I made progress today. After rambling on about what I should be doing, I started revising this month’s A Swan’s Song story. I had just gotten started when my husband asked me if I wanted to go for a walk with him.
Heck yes! So off we went.
After the walk I did a quick grocery store […]
Arrrgh… it’s a beautiful Sunday afternoon. I’ve been reading a good book out in the sunshine. But my mind keeps wandering back to things I should be doing for my business. Don’t you just hate that word?
I try to keep it out of my vocabulary, but every once in a while it creeps back in. […]
Today I pulled a card from my deck of “One Hat at a Time” cards. It was one of those multi-colored children’s beanie caps with a propeller on top. Cute.

On the drive home from work this morning I listened to an interview with a teacher from Southern Maine Community College. The topic was Fire Prevention Week.
I learned two new things during the twelve minute drive:

Have you ever bitten off more than you could chew? I know I have. Sometimes I feel like I’m just going to choke on all that I’ve taken on.
Next week is a perfect example.
On Tuesday morning I’m doing a workshop in the morning for the Unemployed Professionals Group in Portland, Maine.
