November 11, 2008 by

I posted awhile ago about hosting a “House Party”:
http://melziemomsbargains.blogspot.com/2008/08/host-house-party.html

Over the past year, I have applied for several different ones and have never been accepted. I was actually read to just give up. Then, this morning, I got a message that I had finally been accepted to host one. I’m so excited 🙂

So…if you’ve been applying and are feeling discouraged because you haven’t gotten one yet, don’t give up!

Here’s the one that I got in on:
