Looking For Advice From Those More Experienced

The other day, I was asked to speak on my area of expertise for a DVD that will be handed out at upcoming networking and training events. I’m not so much worried about what I have to say (though I am hoping I can do so without a plethora of “ums” and sound confident - [...]

It Doesn’t Mean I Don’t Appreciate Him

But I just had to throw the flowers away. I waited until last night to tell him so he wouldn’t be surprised. He knows that they’ve been messing with my allergies this whole time. I just couldn’t take it any more. So when the early blooms started dying I told him that I was going [...]

I Wasn’t Expecting That: Take II

Holy Cow! I was just contacted by one of the networking groups I joined. First they asked me if I could be their expert at the next meeting, but I have my friend’s wedding that same weekend. Well, he just responded back to me now inviting me to be their expert on a DVD they’ll [...]

Not What I Was Expecting

But wow! I just had my first, full-fledged phone call with a public relations gal. She was pitching me her clients (and one of her best friends) and wow, they’re some fun and interesting women. Now I have to sit down and figure out just how to reach out to them and utilize their expertise [...]

Life Lesson: Don’t Rush the Season

Logically by now, we should all know this. But really, how exciting is it to see the first fruit of the season? Walking through the farmer’s market, I get so excited when the first strawberries appear or the first peaches. The other day at the grocery store, it was the first of those crazy addictive [...]

Friends

I’ve been thinking about friendships a lot over the past few days. I’ve decided that honestly, I’ve got the best group of friends that a gal could ask for. That includes my old friends, my new friends, my online friends and my biz related friends. Each and every one of them are just wonderful.
In the [...]

The Not So Wordless Wednesday Edition

The anniversary flowers have exploded (and yes, my allergies are still raging on when I’m near them)…

These would be the birthday flowers from one of my best friends…

And this one is just for our dear friends that thought they lost me (old blog) and are now reading along…

Let the Festivities Continue!

First, I should be honest. I’m a birthday whore. I believe that birthdays should be at least a full week long. So that means the birthday girl, or boy, gets to do the sort of things that they want to do, eat at the kind of restaurants that they want to eat at, for at [...]

I’m Just Going to Have to Suck it Up

For the past week or so, my Google Reader has been on over-drive. It’s not that there’s any more posts than usual to read - though thanks to Twitter, I have found some new blogs to follow. It’s more that I just haven’t really had the time or the desire to catch up.
Currently, I have [...]

Anniversary Flowers

These are the beautiful (if not overwhelmingly aromatic) lilies that the hubby bought me yesterday for our anniversary. Today, twice as many blooms are opened (making things even more aromatic still) than yesterday, and at least a good dozen flowers are still closed and not yet blooming. I’m sure by Sunday the bouquet [...]
