Scrapbooking is as much therapuetic as it is an artform. After the stress of the holidays I want to help more people enjoy the art of scrapbooking and take time for themselves.

The Scrap Facts Guide was written to be easy to follow. You will begin scrapbooking quickly. For the more advanced scrapbooker this can help you get out of a rut. Many times we just have to get back to the basics to find our creativity again!

I’ve never been nominated for a blog award before. Just the being nominated was a huge honor. But to actually be a winner and have Working WAHM be in the top 10 WAHM blogs at Sparkplugging WAHM 2.0! HOLY COW, I’m beyond excited. Such an incredible feeling to know that people read my blogs and like them enough to vote for me.

So this is my call to action. It’s time to get my blogs rocking and more organized in 2009. It’s time to take them past the next level. This award was exactly the kick in the ass I needed to get back to my blogs and make them work for me.

K, it’s Tuesday and I’m here to post another positive post. Can I make a full week of all positive posts? lol Like I mentioned this is my venting place and I guess you’ll just to know the offline side of me now. Cause offline I work almost all in the positive.

So positives for today? Wow, so many. Had a great coaching session online, got a lot crossed off a clients to-do list. I downloaded a new program that a client and I are going to work on. I opened up an old site that I’ve put to the side because of lack of time to build it and remembered how excited I am to get to work on it and found the program easier to work with than I remembered. I contacted a possible new client about a little bit of work needed.

It’s the final day to get your vote in.  My friend Suzanne Franco has been battling to win Blogging Idol.  She really wants the title and has gone some unique routes to get it.  I personally loved the call out to the guru’s to try to get them to respond.  It’s been fun to watch and participate in to help.

Well it’s down to the final day.  So go and VOTE for Suzanne Franco. She’s #7 so it’s easy to remember.  Then make sure you scroll down and hit the submit button under entry 99 so it counts.  I can’t wait to hear the results tomorrow!

I am so happy to be part of a brand new company that is all about customer serivice and mineral makeup. I’ve been a rep for 2 other companies previously and just didn’t end up happy with product and especially customer service. I am all about customer service so if you can’t back me up then I get a little tired of it all. lol

Kelly is at it again. I swear she just goes through my sites and then creates products that I must have. This time she has nailed it though. It is all about hitting your local market with blog design. Like me Kelly loves WordPress! So this coaching will all be designed around using WP.

Now my partner and I already have Easy WAHM Websites with site design, but I would love to step into the local market.

It does honestly bother me to go to local sites and see how bad they look or even worse, major stores or service shops don’t have a site at all.

My friend Christina is undergoing major changes on her coaching site. Starting July 1st the VIP membership will be increased to $17 a month. Major upgrades will go into effect at this time and VIP members can enjoy the following benefits along with many others.

Monthly tele-class schedule (included)
Quarterly e-course to help you become even more irresistible (included)
Instant online coaching (I can’t say more than that because it’s top secret – it is included in monthly investment and it’s super cool!)

Well a lot of stuff has gone down this week. One of which is the fact that the only other trainer for both our gyms gave notice. Supposedly he will be there through July, but year right. That NEVER happens. So I will be working both gyms and trying to manage that.

Then online has been awesomely busy! Our Mom Chat Rooms have been super busy. I had to take over doing the scheduling this week and faked the newsletter because my partner Lauren had lightening hit by or on her house and her computer was down. THANK YOU GOD that the modem was the only thing broke and it only took a week to figure this out. I am so thankful!

What is up with the no sleep? I’m noticing a pattern here. The longer he has worked with the department the less I sleep when he is gone. I’m not conscientiously worried about him at work. But I’m just not sleeping well if he’s not home. Here it is 1:18am and I’m still up and ready to stay up for hours.

I’ve decided to be the better person and not get into an argument on a friends message boards.  There is a certain person online that constantly has to put down other people.  I do believe that may be the definition of a bully?  Putting down other people to make yourself feel better.  Any time you contradict what she is saying she is all defensive and sooner rather than later the who “I’m a single mother that has made a ton of money with my businesses while raising my children, blah, blah, blah, SHUT THE FUCK UP!”
