Just for Fun

Red_roseJust when I thought 2012 was off to a banging start…life in it’s own…never subtle way, stepped in with it’s own ideas.

Which is the very reason I am trying my very best every day…every minute…every moment to stay in the present and not project out into the future. For the present is all we have anyway. It is the only real existence…for the past is nothing but fodder for the mind to dwell on…most times making us depressed and the future that has not yet arrived…will be the present when it does…and until it does it has no existence either.

We think we plan things out…we carefully project and make plans and then boom…life has different ideas. You know the old saying “the best laid plans…etc. etc….” Continue reading

Finally, my first post in 2012!

The holidays are over, the New Year has begun and it’s time to buckle down to blogging and blogging and more blogging. Then of course there is commenting, and commenting and more blog commenting before it’s all done ;)…and, don’t forget the social bookmarking 😉

I am truly excited writing this post because over Christmas, in fact, between Christmas and New Years I got to meet up with one of my favorite online marketers (this guy is a PLR genius)...who has also become a dear friend.

Recently I was nominated by Barry Wells to join the 7 Links Blogging Challenge. Although time seems to be at a premium lately (geez when do you ever have enough time!) I am not one to pass up a great challenge and this one offered a chance to stroll through memory lane as I searched for the best prospects for each category listed.

The 7 Links Challenge seems to be circulating the net right now. Barry was originally nominated by Adrienne Smith who was nominated by…etc, etc. …you get the drift. It’s a nice circle of blogging enthusiasts to be surrounded by and I wasn’t going to pass up this opportunity.

Now that I have located my 7 entries into this Link Challenge, I’d like to add how much fun it was to revisit some of my earlier posts. It was interesting to note my voice and the date a post was written to get a feel for where I was at in my own  journey online.

I do hope you find something that offers you value in the way of education, inspiration, motivation or humor!. Continue reading

It’s Thanksgiving Day here in the US as we celebrate a day of gratefulness.

I love Thanksgiving because there are always lots of family members as well as friends in for fun, food and laughter and you don’t have to deal with all the presents but you get the same atmosphere.

It just so happens that today Thanksgiving coordinates with the last day of Learn With Sally Coaching…the latest coaching class that I participated in.

Thanksgiving is a holiday that is not celebrated around the world and because of that, I am saddened 🙁 because most likely I will not be able to attend the last class webinar…which I just know is going to be awesome! Continue reading

As most of you know I am on vacation right now…off in Colorado for family visits and mountain retreats 😉

Although I am not due to return until the 31st of the month, I thought it would be fun to share some pictures from my camping trip to the Gore Mountain Range located within the Colorado Rockies. I am a hiker at heart.

At first I thought it might be fun to create a “flip book” from my assortment of pics (flip books read just like regular books and would make great online picture albums)…but then it suddenly dawned on me that this was a great opportunity to practice my Camtasia and Power Point skills by creating a video presentation with my camping pictures.

This would accomplish a few things… Continue reading
