Cincinnati Regional

The regional in Cincinnati was so much fun! I am always better after spending time with demonstrators and Stampin' Up! employees. I was pleased that I had the energy needed to support my amazing team of facilitators. They really rocked it. I was sooo happy with the stamping and business content! We arrived around 8 p.m. on Wednesday and just had a bite to eat at the hotel. The next morning was deliciously lazy-we met at 11:00 for lunch and to head to the convention center to get set up for rehearsals. Lunch was at Chipotle. We hit it just right because right after we sat down the line went out the door! The rest of the day was all about getting ready for the seminar. Rehearsals went well and set up was a breeze. That night we ate at a brewery next to Chipotle that had the yummiest food.

Friday and Saturday were a blur of Stampin' Up! regional fun-I swapped, smiled, hung up demonstrator swaps on the display boards, gave feedback to my team, and got caught up with Jill.

Bonnie and the great facilitators


We flew home early Sunday and I napped and then went to bed early. I love my own little bed!

  2. Hi Bonnie! I've thought of you often! I checked out your blog...In all honesty, I still feel the pain of all that happened in April. Seeing your regional highlights made me realize that my summer of sadness, confusion, financial worry, and loss has not yet completely healed. I'll always hold you in a dear place as one of the few SU! leaders that care about their staff! For now, know that I miss ya!!!!! Lori Hatton
