How easy is it to leave a comment on your blog?

January 15, 2013

Deviating a bit from fitness, gardening, family balance and other topics I like to write about, to talk about leaving comments on a blog. Now, I'm just assuming that if you are a blogger, you already know the importance of comments on your blog. When I moved my blog from one platform to this self-hosted [...]

Do you have a blogging plan or are you winging it?

January 1, 2013

  Do you have a blogging plan, that is a written out plan for the week or month so that you know ahead of time what you are going to blog about? Or do you do like I have done in the past and make a goal of one new blog post a week or [...]

What’s more important, how or if you build your dream board?

December 31, 2012

*screenshot taken of an example of my dreamboard on Oprah.com   Dream boards are not a new thing.

Fueling up with Peach Blueberry Bliss Oatmeal for P90X

December 11, 2012

I did it again. I had my workout time set for 8:30am. But, instead of getting my workout clothes on and heading to the basement at 8:30, I got "busy" with other stuff. And then it got too late to get my P90X Plyo workout in because I had an appointment at 11am to record [...]

August 13, 2012

  I have to admit, I love apps. Before I got my first iPhone I remember friends or my boys showing me images and games on their iPhones or iPods. “How did you do that? Is that some expensive program or something?” And they would reply with these befuddling words, “It’s an App.” It’s an [...]

Are you out of gas? Are distractions stealing your time?

August 9, 2012

I don’t remember the model or make of the car that we drove away from our wedding in. It was tan, I know that much. It was also my inlaw’s car. At the last minute, we switched vehicles and they drove our old car home to Amarillo, 11 hours..I really should have been more grateful [...]

Mom..have you seen my other mitten?

December 11, 2011

Every winter for years, I tried to find the perfect solution for all our winter hats, scarves, mittens, gloves, and earmuffs. I tried baskets, a hamper by the door, a bag for each person in the closet, even a 5 drawer caddy and still, all winter long we would be searching for the mate to [...]

Are you juggling more than you can handle?

November 17, 2011

  Okay, Mom. How do you do it?   How do you get your work done in what seems like a daily three-ring circus? I've had part-time jobs in the home and outside the home. I've run a successful soy candle business, from my basement. I now have a business where I work from home [...]
