This past week I was interviewed by Lady T on Blog Talk Radio. Teisha Shelby-Houston (aka Lady T), helps stay at home moms grow flourishing, home-base businesses. As a mother of 5 and an entrepreneur for 15 years, she is considered THE Business Coach for Moms (TM). It was quite a privilege that she wanted [...]
Every so often, a television or newspaper ad catches my attention. Usually because it’s crazy even to me. Here are two for my “you’ve got to be kidding” collection: 1. Our local department store is now selling ladies pajamas that have been infused with vitamin E. Now whether that means they won’t wrinkle as easily [...]
Here in small town Ontario, Canada, the snow forgot to stop falling. Not only was my car unable to move over the foot or more of snow in my driveway, the city plow came by last night. Like all city snowplows, they challenge themselves to see how many driveways they can totally block in. Driveways [...]
These days I am a busy old lady. I was asked a few weeks ago to be part of a three woman tech panel on a local Rogers TV station, as the blogging expert. It was a great experience, although I can confirm that a television camera does add extra weight. I really do not [...]
If all of the snow we’re getting today is supposed to be a joke, we are not laughing. It just keeps falling and falling. My husband is from northern Ontario and even he agrees this is a lot of snow. He tried to drive to the library and couldn’t get up the little hill. Even [...]
As I’ve mentioned before, I take care of my two year old grandson during the day. His very favourite toy (and TV show) is Thomas the Train. And today I got an email that Chapters is having a special sale on the Thomas the Train Roundhouse. Now all I need is another room for all [...]
I take care of my grandson from Monday to Friday and even though I’m ready for a nap when he goes home, I get to do all kinds of fun things. Like play games, do crafts, and sing “The Wheels On the Bus” over and over again. But being the responsible old lady that I am, [...]
Today my grandson and I changed the hamster cage. Teddy the hamster was fast asleep, as is his daytime custom and did not enjoy being disturbed. He began to make a number of loud screeching noises to voice his displeasure, followed by what sounded like soft sobs when we continued to annoy him. Now is [...]
After many days of looking after my extremely active grandson, I was beginning to feel the need of some grown-up conversation. The Wheels On The Bus can only be sung so many times before senility sets in. Attending a weekend Internet Marketing workshop was just what my little deprived brain needed. After a few short hours, [...]
These days, I have had very little energy or motivation. It’s also been cold, wet, and gloomy outside, but somehow I didn’t make the connection. (Sometimes the obvious is the last thing we think of). Today was warm and sunny, perfect walking weather. Cambridge has a number of parks and hiking trails, so my husband and I walked along [...]
