I have read the third article in the last couple weeks about how multi-tasking is not a good thing.....da....but what gripes me is that you have all of these "professional consultant types" that are saying "take one thing at a time and finish it" or they are making posts on articles basically patting themselves on the back with their time management ideas......... This is my comment to the latest

After a busy and somewhat blurred 2006, my husband and I (who run a business together) took two days of solitude. Much needed I might add. We were both frazzled, frantic, used and abused, between business, family and farm......health suffering due to stress no doubt and debt we made a New years resolution to FIND solitude. The 1st and 2nd day of 2007 we would go no where, not even dress for the

I wanted to share a wonderful blessing from God! In June I had to roof my entire house and pay for it without assistance from my insurance company. We had undergone a very rainy, windy season as well as several hailstorms. There was damage to the top peak of my house that was not noticiable from the ground. The vast amounts of rain had run down the peaks and valleys to ultimately cause major

When I read the below prayer I so thought of the times I say "Life runs me" I do have a full plate like a lot of people I know. My days are full of this ways and that ways and before I know it the end of the week is here and I have added more onto the list than I have crossed off. Granted I still manage to juggle a lot and often have thought about adding my unexpected task to the list just so I

I really like what this article has to say. Sometimes people criticize me for "following" my heart and instincts. I tend to listen to that driving urge inside of me. Even when it goes against the grain per say.Do you have friends and family that look at you funny when you talk about your destiny?Have them read the seeds of our souls.

At a skating party last night I was asked a lot of questions from someone who is known to be the "nibby" and "gossipy" type. Anyway, nothing to be ashamed about so I entertained the conversation and when I spoke of again how God is so good and we are so blessed, others around (Christian folk) were rolling their eyes. I was asked why is everything a blessing to you, why do you always have to say "

This morning I was so disgusted. Somewhere in Indianapolis IN, someone has opened a hair salon that has the "Hooter style". Now guys can go get their hair cut and receive a neck and shoulder massage by girls wearing very little. Just goes to show you what women subject themselves to in order to make a little $$$$. I understand people have to make a living and society guarantees us that "sex"

How many of you were caught in conversations that started with "If I win the lottery, I would...."? Well I know I was dreaming of traveling and seeing all of the places on my list and then some. The first thing I said was "It would be nice to see all of those near and dear to me become debt free and to be able to enjoy all that life offers." After saying that I realized that alot of people are

“We never stop working for you” is the motto that drapes across the outside of their envelopes, every piece of advertising and ironically enough - even the bill Verizon graciously sends me every month. And In the case of my service they are forced to stand behind their motto. Of course I believe the true intention was to give the illusion of good customer service etiquette without having to do

After reading many books and many articles regarding "how to" optimize your energy and/or "how to" make the best of your time, I have discovered that the amount of time to protect myself, prepare myself, change myself, and fulfill myself will require more time than I have in any given day here on earth. (sarcastic mode on). It seems that anything and everything can and will rob one's energy.

I am naturally a people watcher. For some strange reason and for as long as I can remember, whether I am in line or seated at a restaurant, I am like a sponge. Fully aware of numerous things, conversations, etc around me. I have to really stop and focus to not be pulled in all of the different places. This time of year everyone's agenda's are exceptionally full. I do most of my gift buying

I have seen the previews and I am excited to see this movie. This morning on WGNR (christian radio station) I heard them talking about it and giving away passes to the movie and I wasn't sure of the connection. I found this article and now I understand. Now I am even more excited just so I can form my own opionion.

I just found this and thought I would pass it on. Interesting that we were just discussing this....no coincidences with God...I am Concerned about Doubt Doubt is normal. The claims of faith are enormous and, by any reasonable standard, should kindle in us confusion, questions, uncertainties and doubts. Not that God wants to leave us there. But we have to start the faith journey by being shaken

Here are a few of my favorite pics from the Valley of Fire. We had so much fun exploring and climbing the rocks. We found a lot of little caverns. I felt so peaceful and like a little girl on an adventure. I revelled in the fact that the sand was red. It felt so good to walk in it barefooted.

I believe that there are ordinary people walking in and out of our lives as God so ordains that can be considered "saints". Especially if you are the type that often requests for God to keep you safe, give you strength, show you the right answers to difficult situations, etc. These people may be strangers or they may be relatives and friends. It seems that some people today reserve the word "

The House resolved by a vote of 383-31 to express the sense of Congress that the US Supreme Court should speedily find the use of the Pledge of Allegiance in schools to be constitutional.

Why can't our government learn from the abuse the welfare cards get?

This Monday morning my 17 year old daughter came running inside to tell me she thought Smoky was in the road. Smoky, a 2 year old male cat that her boyfriend had given to her. We have been very fortunate over the past 10 years to have not lost any animals on the road. Until this morning. Traffic was really bad because of school starting. Here I am standing along side the road, with a big white

Friday was a lovely day of toilet overflow at the shop. Of course none of the guys who work for me know anything about plunging a toilet let alone unclogging and/or replacing a toilet. Well I borrowed a "snake" from my mom and dad and attempted to unclog the toilet. Nope wasn't happening. Funny, a clogged toilet is kind of like life sometimes....you can only do so much plunging and it still

OK, Winter is almost over and like almost everyone I talk to, this winter has provided some extra pounds that we are all complaining about. I am tired of complaining. I have been trying to get myself on a treadmill every other day. Was doing great until I got sick, got out of the habit and now guess what? I am dusting the treadmill....For gracious sakes I am the only one that can do anything

Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections but instantly set about remedying them-- every day begin the task anew.I ran across this quote today and it has really inspired me. There are so many things pulling me in so many directions that I feel as if I am waving at myself coming and going. I am so sure there

After a great deal of prodding from a family member, I have finally decided to take the plunge and become more involved and active with some of the various aspects the web has to offer.I am in the midst of developing a couple of sites, one to focus on the various aspects of life according to ME and the other focusing on my primary source of income that happens to be managing a business that is

All of my life I wanted Horses. I was an only child and we lived in the country but my parents knew nothing of farm animals. My first real riding experience was on a runaway pony that my neighbor owned. He was great heading out away in the field, but turn back towards home...............hang on. I laughed and flopped the entire way back. My mother freaked, but I felt like I was exactly where
