For the month of January, we are launching a nation wide NEM Regional contest! Here’s how it works: Find out which reg

Single-Mommy-Hood
I have a new found respect for single moms that have full time careers AND have their children 100% of the time! I had to work late today and felt horrible picking up Maddox from school over an hour later than usual. :( It's not like I can call my "hubby" to grab him because I'm stuck in a budget meeting with our VP trying to submit numbers by EOD. I literally had to stop the meeting and tell everyone I had to leave to get my #minime. When I left the office, it was pitch bla

Kick Your OWN Ass into gear! (8 weeks out from competition)

Girls Gone Auto ;p
This morning on the way to work I passed by a car that had a flat tire with three...yes, THREE DUDES huddling around it. Two were standing on the side while the tow truck guy was changing the tire. I thought to myself..."WTF??? Between those two dudes, they couldn't change the damn tire???" I remembered when I got my first car at 16 (yes, spoiled brat) and my Dad MADE ME learn how to change the tire. Because I wasn't strong enough to remove the lug nuts with the short bar,

Thanksgiving Eve Thoughts
This week has been an emotional roller coaster with the ride coming to an end tonight. I have been slacking on my blogs and really don't have an excuse. Day after day, my "tasks" list reminds me to write an update blog about my Mom's fight against lung cancer but I never seem to check that off my list...and it won't happen tonight.

Stairway to Awesomeness!
I remember seeing this cute cartoon come up on my Facebook feed about a Mama, her kids & hubby, COFFEE, and most importantly WINE! Of course I just had to “like” the comic cartoon then immediately click on her page only to find more AWESOME comic strips and instantly became a fan! Through FB, I’ve come to be “cyber-friends” with Comic Strip Mama - chatting online and even having her create an awesome logo for my website! On August 15, 2013, Comic Strip Mama released her firs
