Social Media Sabbatical- Update Month 3

Detox Update-Social Media Sabbatical, Day 30-ish
Social Media Sabbatical ~ it’s been 30 days since my last…. indulgence.:-) [if you want to read Part 1 of my Social Media Sabbatical, click here] Hi, my name is Sandy and I’m a Facebooking Twitt-aholic The first 2 weeks were the hardest. It’s really humorous to watch your brain as it thinks in 140 characters and status postings. I find myself wanting to take pictures of a beautiful dessert or a fabulous cocktail and share it, but where do I share... Read More
Social Media Sabbatical
So, I’m not entirely sure how I decided that I needed a Social Media Sabbatical, like, right this very minute, but I just asked my good friend Melani to change the passwords on my Facebook & Twitter accounts and had her promise not to tell me what they are, no matter how much I might beg and plead until next year. January. 1st. 2012. Whaaaaaa? How am I going to do this? I think I might be cheating already. Because I’m writing this before I’ve actually... Read More
Yeah, I’m Lazy
I joke quite a bit about being lazy. I get a lot done, but I also treasure my downtime. My friends make fun of (and my daughters despise) my “one thing a day” rule. I don’t like to be over scheduled, so I always build in plenty of time to relax, or if that’s just not possible when I’m working on a big deadline, I make sure to plan something FUN as soon as my deadline is met. The other day my youngest daughter said; “Hey Mom, I heard your... Read More

Life Happens
“Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans” – John Lennon Have you heard this line from the John Lennon song, “Beautiful Boy”? This pretty much describes my week. Tuesday morning, 8:10am I’m sitting in my big comfy bed, with a steaming cup of café mocha, kissing my husband goodbye as he leaves for work. I’m looking at my schedule for the day and making plans to meet him for cocktails and a networking party after work. My daughters... Read More
