Z~BO

Good Morning, Friends!
Yesterday I completed my last radiation treatment! It was a bittersweet moment for me as I have grown close to my radiation therapists after seeing them almost every day for 15 treatments. I asked them if anyone has ever cried because they wouldn't be seeing them again? They said most people say they never want to see them again! HONESTLY, I could not have asked for a better team! They helped me through days when I had surprise tears running down my face and on other days they laughed so hard with me that I'm sure we were heard down the hallways! What a gift!!!
I am so GRATEFUL for this season of life because it has opened my eyes to so many things:
TRUST: Trust God to write my story, to grow me and care for me. Choose to trust His faithfulness over my feelings!
LOVE: Receive the amazing LOVE of God through YOU and my care team! I am so humbled by the prayers sent to me by people I have never met in person, the gifts given by family and friends, and so MANY check-in messages asking how I am doing! He wrapped His arms around me by the people He put in my life!
GRATEFULNESS: Learning to appreciate each day for what it holds and not fear what tomorrow may bring! I am not and have never been in control of my life. Each breath I take is a gift from My Creator! How could I have 2 surgeries with NO PAIN afterwards? 15 rounds of radiation with very little if no side effects?? NO Chemotherapy?? Only by your prayers for me and His loving care!
So now what?
I really don't know! God has clearly directed me to close out Z~BO. It was a gift from Him for a season. It was nothing I pursued on my own and it has been quite the ride these past 20 years! I learned how much I love people and adventure! (I had no fear in trying new large venues like traveling to Las Vegas to be a vendor at the NFR or other national conventions.) It was hard work, but I loved it so much that it didn't seem like work to me! Unfortunately, my sweet husband carried the brunt of the physical work with no complaints! That's LOVE when you see how much someone loves doing something and you sacrifice your own comfort and preferences! Thank you, RANDY, for allowing me to experience something I didn't know I would love so much! Then there's MOM - always there with bells on! She loved Z~BO so very much and she worked tirelessly as our number one top sales person! 🥰
Angie: My word girl and my inspiration! Did you know for several years she wrote a newsletter for us??? From the beginning, she sacrificed her time to help me foo-foo the booth! I was busy putting things in place and she was creatively displaying outfits. Her creative talent is really something to be admired!
Abby: My sweet little niece who told her kindergarten class that her aunt had a business called Z~BO all because of her! I will never forget when we had our back against the wall during covid and decided to try going LIVE on Facebook. She had so much fun that she asked what her job would be called because she loved doing it. Now she is on a new path as an elementary school teacher!
I have so many people to thank and be grateful for and each one of you are one of them!

ONE DAY AT A TIME.... I will keep you posted when I have a final date for sales. I am hopeful it will be soon. I am open to suggestions on where I could possibly set up to sell (preferable in air conditioning!!) 😆
TNL! I am working with Angie and Abby to be with you for at least one more TNL!
STAY TUNED!

NOW SOLD OUT! Thank you so much!
