I’ll never forget kissing my husband and son goodbye as they embarked on the last day of their first deer hunting season. When they were walking out the door, I said to my son, “I really hope you and Daddy get a deer today, fella.” He just shrugged his 4 1/2 year old shoulders and said

Fast, Easy, Guaranteed Success!
I’m starting to read magazines like this one – to the left – which, of course you know I found in the MEN’s Interest section of Barnes & Noble. (Not good, B&N!) Anywho, I’m not reading them because I’m starting a new biz, looking for a franchise, or considering launching a mail order empire! =)

MEN’s Interest?! SERIOUSLY????
Yesterday I was in Barnes and Noble, looking for very specific business magazines that I don’t already subscribe to. (My subscription list includes Entrepreneur, Inc., and Fast Company… in case you were interested.) Anyway, I couldn’t find them in the Current NEWS section as I have done previously. So, my Mom jokes, “maybe they’re in

Which Excuse Will Do?
I’ll never forget the day I took my kids “into town” to pick up some roller blades for them. There was a store going out of business, having great sales and my kids were about 2, 4, and 6 at the time. (Found this picture, which shows Shelbey and CJ at ABOUT that age… missing

Honor ME, Please! Promote ME Please!
Maybe I’m the ONLY one who gets irritated by this, and if so… I’m okay with that. (It’s my blog. No one has to agree with me! lol) But, nothing gets me more agitated with speakers (whether they are in front of me on stage….or on the phone in a virtual setting) than when they

What are YOU Preparing For?
Unless you’ve been living in a lead cave, you’ve heard a lot about the AHRnold… and his wife Maria. Above everything else, I love my husband and my marriage, so I really do hate stories like this one. And, as much as I hate to hear of divorce, when a man has THIS little respect

TRUTH in Advertising?! Not with this example!
We’ve HEARD about truth in Advertising, even if we’ve learned not to expect it! This facebook ad is the ultimate insult to my B.S. Meter. You’ll see it was targeted JUST FOR ME. (So far, so good!) It caught my eye because I’m a HOKIE and I have kids that I send to summer camp…

The BEAUTY and DANGER of FREE
FREE. A four letter word that – aside from pushing you into SPAM folders if you use it in your e-newsletter – seems pretty harmless. But, like many, many things- it can be as destructive as it can be beautiful… depending on how you use it. On facebook, twitter, and on-line in general… we see

Darwin’s Theory… of Business Selection
At Virginia Tech, I learned about Darwin’s Theory of Evolution… and fought hard to reconcile science with my faith – but that’s another blog post entirely! =) Anyway, I learned of Darwin’s Theory and as I continue to dive deeper and deeper into this world of entrepreneurial adventure, there are two points that continue to
