Sometimes you have to take the leap and build your wings on the way down. In the new forty that is what I am doing – building my wings.

September 9, 2011 Ms. C1 Comment

I receive over 100 emails a day across my two main email accounts on a slow day.  Of those emails I typically delete about 25% outright, read 25% before deleting or filing them, respond to another 25% and retain the remaining 25% emails in files to read or respond to later.   On a day when I am [...]

Sweet little lies…

March 26, 2011 Ms. CLeave a comment

After reviewing my email today I am singing to myself a line from Fleetwood Mac's song Little Lies - "Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies."  It all started with the following email subject line from Shape FX: Get Toned, Flawless Legs Now In Our Push-Up Leggings!‏ Okay then...so you are saying that I [...]

A state of ignorance…

February 26, 2011 Ms. CLeave a comment

I must confess that I had been actively engaging in a state of ignorance over the past handful of months.  I knew it was probably not right, but I did it anyway - perhaps because facing the reality head-on was too much at the time or perhaps because I am obstinate.  Regardless of the reason [...]

Are you calling me a fathead?

February 3, 2011 Ms. CLeave a comment

Interpretation...it is amazing how different that can be from one person to the next.  That is why folks can stand in art museums and be looking at the same piece of art but see or feel different things.  It's the whole premise of beauty is in the eye of the beholder - as is also [...]

The next episode of hoarders…

November 21, 2010 Ms. C1 Comment

I had an epiphany yesterday and it wasn't pretty.  I had to face the reality that I am a hoarder.  Yes...a hoarder. Not like those folks you see on T.V. who have stuff stacked everywhere in their house and can barely move about it (albeit, my post-flood house does presently sort of look like that).  [...]

What’s NAUGHTY, see-thru, has garters & is only $7.99?

August 24, 2010 Ms. C3 Comments

Admit it...the title of this blog compelled you to look at the content inside.  You don't have to pretend with me.  I know it is hard to walk away from a blog titled as such without at least taking a peek.  How do I know? Well, this was the subject line in an email that [...]

Gridlock

July 8, 2010 Ms. CLeave a comment

My information superhighway is experiencing a traffic jam. Okay, traffic jam is too gracious a term - really it is gridlock - nothing is moving except perhaps some choice fingers.  As I type this my two email accounts collectively hold more than 1,200 unread emails.  Yes, more than 1,200 UNREAD emails.  Those unread emails represent [...]
