The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

The more I think about any time of the year where you don’t have to deal with Amway bullshit and Amway assholes is the most wonderful time of the year!

But you know what I mean. The holiday season is upon us. Busy busy and I’m so glad I don’t have to combine happy happy holiday stuff with depressing Amway bullshit.
In our family we alternate who has everyone over on Christmas day and that person cooks the turkey and everyone else brings other dishes. But as we all get older and marriages and new families we all kind of split off. You can’t make everyone happy all the time and you have to divide your time once new relatives come on the horizon. That still means getting together with everyone at some point or another around Christmas Day. Add on to that all the Christmas baking and shopping and all the other activities. How do people in Amway manage it all? They don’t. Amway activities come first. Family get togethers take a back seat.

All the bananas that help on this blog are swamped this time of year enjoying the holidays so we’re slowing things down. Can’t be everywhere at once. The bananas who provide content must be too busy with more important things this month because the well is currently empty. The banana who manages the blog and posting is swamped with other stuff and so is the comment moderator so they don’t have a lot of free time to help out here right now. All of that combined means there will be less posts being uploaded in December and a slow down in approving the comments for publishing. And a slow down in me looking and responding. Its December. No big surprise we’re all busy.
That’s the joy of not being in Amway – we all have lives! And we all love the holiday season especially when we don’t have the Amway stress added on to it.

All you former ambots know exactly what I mean right!
Got a couple of reprints coming up, unfortunately not one of my favorites because the banana who posts doesn’t like posting photos but I still have a couple of fun ones coming. Just not coming that fast.
 
And really people. Do you want to spend the holiday season reading blogs? Get away from the computer. Go for a walk on the beach. Go caroling. Go to a Christmas pageant.

And for those who are struggling with a loved one caught inside the Amway cult I hope you don’t end up with any shitty Amway products under the Christmas tree. I hope your ambot doesn’t destroy your holidays. It’s a hard time of the year when you see someone you love being emotionally and financially destroyed by this evil. I hope things get better and you get some joy this Christmas.

Happy holidays!

    1. Hi Cassette Tape. Not going anywhere. Just slowing down to accommodate everyone's busy times over the holidays. 4am? Who's up that early? That's when ambots are just going to bed!

  2. Hey... I go to bed at 4 am... it's 4:35 right now. I always look at your blog before noding off. This makes me sad

    1. Hey Nick. Don't be sad we're just slowing down this month cause everyone's busy. Even the readers are too busy to look at blogs in December. There's only been about 700 readers today so readership has dropped a bit. Going to bed at 4am. I thought that was just for people in Amway doing the night owl and after night owl meetings!

    2. That and janitors. Honestly it's the greatest. You know what traffic's like at 3am? Probably similar to traffic in heaven.

    3. Nick - I'm sure there are many shift workers up and about at 4am or going to bed around then. You'd think traffic would be light everywhere at 3am. Not so.

  3. I've gotten up at 3 a.m. for over a decade (ever since I got into Mary Kay) She established a 5 a.m. club but I thought that was for wimps, hence the 3 a.m. get up time. In the last few months I've been trying to make myself stay in bed till 4 a.m. It's hard to do. Mornings are awesome. I get to read Anna the Banana (but I have to laugh very quietly) and do other computer research. And, no, I don't sell Mary Kay anymore. I was sent an anonymous e-mail years ago to PinkTruth.com and it rocked my world. It's another anti-mlm blog. It's awesome.

    I read Fox News the TheBlaze every morning after I read your blog. If I get too depressed reading the news, it's back to Anna.

    I don't know who you are and probably never will, but that's O.K. Just know lots of people think you're great!

    AGain, Merry Christmas

    1. Hey Cassette Tape. I'm mostly sleeping at 3am! and 4am. And 5am!

    2. Cassette Tape,
      An anonymous email - that is a fantastic thought. I may have to figure out how to anonymously send a link to the Merchants of Deception book. Doubt my friend would disobey upline and read it, but I have to keep trying until something reaches him.

  4. C'mon, Anna. Don't you know sleep is for slackers.

    Freedom is having wonderful job. Jobs are awesome. They provide all the necessities in life as well as stability. I'm thankful to my boss. Oh, wait. That would be me! I love hard work and will work until I can't anymore; then I will volunteer. Can't wait for that. My goal is to visit hospitals and rock crack babies and read to patients in nursing homes. Wouldn't that be a blast? I want to read the classics. O.K., sorry for rambling.

    1. LOL - sleep is for slackers! Haven't heard that in years. Not since the last Scamway meeting I went to! LOL!

      Oh my god don't tell an Amway ambot what your goal is. First off its not a greedy materialist thing. Second if you don't do it the Amway assholes will taunt you - just think of all those rock crack babies who are dying because you're not visiting them.

    2. Ambots are so insistent on you having a dream, but if your dream doesn't involve Amway, they might call it stupid or that you'll never achieve it without Amway. If that happens, I like the idea of calling the ambot a negative dream stealer and storming out of the meeting.

      Delete
    3. That's very true Anonymous. The biggest negative dream stealers around are Amway ambots.

    4. FREEDOM IS-- sitting on top of my beautiful world of excess-- that's excess in-- happiness, fortune, good friends, loving family, and laughing at all the wanna-be big business owners that come to your blog and try to call you a looser.

      Merry Christmas :-)

    5. Ambot Dick - that sounds like a good place to be sitting! Merry Christmas to you too!

Comments are moderated but we publish just about everything. Even brainwashed ambots who show up here to accuse us of not trying hard enough and that we are lazy, quitters, negative, unchristian dreamstealers. Like we haven’t heard that Amspeak abuse from the assholes in our upline!

If your comment didn’t get published it could be one of these reasons:
1. Is it the weekend? We don’t moderate comments on weekends. Maybe not every day during the week either. Patience.
2. Racist/bigoted comments? Take that shit somewhere else.
3. Naming names? Public figures like politicians and actors and people known in Amway are probably OK – the owners, Diamonds with CDs or who speak at functions, people in Amway’s publicity department who write press releases and blogs. Its humiliating for people to admit their association with Amway so respect their privacy if they’re not out there telling everyone about the love of their life.
4. Gossip that serves no purpose. There are other places to dish about what Diamonds are having affairs or guessing why they’re getting divorced. If you absolutely must share that here – don’t name names. I get too many nosy ambots searching for this. Lets not help them find this shit.
5. Posting something creepy anonymously and we can’t track your location because you’re on a mobile device or using hide my ass or some other proxy. I attracted an obsessed fan and one of my blog administrators attracted a cyberstalker. Lets keep it safe for everyone. Anonymous is OK. Creepy anonymous and hiding – go fuck yourselves!
6. Posting something that serves no purpose other than to cause fighting.
7. Posting bullshit Amway propaganda. We might publish that comment to make fun of you. Otherwise take your agenda somewhere else. Not interested.
8. Notice how this blog is written in English? That's our language so keep your comments in English too. If you leave a comment written in another language then we either have to use Google translate to put it into English so everyone can understand what you wrote or we can hit the Delete button. Guess which one is easier for us to do?
9. We suspect you're a troublemaking Amway asshole.
10. Your comment got caught in the spam filter. Gets checked occasionally. We’ll get to you eventually and approve it as long as it really isn’t spam.
