Life is whatever I make it, these are my influences................

Hi All,

Things are really coming together for me! I have the best support system ever! My Family keeps me grounded! The children - my inspiration, my love - my anchor and he never lets me go! There is nothing like having someone in your life you is always there for you and for knowing there is no ulterior motive because you have no ties that bind other than love.
But moving on to my influences, having gone from one child to six almost immediately, I can sympathize with parents, wanting to by quality items for any occasions for multiple children can be expensive.  I try to provide beautiful baskets, careboxes and carepaks that are of good quality as well as visually pleasing at a very low cost.
I've been told that the industry standard is to take cost of supplies and multiply by three. Hello? Recession??!!
One look at my baskets and their prices and you will know immediately I do not following  industry standards!  Visit our new website and check out or Easter Baskets, Careboxes and personalcarepaks at recession proof prices! All can be personalized for anyone or any occasion!

MY PATH TO SUCCESS

So many business blogs are directed at profiting from their posts. While I would love to have that be the outcome of my blog as well, I just really wanted to have a way of detailing my path to success.
Today I saw this on you tube and I thought how beautiful, how true!

It reminded me that it is never about what you say but how you say it and the strength words have spoken or written. I am known for having an extremely cutting tongue, recent changes in my life brought forward exactly how much more effective I can be with others just by not being quite so curt.

I started my company because I love to bring smiles to the faces of others.  I love to see everyone happy.
Everyone it would seem but me, I have stood in my own way for years and now I'm stepping out of my way!
I'm going to let that smiling, trusting, happy person I am when I travel overseas.
Watch the video and always remember the power yours words, choose uplifting words, find a better way of saying something, lets coat our words with love, there is enough hate in the world!

Blogging

Not sure yet if I'm blogging correctly yet, but I do like the ability to put my thoughts down in writing. Probably should separate my professional from my personal blog but my name is Pamela Parnell, and I am Personally Packaged, to separate the two would be so feel free to follow me on my journey as I try to maintain my home, a full time career, a  rocky relationship and build my business.
Our lives are what we make it, I'm going to make sure mine is successful, full of happiness and and joy.
Look for Personally Packaged to do great things in the future and Pamela Parnell will be the face and hands behind it!

Thank You!!!

To all my customers that supported me through this holiday. Valentine's day has been my best  so far! I had so much fun completing these orders and allow me to say I feel so blessed to have so many people rooting for me and supporting me. To be able to receive profit doing something I love sooooo much, I never dreamed this could be!
www.personallypackaged.com  save the web address,  the  site should be live in a couple of weeks!

PRODUCTION!

Fervently working to get my Valentine's Day paks out.  6 more to go, or until I get another order! I feel so blessed!  anywho, break is over, back to work!

Too busy to blog?? No such thing!

Wow-will you look at this, as I'm getting my ducks in a row I've been almost too busy to blog! I set a Valentine's Day quota and I have to say, I am so blessed with such a supportive family that I am able to juggle multiple tasks without falling on my face. My family keeps me steady and grounded!  Anyway, it's quite fun to watch the boys try to help with the business, mostly packaging and maybe deliveries but all seem to have taken an interest in building a business and I would have gone through this exercise JUST to plant those seeds. 
That, however, is not why I am doing it.
It is Monday and my baskets have to ship by Wednesday LATEST!  What to do, what to do!!! 
I know, some people would love to be in my position and have orders to fill, I know I am blessed and I give thanks to him for his blessings each day. 
Well, back to work, nice talking to you.  Website up soon, www.personallypackaged.com
Bye for now.
