This woman joined my yahoo group about 2 years ago...and WHAT A WOMAN! She immigrated here as an adult and has built a wonderful life for herself and her family thru her efforts and her husband's. She's the mom to three adorable kids (I've seen pictures...they are gorgeous kids). Here's the "interview" I did with her about 2 weeks ago.
1. I am not expert in particular area. I like branching into new categories because in the process as I educate myself and that's it's just like another dimension opens up for me.
2. I've been selling online since 2001 and adore every minute for me. It's so thrilling for me, that I cannot call it a business. It's just gives me too much fun. researching & learning about new things gives me as much thrill as making a profit.
3. For me being able to immigrate to this country, start a new life and being fully accepted by fellow Americans, that's the lottery I always wanted to win. And I did. I will never stop struggling with the question - why me?
Why was I able to escape without being caught and thrown in jail like other desperate people?
When I sat on a lounge chair in Mexico behind rope fence and watched the vendors carry literally their whole store on their backs, I was thinking this could have been me, how come I am so fortunate and these people barely make $50 a day?
When I see my classmates moms dying and leaving small kids behind ( this October & November we lost 2 moms due to breast cancer) I think - this could have been me.
Have a great weekend, Beth!
Let me tell you, Katarina has earned her spot on the beach. She made adorable bras for both BLINGMYBRA campaigns on eBay and she's a RESEARCH FIEND! She finds the Best examples of things.
But check out some of her items: ok but THIS is my favorite one...
Slovak Coffee
This is soooo yummy!! Don't buy it all, leave one more for me... LOL
The woman's fashion sense is totally awesome, very European and tasteful ...like this... Italain Leather Bucket Bag style purse.
I like this too - not that it would fit ONE leg... but it's adorable Ladies Blanket Dress

Katarina is One smart lady and does extremely well when searching out a "goodie" for resale. I wish I had 1/4 of her memory storage for items to watch for.
Great Blog Beth !
