I made it! I'm on the TeamWorks Design Team

Today was a long one… I waited by the computer for the announcement of the new design team for Memory Works. All the consultants that were involved got on-line and were writing back and forth all day. We were all anxious. Then one of the consultants thought we should create poetry based on the Christmas song, “Twas the Night Before Christmas”. You can see in the text below what we came out with. It was a great way to pass the time away. In the part that usually says “Now Dasher, and Dancer, etc.” we all added our names. I was so anxious to find out if I was on the list (I thought I was going to have a coronary and have to borrow Rob’s pacemaker). Then when the announcement came from Headquarters, they had taken the phrase about Dasher and Dancer and put our names in. That is how they announced that we had won. It is pretty cleaver. So some exciting news! The new design team for Memory Works was announced today….and I’m on it! I’m pretty excited. Thanks to all of you that supported my efforts! Thank you Julie for being with me this afternoon while we impatiently waited for the results. This is great company with great opportunities. Happy Holidays to all of you and thanks for sharing my enthusiasm!

MemoryWorks is pleased to announce the brand new TeamWorks, the new support team for consultants! We are so excited to compile a complete team of consultants specialists working together to promote, educate, and inspire MemoryWorks and our wonderful consultants... After receiving and reviewing many wonderful applications from our talented consultants we are thrilled to announce the new members of our TeamWorks team...

Our TeamWorks applicants were so excited for the announcement, they created this fun poem on the message board...we coudn't resist sharing the announcement with their fun rendetion of "Twas the Night Before Christmas"....
