Sooooo. I’m not really back from vacation yet. I’m no longer in Maine, but I’m writing this post from my mother-in-law’s kitchen table. I’m off to Europe on Thursday with a passel of Girl Scouts (pray for me) and Abby’s spending the next 2 weeks at Camp Grandma.
But before I can leave on my next [...]

I’m tempted not to post this because then everyone will know about it. At the end of the month (220 hours from the time of this writing, but who’s counting?), we’re going on a big Griswold-style family vacation to my favorite vacation spot in the whole world. How good can it be? It so good [...]

#mce_temp_url#I did a lot of baking last week. Friday was Jonathan’s birthday – he’s 30 and therefore OLD!! (Wait, I’m his OLDER sister. Aw, crap.) Emily asked me to make him a guitar cake in her guitar cake pan. It came out rather awesome, if I do say so myself.
And I don’t know what I [...]

Yep, you read that right! mom and I spent our full free day in Prague riding Segways and seeing the sights. Mom was a little nervous at first (actually, so was I, never having ridden a Segway before), but the tour included training. So we showed up at the place, strapped on our helmets and [...]

Every spring I run into the same little “problem.” With a strong desire to just DO something already after a long, cold winter, and an overabundance of potential projects falling into my lap, I start saying, “Yes!” To lots and lots of stuff. I once made the mistake of telling a life coach that I [...]

As if there was ANY doubt left in ANYONE’S mind that Abby is my clone (albeit with a better tan), she has begun venturing further into my world this week with the introduction of… BROADWAY MUSICALS! After I started humming “Shapoopie” from The Music Man, Abby asked what I was humming. (Shapoopie is her new [...]

There is no milk in my house.
I haven’t been home lately. Even when I have been physically in the house, I have been working, working, working. Otherwise, I’ve been flying in circles, running around keeping clients happy, making the data behave, making it all look easy and effortless, even without luggage.
And then I get home [...]

As you read this, I am in Cincinnati, working my buns off on a Building Blocks(sm) study. I love what I do, which is great, and I travel a lot when we’re busy. Abby was mad at me today (yesterday) when I dropped her off at school. She wouldn’t even let me carry my suitcase [...]

In which I show my marketing fangirl side.
I have never hidden my love for Tom Fishburne‘s ideas. He writes a fantastic, hilarious cartoon about marketing, business and innovation. In other words, right in my wheelhouse.
New Directions Consulting has been licensing his cartoons for our newsletter for the past few months (we also feature several cartoons [...]

As if she read this blog and decided that the best way to get some QT with Mommy would be to stay home from school, Abby did just that. I got the fateful call yesterday morning in between tearing my hair out and sobbing violently on my keyboard. “Um, Missy, this is Abby’s teacher. Shes’ [...]
