So I had to establish an online account today for my business and found myself in the familiar spot of filling out username, password, and setting up a few security questions with answers in the event that I forget my username and password. It took me quite some time to figure out my security questions, […]
So you saw it too, right? 34 minutes of a blackout. Yep. 34 minutes. As every sports story mentioned today, it looked as if it was (almost) exactly what the 49ers needed. As a childhood fan, it was exciting to see them almost come back from the brink like they had done so many times […]
Last night I won a game of Monopoly. No. I dominated in a game of Monopoly. While on my speaking tour of Wisconsin, I enjoyed a nice dinner visit with a friend and her awesome kids. After dinner, I was challenged by the kids to take on the game. It was a quick one with […]

I was tired this morning. Really tired. I just enjoyed a great weekend in Arizona with my fiancé as we celebrated the wedding of one of her childhood friends. We had fun. But, I was tired when I woke up. You know that type of tired. The one where you start getting ready and as you […]
Okay, I know the title is a bit of a stretch, but the thought here is good, so give me a moment : ) Last week, I had the privilege of attending a great training put on by my friends at The Boomerang Project. It was the second time I’ve gone through the training and […]
