I’m back……

Wow, its been month since my last post. A small update for my regular readers and blogging buds. I have been out due to the inhability to type / use my hands as much.

Due to the high amout of hours I was typing  on my laptop and PC, I suffered never damage on both my hands. This was the most incredible pain. Not able to pick up items, not able to hold or feel when they fell from my hands. Now, I am doing a lot better and only have minimal pain and still have numbness on a couple of my fingers.

What you should do to avoid this:
Limit the amount of houres spent on the keyboard
Take frequent breaks
Excersice
keep hydrated
and see your Doctor the moment something feels odd with your exptremities

I kept putting off the visit to the Doctor until one day, while driving, my hand went numb. So please take care of yourself.

Blogging was placed on hold, as my income really has come from selling online and not blogging. I have had help with two other blogs and money comes in steadly from them.

Have experienced growing pains with one blog and do I have a lot to share about those.

As for my e-Commerce stores, that was easier to mamange as I do have people helping me daily.  And I did not have to type or lift anything. Just had to overseee daily activity.

Just thought you might want to know ….. and to encourage you to take care of yourself, nerve damage is painfull……..

My invitation was lost in the mail

Trick or Treat for Business

Last year, Halloween was not much of a festive holiday around my community. This year things look brighter, many did lose their homes to the economy but in the bright side many have benefit by being able to purchase a home in a community they may have no otherwise been able to afford.

In my opinion Las Vegas / Henderson is a good place to find a deal if you can afford to have your property sit there for a while. Anyhow, this is my Trick or Treat business tip: Promote your business this Halloween with special treats for the kids or parents. Here is how….

If you are giving out candy, place a sticker with  your Store Name, blog, or website store. Kids love stickers, so aside from just giving out candy; sneak in some nice stickers. Of course not to obvious after all they would be your neighbors kids etc….

Or, donate to your church Harvest Festival, community Halloween event, school etc.. Banners and flyers are fine, but unless you spend some serious money for a eye catching banner its not going to do much.Food, such as baked goods are always a hit. Get to a consumers heart through the tummy.   :)

Thinking of volunteering this time of the year? That is also an opportunity to expose your business. Create some fun and not to obvious T-Shirts for your business. Wear them when out; you never know when the charity you volunteer for might get some Free TV Time.

What are your creative ways to get some traffic?

Meg Whitman for Governor – “A New California”

Its official, Meg Whitman for a “New California”. Maybe she will make a difference and business owners will flock back to Sunny Cali. It is going to be interesting to see California go from Celebrity Actor Governor to a Celebrity e- Business person. Meg Whitman has her fans and perhaps a huge chunk may just be out in California. I will be following her campaign and of course I will be attending a rally. She is a smart business woman and that alone if wroth following.

R.I.P Patrick Swayze

So young and brave. For anyone that had a loved one pass on from battling cancer then you know that they are in a better place. Patrick Swayze was huge when I was in Jr. High School. OMG! I can remember how my girlfriends and I would torture our boyfriends trying to get them to dance like Patrick Swayze. Of course let’s not forget Ghost.

Patrick Swayze seemed to have enjoyed his life, short but he lived it the way he wanted too. Here is a clip of the song from Dirty Dancing “I Had The Time of My Life”…. and thanks to what a great actor he was; I certainly had fun with this piece.

What are your favorite moments of Patrick Swayze’s career?

Latina.com in search of “Real Women”


Latina magazine might be in search for you! Latina magazine is searching for models to be featured in the “Real Women” fashion page. Too bad they are in not in my City :( but this may work for you.

Here is what they are searching for:
“First, you must live in or around New York City, so you can easily travel to our offices for fittings and photo shoots. Then, write an e-mail to realwomen@latina.com with the following information: Your full name, nationality, age, occupation, residence, dress size, hip/waist size, bust size, shoe size and both a full length and close-up photo of yourself.”

Goodluck……  :)

Michael Jackson Memorial 1958-2009 “I Will Be There”


Michael Jackson Memorial (1958-2009) “I Will Be There” will be performed today by Mariah Carey. I recall the first time I heard this piece……. it was with Mariah Carey and of course once I heard Michael Jackson I was hooked. :)

Michael Jackson (Jackson 5)

Lyrics: I Will Be There by Mariah Carey
You and I must make a pact

You know i’ll keep holdin on

If you should ever find someone new

You know i’ll be there, yeah

Napoleon Hill – Think and Grow Rich

Napoleon Hill’s famous quote “What the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve”

I have enjoyed and continue to read the works of the many great minds that have found success in their lives. Not just financial success, but the success we all search for inner peace, knowledge and wisdom leading us to financial freedom.

Brief Personal Information on Napoleon Hill:

Napoleon Hill was born in 1883 in a one-room cabin on the Pound River in Wise County, Virginia. He began his writing career at age 13 as a “mountain reporter” for small town newspapers and went on to become America’s most beloved motivational author. Hill passed away in November 1970 after a long and successful career writing, teaching, and lecturing about the principles of success. His work stands as a monument to individual achievement and is the cornerstone of modern motivation. His book, Think and Grow Rich, is the all time bestseller in the field…………………. Visit Napoleon Hill Foundation for more information.

This is a great time of the Year to share this with you and the actual PDF of his famous book “Think and Grow Rich”. Now, you can read it at no cost. No cost to you, but I am sure that you will find it filled with priceless material.

Here is the link to the Free PDF book

In this video Napoleon Hill talks about his meeting with Andrew Carnegie.

I would love to you know you think about this book. Do you have any other books you would like to recommend?

A special thanks to Ryan Wade for the link.  :)

Hmmm……. What are you thoughts?

Happy Thanksgiving

One of my favorite Memories of Thanksgiving is getting together with the others kids of family and friends. Running around driving the adults crazy. But once Charlie Brown was on TV is was total silence and the adults would gather in the kitchen.

This is a year of many thanks…. Thank you to all my readers  and Happy Thanksgiving
