Everything I need to know, I learned from Noah’s Ark…
With our kids’ busy schedules, video chatting is a great way for them to keep in touch with camp friends, get help for homework, do group projects and just have fun with friends. But as my girlfriend put it, “When my 11 year old son video chats with his friends (which he is only allowed to do at our family computer in the KITCHEN and doesn’t have this feature on his Ipod touch thankfully), we need to set up a whole new set of rules that keep up with our ever evolving technological world.”
Someone forwarded this to me today. I have to say, it took my breath a way. I am keeping Elisa & Nathan in my prayers. Perhaps you could too.
Months have gone by since I last posted about the past. I told the tale of what happened the day I had the strokes that changed my life.
Our lives.
I went from being a whirlwind of activity with goals of family-happiness, blog-success, and building a new life in Georgia, to having the goals of family-happiness, blog-success, and building a new life in Georgia BUT IN A WHEELCHAIR.
RIP, Elizabeth Taylor. A true icon. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A life in pictures… Elizabeth Taylor, 79, gone but not forgotten. xoxEDxox
Enjoy this interview I did with the lovely, Stephanie Goetsch, founder and Editor-In-Chief of HerExchange E-Magazine.
So, you know that expression, “I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead?” Yah well, it’s this expression that has pretty much sent me into overdrive. I look at my peers around me, and many of them live by this attitude. The husbands are A athletes, cyclists, skiers. The wives are tennis players, exercisers etc… (and so are their kids, by the way). They are from this mindset– I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead. They Go Go Go. Hard. They are in words of Charlie Sheen, Winning.
And then there’s me… I guess somewhere in the middle– an A player or flat out D player, on any given day.
I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Guy Kawasaki, world-famous entrepreneur and author, who I have followed for some time, and admire. Why Guy Kawasaki on Women On The Fence you may ask? Because he has been a huge supporter of businesswomen and mompreneurs for years, and he has insight for us all.
In his new book, Guy discusses a concept that we can adopt in our everyday lives to be more successful… at home, at work, with our partners. That concept is… enchantment. Because the goal of this blog is to always push you off the fence and self improve, here is a concept which you may enjoy.
Are you married? Are you divorced? Chances are, if you are no longer married, you didn’t go into that union expecting to end up divorced. Unfortunately, marriage statistics today are not that sunny– we’ve all heard, practically one in two marriages end in divorce. So, if you want to withstand the divorce epidemic, you must self-vaccinate by learning the right upgraded conflict skills. The skills that I am going to give you may make the difference in determining if your marriage will last.
Pssst…. It’s me– Miss Slacker!
Took the morning, ‘tout pour moi, chez le spa’ for a welcomed change.
I’m now sitting alone, downtown, having lunch, at a cool place hubby suggested, Ipad, goat cheese & wild mushroom grilled panini with a yummy tomato purée soup.
In heaven.
“Me-time” is definitely underrated.
Gotta run!
