Default Helloooo Daahhhhlings! (insert British accent!)

Allow me to introduce myself.....(how many intros really start out that way??).
I am Rainbow D. Clown from Barnum Entertainment. I just moved up to the tri-state area of Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky just over a year ago. I lived in Central Texas in the lovely city of Killeen where Rainbow evolved. I bought an existing entertainment business that was "busy" doing about one party every 3 weeks. By the time I left, the company known as Special Occasions represented 8 entertainers, some of which I trained, and secured 29 reoccuring monthly events. I left because I was ending my non-supportive and abusive marraige and had no family there. I was proud of what I had built and learned everything on my own thru books and videos. God gave me talent and opportunity and the strength to move on. I moved up here where I grew up to be with family while doing so, I met and married the man of my dreams. I was a clown and his name was Barnum. Was there any question?? Besides that, his first name is Rich! How could I pass up a Rich Barnum??!! Anyway, I've spent the last year getting settled in to an area that doesn't quite support the amount of events I'm used to, and I was actually looking to possibly just turning to clowning as a hobby. Although I've done many events here, I wasn't sure if it would be a way of life for me. But I've been happy enjoying what a marraige should be and I was content with that. But now, my husband, (a retired First Sargent in the US Army), has a new job in Henderson, Kentucky and we are looking to move there within the next few months when school is out. I look forward to meeting and networking with other clowns which is something I've had (or was allowed) little opportunity to do in the past. I'm a huge networker! I love to make a sale and would gladly help anyone. I'm very proficient in face painting and balloon twisting. I tend to be stationary or work table to table for restaurants. I have wrote a few gospel skits in the past working with primarily children, no other professional clowns. I would like to pick up my desire to work in the ministry again. If anyone wants to jam, let me know. One thing I definitely want to put out there...(in my past experience of the few professional clowns I have spoke with)....I don't want to be anyone's competition. I would love to help you, and may need to call on someone to help me at times. I am business oriented and would love to grow my business again, but, I believe God gave us all these gifts, and if someone is blessed by a job, then I am happy His plan is working. I'm not here to hinder it. In fact, let me be a blessing to you! Well, I guess that covers my introduction. Oh.....no I'm not British, and yes, he is related. I'll share the story if you wish!

Keep having fun, Baby!
