Branding Clarity

November 5, 2009

It’s been a good week, despite the family (including me) having the flu.  Perhaps it was the “special”  cough medicine my doctor prescribed, but I had a moment of clarity.  I needed to tie the local website more closely to the national blog, and I needed to better define my target market.  It’s a branding [...]

Laws of Attraction

November 1, 2009

Coming off a sick week.  Both girls and I had the flu.  The flu is so bad around here that they actually closed the schools last week.  Being sick is bad enough, but having to take care of two sick kids at the same time really stinks.  But…thanks to some heavy duty coughing medicine from [...]

Off My Clocker

October 14, 2009

I’m looking forward to changing the clocks for Daylight Savings in a couple weeks.  My internal clock feels out of sync, which is why I suspect I had a perpetually late day today.
First, we missed the bus. Then I was a couple minutes late to the Pre-K class for “Specials Persons” day.  I was 10 [...]

The Perpetual Pendulum

October 13, 2009

Don’t you hate it when bloggers start their post with “sorry I haven’t posted in awhile”?  Yea…me too.  Not sayin’ it!
Been very busy on the home front -yes, that familiar balancing act.  I’m taking a look at my staging business from another perspective and will be making some changes soon.  All good.  But first I [...]

Rough Start to a Better Day

September 30, 2009

Ever have one of those mornings where back luck dominos into a pretty darn bad start to an otherwise perfectly good day?
This morning my older daughter missed the bus, so she came with me to first drop off my younger daughter at Pre-K. On the way there, cheerios were spilled all over the floor of [...]

Eyes Wide Open

September 24, 2009

I had a breakthrough change in philosophy this morning.
I’ve been stressing (understatement) about how you can reach the big time with no time.  Ok, so maybe it came off as whining! lol.  But that doesn’t mean working part time can’t be effective either.  It just takes a bit longer.  And…not only do you become a [...]

Losing my mind

September 23, 2009

Good news – the “out of beta” event for HOMEdigz is moving along nicely.  We’re running our first blog party today, and everything seems to be working.  I also successfully changed the domain name and reloaded a theme for a client blog (it’s harder than it sounds, seriously!).
But have I lost my mind in the [...]

Good Enough is Good Enough

September 14, 2009

Sometimes good enough is good enough.
I’ve heard that quote many times, and nodded knowingly to myself that indeed it was truth.  Now, actually applying that to something you are emotionally connected to…well…that’s a different story.
So I’m stepping outside my instincts on this one.  First off all, I’m officially moving HOMEdigz.com out of beta into the [...]

The Calm Amidst Chaos

September 12, 2009

I’m slowly starting to catch up, and actually feel much more graceful in my multi-tasking style.  More relaxed, methodical and less unglued.  I really like what I do.  The fact I want to do more of it is proof!
The weather has turned crappy, making me want to run screaming to Old Navy for fleece jammies [...]

What to do with all this FREE time

September 4, 2009

I’m really not sure how I got through August.  No camps for the kiddo’s, a week out of town, then all the craziness around back-to-school.  I really did not have much time to work at all.  So here I am in September, the kids are on schedule, and I’m trying to figure out how quickly [...]

A Vacation from Myself

August 29, 2009

I took a week off for a family vacation to Cape Cod.  Nothing got done.  Seriously! 
It felt strange, but I think it was needed.  Piloting your own course can lead to burn out pretty quickly, and I realized as the week progressed that I have been nose-to-the-grindstone a bit too much.  It was getting difficult [...]
