What Was I Talking About? Oh, Right. Work at Home Distractions
I’m on a writing deadline. I need to have a series of three 500-word articles by Friday. It’s Wednesday and have I written a single word yet? If you guessed no….ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, for the win!! I have distraction problems. And this time I can’t blame the kiddos, because they’re at school right [...]

The funny thing is, that it wasn’t until recently when I was having a [...]

Three Things Thursday: Be an Original
I stopped watching television right around the time that the popularity of so-called Reality TV exploded.
