About Shame On Me by Gabbriella Conte-fReado

BELIEVE in ME

"You may ask 'What does the Believe in Me' on the mirror have to do with the book. Well in my own personal life I do alot of praying and talking to God while putting my makeup on. During one of those sessions over the last 13 years of my life while talking to God about the direction I had chosen to take my life in. I felt strongly when asking Him 'what now Lord?' He gently impressed those words on my heart 'Believe in Me' not only to believe in Him to take care of all that I would ever need, but to also during this time to tell myself 'Believe in ME' meaning I had to also believe in MYSELF, that I would be capable of getting through any tough time that would come my way. He would not fail me if I would not fail myself. I have hung on to those words many times in the course of the last 13 years of my life. It has made me who I am today. And this book is because of that. Without believing in God and myself I would have never written my experience. It has opened up a whole new world for me. One I now know was deep within me all along just waiting to jump out! Today I am experiecing a happiness I never knew would be a part of my life. Not to say that I was not happy yesterday...because I was very happy within myself & my life yesterday. But when I look at all that I have accomplished and see in the future more of my life taking this direction. I would not change a breath and do it any other way. The bad has made be better, the weak times have made me stronger and the tough times have turned me inside out & upside down to become the balanced woman I am today. Yes I still have weaknesses and down times like all of you might, but I bounce back so much quicker than before. I have become more reslient to life. I am eager see what is next for me & where that takes me. I always did have a heart for adventure & my life has been just that! Blessings to all!"

Happy Mom's Day !

For those of you who do not yet know and have not read the newsletter sent out last week, Gabbriella's Sampler will be off fo a short time. participants have backed away without notice so we can not go forward until those who wanted promotions can send in their samples. This is fine as life does happen. But in the mean time to keep up with life at the Sampler why not follow me over at Shame On Me Book Blog and see what is happening there! I alos have a site for the book where you can learn more also. I always have to keep busy. Join me there if you like. I will still post here from time to time to let you know the flow of things. I am at the present placing samples from the tiny amount of contributors I have left in my daily shipments out of the house so they still get noticed and promoted that way so if you are interested in that please send in your samples. when I ge a substancial amount of contributors again we will start the boxes again. If you are new to this idea please consider joining in.

Every Mom have a wonderful Mom's Day!

NEARING COMPLETION!!!!

Just as soon as I get the final copy of the cover illustration for my book off to the publisher it will go & very, very soon after it will be listed on Amazon.com for sale with all the other amazing books out there! I am so excited as I write this! It has been a very great 5 months which I had off work & decided to publish this book. Without this time off for surgery it would have never happened/ Well...that is just 1 reason I wrote the book. (I had the time available) Another reason is because of the choices the ex decided to make with our son & I. I guess in a way I really have him to thank. Because I have never felt so free of him in all my life until I put I had this down in print. It is a good feeling to be even more confident in myself than ever before.

HIPPIE CHICK JEWELRY & DESIGN

Hippie Chick is in the Sampler this month! Kari makes uniquely designed jewels to adorn you. Her samples arrived yesterday and will be a great addition to our box.  You will receive a lovely necklace presented in an organza bag, which is great for storing jewelry in. You also will get a coupon good on your purchase from her shop. Her selection of samples is a great one to add to our Mother's Day Sampler which goes on sale April 1. Stop by Kari' shop and see all the other amazing items she has lined up for the season!

Well it is finally here...the day I return to work!  After "5" long months off from work due to hand surgery.  I miss the people but I sure could get used to not going to work everyday! It will be a bitter sweet to be back. 5 years & I can retire so that is what I keep reminding myself! Plus I do know already I need to have the other hand done so within the year there will be a bit more time off but hopefully this surgery will go much better than the last.
you all have a marvelous day as I know I will.  It's like the first day of school!

MAGNOLIA BLOSSOMS

March 10th the Magnolia Blossoms opened
up for us to enjoy! They had fallen from the tree in my son's yard during the snow storm last

It worked!!!
