Ok…Problematic Situation… As I come in the door from the gym, I turn to lock the two deadbolts, and glance at my favorite “goal picture.”  My goal picture is an advertisement of this gorgeous athlete model for Syntha-6 Protein Powder.  She has the most amazing rear, and of course, I want my rumple butt to look like that.  I thought that if I put it on my front door that […]

Handing in your resignation letter is uncomfortable. Let’s face it-You’ve planned it now for weeks, thought about what you were going to say, how you were going to say it, and even thought about a few “Office Space” walk out scenarios. The big day finally arrives, and you.just.do it. Resigning from a position should feel, taste, and breathe bittersweet. It means you actually cared about what you did. You may […]

So I was flipping through the channels the other day, and stopped on the widely known America’s Next Top Model. I don’t watch it regularly so I have no idea what cycle it was, but it was interesting and quite insightful.

If you missed yesterday’s post you’ll want to go and read that. You don’t want to miss out on a VERY important facet of your life. […]

As much as I love to grow beautiful flowers, sometimes it just does not work.  I’m not sure if it’s the soil I use, too much water, not enough nurturing (I’ve heard that if you talk to your plants, they’ll grow…hmm..), or maybe I just don’t have the Martha Stewart touch. Regardless, I do what I can, and as I am pulling out the dead leaves from underneath my plant, […]

Sometimes we all are looking for someone to give us a pat on the back, a job well-done, or (gasp!) a raise of appreciation-monetary, of course. Perhaps we are just looking for someone to be as excited as we are about the new idea we have!
