(EDIT: Maria thank you for the feedback! i miss you, i love you- and i wish there was a little travel-Star Trek-beam-me-to-Mt.Vernon- possibility:) thanks also for the text & call from Danielle & Nicole:O)
i really thought that i would have a hard time choosing but after wearing each of them for a full day it was an easy decision on which fit me (physically & personality) the best. the Ainsworth!
It's okay that you didn't vote but it's so funny that even though it's not about you, i felt really awkward posting *5* pictures of my face in one post. i thought, "Gosh, this seems maybe, a little conceited. But...there are 5 pairs! And it's fun to do a poll! Surely no one will think poorly of me over it."
But i still felt unsure. And then no one voted! and i thought it again- people thought it was weird, or silly.
But i'm moving past thinking about what people are thinking about me. Because *that* is what's really conceited. What is prideful. Being so worried about how people see me that i only do things that are really comfortable, so that *I* don't have to feel vulnerable.
People have better things to do.
So, thank you, dear readers- for letting me make my decision:O) It was a really fun experience!
I would encourage you to check out Warby Parker - they do an awesome program donating a pair of glasses for every pair purchased. How about that, eh?
Right now i am trying to plan for 2 birthday parties and 13 Arbonne events in the month of JUNE! AH! yikeseroni.
I have a pin board for Oliver's Little Gentleman's 1st Birthday party & for Emory's Hello Kitty Hurrah but haven't been able to devote much time to actually making things happen.
i bought straws. that's it. this could get ugly:O)
hopefully i will be in a place of preparation to share some fun party DIY's in the next weeks.
How do you feel your self consciousness affects you? Does it hold you back or keep you humble?
And what is your ultimate party tip or go to game/food/treat? help a girl out:)
For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline. 2 Timothy 1:7
This verse is going to be a help for me in this season of life. Especially with Arbonne, I am moving far out of my comfort zone and depending on God to see me through it. Self discipline is an area i have been lacking in for a while...well, maybe for forever! I am so thankful that God equips us and grows us in new/hard experiences.

the Ainsworths are my favorite! :)
gooood choice! ;) and yes, please start working on that travel star-trek beam. i love you & jillians recent posts about this....its SO true. any kind of putting ourself out there (especially as women) feels unnatural for us....and like a ripe opportunity for self-esteem to go down the drain if we don't remind ourself of the truth! i've thought about taking the comments section off my blog so that im TRULY posting what i intend to. but i know that many times, i get excited to see that so-and-so has posted, but i don't really have time to peruse the interwebs...so i read a post on my google reader as fast as i can and then move on to the next (i'm sure you can relate!)! if i remember and i had something to say i try to go back and say it. anyway....i love you regardless & keep up the posts :)
I voted in person. duh! :)
Sorry I didn't vote..I thought you'd already announced choosing the "keepers" on facebook and I didn't want to vote for the wrong ones. haha. ;-) (Sorry to be one to add to your worry!)
Your parties are always wonderful, so no worries there! With this heat, it might be fun to do a Hello Kitty Water Party. ;-)
And YAY for so many Arbonne parties lined up!! Look at you go! (O:
Love you friend! (O:
