is my favorite and my passion. I hope many people give it a try. Until Dec 31st you can earn a $10,000 bonus! I get to take vacations every other week; seriously. With a real job no one can do that. Every other week my husband & I go out of town to visit his family. It's a great peaceful vacationf or us. Not much maybe to many people; but that freedom is incredible and we can of course go to other areas to visit when we want. No asking bosses for time off! The money, friendships, training, support...everything is amazing. If we choose to do parties; there's no hauling tons of stuff like with my last companies. With this; I can fit everything in one purse and the parties are usually only an hour or so. I love other companies, I love to shop and I love supporting businesses...so even though I think many companies are fantastic out there...It works is my favorite! They are also a great company that has wonderful training and a company car program you can earn! It's AMAZING! Contact me for more info: Info@davianewman.com www.davianewman.com

Journal of the day

I was certain there was no recovery from deployment on most military marriages; hehe. Not a laughing matter but I was pretty bitter. I was angry certain units I knew people in weren't doing more to support Miltary families upon homecoming hearing so much about service members who deployed and came back suicidal, heading for divorce or just not the same as before they left. Of course I don't blame the military but I still always will think more can be done to help military families overcome or get through homecoming hard ships. I've been happy to see my marriage finally getting so much stronger when there was times I felt so alone and helpless. Loving someone in the military is hard work. At least if you're a faithful and loyal wife that is. Sure we've had our ups and downs but I guess no couple has had a perfect relationship in most cases. What matters is that we're better than we have ever been before and to me that means more than anyone would imagine. I've learned you can't listen to others and taking advice from people usually won't help being no one knows both sides of the story nor what boh of you have been through. Having someone to talk to is fantastic but its best to keep your marriage sacred and love each other enough to respect one another and finally communicate without anger and listen instead of speaking so much...and of course start putting the others happiness as a priority. I know I was the best wife I could be and I know my husband has accomplished so much. We went through hell after deployment and it was worth it to be where we are now. Happy and learning more each day to treat each other Better, fight fair and be supportive nonstop. No ones perfect but a marriage sure is hard work and all about growing together. In glad we were able to understand how to accept one another and grow together. The respect and love has grown way more. I'm a lot happier and more comfortable. Marriage truly can work when the two people finally find out they do not want to be apart.

Closet must-haves

Black slacks; perfect for a date night or job interview

Plain white top; perfect for errands or to wear under a blazer or sweater

Denim jacket;I prefer the crop style so it looks more stylish

Red or white sundress. You can't go wrong with a sundress; especially one in one of those colors

Black sweater; perfect to throw over tanks for more coverage

Black classy dress; Perfect for a job interview or a night for cocktails with work colleagues.

Blue jeans that are classic; no holes. Great for casual Friday at the job or to run errands.

Black sexier dress for the infamous girls night outs

Decorative jeans. These are always my favorite because they'll make a casual look look much more sexier

Black yoga pants; they're comfy and great for errands, lounging or the gym. Not to mention they're super sexy compared to plain sweats.

Excited

    I am so excited because my husband has been gone AGAIN for work even though deployment is over; and I am going to be able to see him soon. I can not ever reveal dates but it will be sooner than later and I am sooo excited! I can not wait to sleep next to him, cook him breakfast and just have time together. I hate being apart and when he does call me; the reception is horrible so we do not get to speak long and can barely hear one another. I hate being apart. I really can not wait until we have a few months just of normal living. It hurts decorating and sleeping alone. It hurts going places and all my friends are with their boyfriends or husbands. It hurts even seeing cute couples at restaurants or walking around town. I miss him protecting me and being around me. I miss how good he smells. I miss how safe I feel around him. I just miss him.
