One of the bigger events in town this summer was a visit from Animal Planet. I have to admit taking two teenagers and one already past the double digits made me feel, well, like a young(er) mom again. The enthusiasm the kids showed for the event was mirrored by my muted excitement. We all love…

In visiting Perry Marshall’s The Definitive Guide to Ad Words site, I got a pop up…

Heading down the highway . . . We didn’t have to look far for adventure yesterday. It just kept coming our way. We woke up, rolled out the door and cruised down Route One to Hoopeston, Illinois, the self-designated Sweet Corn Capitol of the World (and probably the planet, unless somebody else’s already claimed it). …

During the year, the hard work of all the laborers around our family dinner table was lost on me. Except for Labor Day weekend when we celebrated the working life.

On August 1, I dropped my Gateway tablet off at CompUSA for a virus scan. Annoying messages kept coming up – over and over and over and over again. It wasn’t a virus. It wasn’t spyware. CompUSA didn’t know what “it” was. They assured me diagnostic testing would provide answers. The Gateway’s been to Texas…

Studying Internet marketing is addictive, distracting and time-consuming. Maybe that’s why I love it so much. What did I download today? The better question is "WHY did I download what I did today?"

This may be the only weekend of the year when my husband asks me to stop yelling at the TV. Of course, it’s okay for him to noisily cheer on soccer players, the Minnesota Vikings, Formula One racers, etc. with hoots that are more appropriate for an open air stadium than our family room. But…
