Life
About Me: I work fulltime, and also am launching a business with 4 other women. One job pays me & hopefully within the next year, the other one will, too.
My interests: I am very involved in my son's school, and I also serve on the Board of Directors for a local charity. My life's focus has narrowed greatly since having a child. I now have a pressing need to change the world, and my interests and hobbies tend to reflect that. Oh, and also, Tivo'ing reality shows that I pretend I don't watch.
My website/blog: http://mmm...not live yet - but will definitely post when they are!
How I de-stress: I really, really wish I could answer "Exercise", but I'd be lying. My best relaxer is simply turning off all noise and enjoying silence.
Best advice I've gotten: At work, you're a professional first, then a mom. So keep parenting talk limited to your close work friends.
An adjective to describe me: Energetic
My favorite book: One??!! Impossible. But the one book that started me on my new life path is the One Minute Millionaire.
My favorite movie: Again - one??!! What about one per category??!! Okay - if I have to name something, then I'd say I never bypass a showing of Grease or Grease 2. (don't even ask.)

My day in one word ...

My awesome accomplishment for the day ...
I set my mind to schlepping through as many of those pesky tiny little to-do's on my list that I could. And I got through a ton of them - not even done yet. I'm on a roll. Not bad for a rainy Tuesday.
