Play time!
“Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.” — Dolly Parton
The past few weeks there was a major theme in my personal life–FUN! I’m so blessed to be married to such a fun-loving husband, Dennis. While we both have our careers, we always carve out some time for date nights; usually on a week night when there are less people around. And taking long weekends in the middle of the week. Why wait for Friday? That’s the rock star way, right? Live your life to the fullest, always. Don’t wait for weekends, holidays, and vacations, I’ve always said!
Business has been equally fun this past month. The greatest news is that my book “I Don’t Want to Be Like You” is now available on audio! Sara Stanton who reads it, has also done audio for other great books, my favorite being The Mediterranean Diet!
I’ve been doing Facebook blogs for two amazing companies, and just started helping a new client write her book.
