Wake Up Happy!
July 14, 2011Family Is First
July 13, 2011What can you do in four hours. Time passes quickly.
Woke up at 5 and lounged there in bed. While lounging I reflected on my Wednesday as the birds chirped, made a mental gratitude list and and gave thanks for another day. Each morning I grab my Blackberry to check the time and I unconsciously start reading the emails and text messages that popped up while i slept.
The sun never sets on our world. While I am sleeping someone else is typing on a keyboard somewhere in the world with the goal their message reaching me and it does. How did we get so plugged in to a wireless world. One thing I noticed in the long list of message was that none of them were from my family. So I asked myself, what is wrong with this picture?
Rolled out of bed at 6 to start my day. My answer came in the following way. Slow down. Unplug. Connect with your kids. The world can go on without you, but your family cannot. So I sent this message to my family by text message on that same Blackberry:
“This is my home number save it in your phone 123-456-7890. I will be turning off my phone to set new office hours with my business so call me on the home phone if I do not answer the mobile number.”
The answers came beeping back in and I got this one from my first born. “ok. Someone stole my computer from my home. I will call u shortly gonna take a quik nap”
I believe more in my mom intuition more than ever now. Allow yourself time each day to reflect and listen to yourself. You have the answers. My family is first to me.

July 11, 2011I just found out that I can now audio post to this blog. Check out my test audio post below:

Sunday Blogging
July 10, 2011So this is day ten of the Ultimate Blog Challenge! I am falling behind. I think I need some time management lessons. It’s summer! The days are longer and there is so much to do outside that I am spending so much time outside away from my computer. And guess what I am loving the outdoors.
Back to the challenge. Blogging is sharing so today I’m not talking about business but life. This is why I am in business to enjoy by life. Working from home affords me the pleasure of working anytime and anywhere I choose. Today I choose to bike ride. I’ll be back tomorrow.

October 19, 2010My journey is nearing a full year now. Yes it’s been a year since I retired from the Post office, and yesterday there was a Post Office shooting. Two postal employees were killed in Tennessee during a attempted robbery. May God bless their souls. I am more passionate than ever to help someone leave a job they hate.
