Refocusing My Efforts

Something everyone struggles with from time to time is making more valuable family time and to me family has always come first, my children are my world! For a while I had become what I call plain lazy and I got used to being forced into working from home and having to make a living so that the bills were paid and I could save my home from foreclosure. Now that my home issues have been resolved and I still have my house I am working on refocusing my online money making efforts to be that of something that takes up less of my time. I read a couple of articles on Sunday about blogging for business and the main points I gathered from the articles were: Blogging is NOT …

Positive Thoughts Create Positive Energy

As I talk to friends and hear their pain and all of the not so great things they are going through I try my hardest to get them in an upbeat mood.

#followfriday Recommendations

If you are not familiar with what #followfriday is, it’s a day on Twitter, obviously Friday, when everyone recommends you follow someone. Now some people like to just toss out who ever they feel like but to me, I prefer to recommend those that have made an impact on my life. Even virtual friendships can be huge and I am thankful for many of the friends (and more) that I have listed in this post. I plan to do a #followfriday post every Friday as a way to better give thanks in more than 140 characters and hopefully allow you all to find great people to follow on Twitter. Of course if you are not following me, feel free to do so, I haven’t been tweeting as much as I …
