The Power of a Woman…

My son told me a few days ago that his girlfriend discovered my blog. That puts a whole new paranoid spin on my blogging, as you can probably imagine. I’m now re-evaluating stuff wondering if I’m setting a good example for a young lady that I know personally. I have determined that I probably am not… so I’m now enjoying the cool, comfortable sense of relief that such a realization brings.

Being an Internet entrepreneur, you would think I’d already learned to take change as it comes — even to welcome it, and to stir things up when change doesn’t come along of its own accord.

Among those functions that I use on a “many times a day” basis, is the eWallet. I have both the desktop and the Palm version and I swear by them. In fact, when I met with a client for all-day consulting session on Saturday, the use of a password wallet came up. She said that she just set all her passwords the same, to keep it easy to remember… being the security freak that I am, I pitched a mini-fit!

Eureka! I Think I Finally Figured It Out… Karma, Ex-spouses and the Balance in the Universe

Challenges abound when you have an ex. Anyone who has one, or knows someone who has one, understands. I actually had a friend ask me yesterday if I killed someone brutally in a previous life to deserve my own ex nightmares. I had to laugh… ok, maybe it was more of a whine.But then it hit me… and I figured it out.
