"He is a huge fan of the New England Patriots and he has invited me to go to their next football game."

"Wow! That sounds like fun!"

"He said he has season Patriots tickets for two and wants me to be his guest all season."

"That is going to be alot of traveling. Just try to stay on your diet."

"Oh I know- tailgate fare can be a killer!"
One of the first clues about a party arrive in the form of the invitations.

A big fan of creative invitations from way back, I think savvy hosts and hostesses that take the time to create one-of-a-kind invites are smart.

Afterall an invitation is the first introduction to a party. They set the tone. They suggest the degree of formality and fun. If done well, they will excite us by the possibilities that await us.

My Take On So Called Business Opps

Mention the words, business opportunity to me and I'll probably take off in the opposite direction faster than you can say, "millionaire".

Call me jaded if you want, but I just don't believe that most of these so called " business opportunities" are all that they are cracked up to be. I'm sure there might be some good opportunities out there, but I'm not aware of them.

Probably the best thing you'll get out of investing in a business opportunity is the education you'll pick up along the way. If you already are not able to see things for what they are... a good six months plugging away to make a cheerleading upline wealthy, will do the trick.
Do you have the need for audio racks?

Well if you are like the rest of us, there comes that defining moment when you realize that it is time to jump on the bandwagon and join the club.

But the big question that remains is where do I go to find the right sort of racks to best meet my needs. That is why I'm glad I discovered Stands and Mounts! Check 'em out. You'll be glad you did.

Cocooning or Traveling?

I vacillate between wanting to cocoon at home and wanting to taste the world. Traveling has always been a big passion of mine, but in recent years I've spent a big chunk of time cocooning right here in Tallahassee.

Now as my life evolves and new business opportunities open up, I am ready to extend my borders once again. That is why I like checking out sites like Condo Hotels
Dieting sure can be darn-right difficult! I've been struggling away at this for almost a year now and I've back-slidden more times than I'd like to admit.

I'm somewhere close to the 90 pound mark. I'd be long past it if I could just stay 100% focused on the goal. But the truth is real life gets in the way.

Stress enters the picture and noshing sure starts feeling ever so comforting.

Lori ought to set up a radar detector in my kitchen!

Prioritizing

This week I'll be getting ready to set up a small booth at an antique mall.

My plate is so full, it is hard to keep everything straight in my mind. Prioritizing helps.

If I can simply identify the most important tasks to complete first.

1. Complete this weeks blog assignments.

2. Price and box items going to the antique mall.

3. Start packing for the big move.

4. Follow up on all the loose ends.

5. Follow along on my calendar to make sure I don't overlook an appointment with everything going on.

6. Price out the wall sconces.

Don't Drink The Water!

"Don't drink the water!" He whispered as they eyed the passing pregnant woman. "That makes about the twentieth one we have seen today."

"Must have been a cold winter."

"Are you sure you wouldn't like to get pregnant?"

"At my age? Are you crazy? I do not want to have a baby."

"I don't know! I sort of get the feeling that you do."

"In your dreams, dear! Now lets just pick up the baby clothes for the shower and skadoodle out of this maternity palooza!"

An Impressive Trophy Collection

"Wow! You sure have the trophies !I've never seen such an impressive collection."

"Well, they all pale in comparison to the race marked out for me by the Lord."

"Sounds like you are committed to being at the top of your game in all areas of your life."

"I like being a high-achiever. But not for my glory- but for HIS!"
