I have some favorite people I follow on Twitter that amuse me (in a good way), school me and inspire me. My eyes were on my laptop practically all last weekend, working on my business plan and website redesign simultaneously. (Both have completed first drafts! Check out the site here, if you’re inclined.) I would…… Continue Reading

44 x 44 – A Healthy Organic Buzz
Most of this post, as indicated below, was written in June 2009 on my defunct personal blog. Now that Michael Pollan has appeared on Oprah and Food Inc. was highly recommended for the home DVD library, I’m hopeful that this organic buzz will become an epidemic. My husband was the leader of the food revolution…… Continue Reading
The Meetup – February 2010
Hello and good February to all! I am considering this month a success, even though I am only crossing one thing off my two item list. I am going to work faster and harder today then ever to finish my site redesign. I’m close (so close) to being done. And I think Groundhog Day is…… Continue Reading
Vintage Actions Mmmm
Just loving these vintage actions… When my site redesign is done (please cross your fingers for Monday), I will make these mine. Or at least give myself the time to make them mine. Happy Friday! Photo Credits: 1. Vintage Dahlia, 2. vintage flowers, 3. forest vintage, 4. old car and film action, 5. Vintage Seasons…… Continue Reading
44 x 44 – Setbacks
**it happens… It’s been almost a month that I’ve been focused on this goal. I expected the setbacks to come later, but life sometimes has its own agenda. The key is I’m able to point to exactly why I didn’t lose any poundage this past week: weekend away with wine & friends, wine brain making…… Continue Reading
Goodbye Lovely Weekend, Hello Monday
I spent the weekend in Boston with two of my best friends, attending the annual Wine Expo. It’s always great to see them. We really don’t get to spend time with each other, living in different towns and states. We are moms and wives first. All other things come in second. It’s back to “reality”…… Continue Reading
44 x 44 – What Do You Want to Do?
Having the goal of losing 44 lbs. by my birthday in August is a big goal. I’ve already stated that if I don’t get all the way to 44lbs., I’ll be okay with that. But what else do I want to accomplish? Smaller goals are good for my confidence. Who doesn’t like to check off…… Continue Reading

My entry for the Color-Your-Own Valentine’s Day Card Design Contest sponsored by Cool Mom Picks and Etsy. It’s a big hit with my 7-year-old, so I might have a good chance 🙂 You can see the other entries at Cool Mom Picks or enter your own by clicking the button below.… Continue Reading
Martin Luther King
His words never fail to move me. His words are what we should remember about this man: I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. …where little black boys…… Continue Reading
Mid-Month Goal Check-in
I’ve been feeling like I just need to get through my two goals this month, so I can move on to the “real” work. Not a good way to think about what I’m doing. These goals ARE the real work and the crux of where I want to go. So, I think a little head-banging…… Continue Reading
