 I’m not a fan of asking for help. Yes, I know you probably knew that about me because I’m all strong and take-charge and do-it-all-myself and then help some other people along the way. It’s my thing…my bag…part of my identity. I’ve been helping people since as far back as I can remember and . . . → Read More: When Did You Last Ask for Help? (Kick in the Blog)  I know you know I know you know finances are near and dear to my heart. Controlling your money and investments allows you to sleep better at night. If you listen to any of the nanny shows on television or even just your child’s teacher they will tell you that outside of boundaries a . . . → Read More: The Great Piggy Bank Adventure®! (Teaching Your Kids About Finances)  The short answer to this question is, “Anything.” (alternate answer would be, “Everything!”) But really…nothing is the more accurate answer. Is this supposed to be positive? Nothing could be positive – goodness knows I have enough going on right now that one more thing would be craziness. Especially if you include the “irons in . . . → Read More: What Could You Start Today? (Kick in the Blog)  This post was sponsored by Tampico. Now available in a convenient 20oz bottle!

Normally you hear people asking, “What’s your passion?” … it makes me groan. Not even on the inside, I swear I out-loud groan (sometimes I’m socially challenged) when people ask that. You see, I don’t have a passion. I don’t have something that gets me out of bed in . . . → Read More: What Do You Love to Do? (Kick in the Blog) The very first prompt from Kick in the Blog is… Who Believes In You? (and by ‘you’ they mean me unless you’re blogging it and then they totally mean ‘you you’) While there are some “gimme” answers to this one (husband, kids, friends, etc.) I have very recently come to a crossroads in my . . . → Read More: Who Believes In You? (Kick in the Blog) I received an email from Jessica Rosenberg (the blogger behind It’s My Life) and it started out in a way that usually makes me hit the ‘delete’ button faster than you can move a mouse and click. I’m not usually an email spammer… I’ve received emails from Jessica before, however, so kept going. I . . . → Read More: Kick in the Blog – Just What the (not a) Doctor Ordered Everyone sees bloggers and writers as being enemies. Except most bloggers and writers. To me, the biggest difference is editing. Writers either have an editor or edit their own work multiple times before submitting it for publication. Some bloggers – okay, a metric ton of bloggers – think having a blog means never having . . . → Read More: The Difference Between Bloggers and Writers As I sit on the train I try to picture what it will be like to do this every day. The train used to give me panic attacks.
