Why Don’t You Love Me Anymore?
We’ve all been in one of those volatile relationships at some point in our lives. Whether it was with a boyfriend, girlfriend, husband or wife… you fell completely head over heels for them almost instantaneously. Let’s say it was a boyfriend. He was cute. He was fun. He dressed well. He said and did all [...]

Time to Act!
Anyone who knows me can tell you that I absolutely love to shop. I’m a female. It kind of comes with the territory. I nearly foam at the mouth at the very thought of shopping for anything… shoes, jewelry, electronics, lottery tickets, fresh produce—you name it. Feel bad for my future husband? Me too. The [...]

Living in Shades of Gray
I’m one of those people who pack two weeks ahead of time. The list is made two weeks before that with a different list compiled in the bedroom, downstairs and work since that is when the “don’t dare forget that” comes to mind. A final list is compiled from the three miscellaneous lists before the [...]

No Place To Hide
I think some of us could use a reminder that we are all really OUT THERE in terms of our [tag]virtual footprint[/tag]. Each week, I post blogs on this site. I send emails to candidates and represent this company in many ways. Anyone who wanted to poke around a bit could find out any number [...]

Talk to Me
Kids go through phases. Thanks God they are “phases” since that word implies there will be an end eventually. We are currently in Round Two of my six year old son in Melt Down Phase. He’s a little guy but he has some big feelings and when he feels they are stepped on, we hear [...]

Watch The ‘Tude, Dude
Last week, two boxes arrived for my children from Amazon. A dear friend of mine emailed me and told me she had sent them each a book. And she was wise enough to know that opening the box is part of the delight. So she sent two separate boxes. I brought them in from the front [...]

Get Your Story Straight
After a month of working on a particular search, I was told this week that the position I slaved over for Agency X has not been “approved†by the client.
Ok, wait, let me get this straight…
You asked me to find people.

Dig a Little Deeper
Rare diamonds do not sit on the top of the terra firma. If you want more than phenomenal caliber, then one must delve past the surface area. Have you noticed anything valuable requires a larger manifestation of energy? When you do accomplish it, whether it is the ideal weight or the perfect emerald, [...]

Use Your Illusion, but Get on with it for Cryin Out Loud!
“Chinese Democracyâ€, the highly anticipated “new†album from Guns ‘n Roses (OK, let’s face it, Axl Rose) has STILL NOT BEEN RELEASED! At this point I don’t even care if the damn thing ever comes out… although, my curiosity is still elevated enough to where I will buy it (or illegally download it) when [...]

Strike While the Iron is Hot!
Let’s say you are out somewhere Tuesday night and meet someone interesting. You strike up a great conversation. The chemistry seems to be there and thoughts of future steamy scenes are running through your head. You say, “I’d love to get together with you†– they say “Sounds great, here’s my card, [...]
