I rehearse in my head what I'm going to say. I used to write out what I was going to say, but I don't need to write it out now.<br /><br />So, that's the best advice I have: rehearse what to say. And rehearse being nice: for all you know, they're busy. The last thing you need is attitude in your voice that will detract from your message!<br /><br />(Nothing personal. I always have to remind myself that you catch more flies with honey than vinegar. So I thought I'd remind you in case you're like me!)Kristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10010855220044881380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-600523820883022344.post-25323290389031260232009-07-20T14:13:04.678-04:002009-07-20T14:13:04.678-04:00I am totally in the same boat!

It's officially made my list to call her, but I'm like you - I hate doing it! I've decided I'm definitely calling tomorrow if I have no response - I'm glad to know I'm not the only one in this boat though!Princess Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04707441750165767852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-600523820883022344.post-1659197269274540422009-07-20T13:34:40.944-04:002009-07-20T13:34:40.944-04:00I've sent two over the course of a little over...I've sent two over the course of a little over 2 weeks.<br />I'm ready to call, but all our correspondance has been via email so far - plus I get totally nervous to call people :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-600523820883022344.post-85100121313980095752009-07-20T13:33:09.459-04:002009-07-20T13:33:09.459-04:00Did you send only one email?

If you have only sent one email, then I would try calling them. Annoying, I know, but that's what I would do.Kristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10010855220044881380noreply@blogger.com
