I think my life gets off balance when I get obsessed with things. Right now I am obsessed with online stuff so I am spending way to much time on the net.
I try to go outside and redirect my energy but then as soon as I come back inside I am on the internet again.
It’s not like I am playing around on the internet. I am actually doing work but it’s probably work that doesn’t have to be done all in one day. I usually get on an idea and then there is just no stopping me.
I did lunge my horse today, I pick some weeds, water some trees and my garden and played with my 3 yr old for a while.
Since HerProBlog.COM is officially launched I have more time to work on some other things I have been neglecting. I updated my horse community. I really like how it looks now.
The other day I worked on changing the logo for iwebis but that didn’t turn out very well. I still need to come up with a better logo.
So as you can see, I have been working on important things. I just need to figure out how to not be so obsessed with getting things done when there is no deadline. I guess I trying to get things done before school starts again which is next month. Next month!!! Oh boy.
The Balance Issue Again
Published at July 22nd, 2008HerProBlog.COM Has Finally Launched!
Published at July 15th, 2008It’s been a rough couple of week because of how busy I was with this project but now it’s finally launched.
July 15, 2008 marks the first official launch date of a project I have been working on for over a year and a half. It’s been a lot of hard work but is one of the most exciting projects I have ever worked on.
HerProBlog.COM is a website dedicated to helping women bloggers create and maintain professional quality blogs. The project has already brought a lot of interests and subscribers. The website is starting out with a some great stats:
Page Rank 3
132 Subscribers
426,000 Alex Rank
HerProBlog.COM is a multi-authored blog. We have a total of seven authors including myself.
I would love for you to stop by my new website. Men and women both can benefit from this site.
Busy, Busy, Work, Work - This Summer is Flying By.
Published at July 8th, 2008It seems this summer is just zooming by. I think it’s because how busy I have been with the HerProBlog.COM project. A lot of sweat and tears have been poured into this project. Not to mention, many, many hours.
I am excited to announce that HerProBlog.COM will be launching on July 15th. That’s right! Only seven days from now. It’s exciting but scary at the same time. I have been working on this project for over a year and a half and now it’s almost time for launch. Like I said, exciting but scary.
I have also decided to find a co-author for Time To Budget. The blog is doing really well even though I hardly write on it anymore. I thought that in order for the blog to grow I would need to get more content coming out of it. So I have hired a fellow Financial Peace University student to be a co-author.
My poor iwebis has been neglected to but I think I will be able to get back into a regular blog routine after the launch. Well, maybe not right after launch but soon after.
I have been hanging around social networks a lot lately. I started using hellotxt which has been helping me update my micro blogging sites.
There has been a lot more going on but don’t have time to write about it all today.
Myths and Realities of Mixed Race Identity - Video
Published at June 11th, 2008I stumbled across this video today and I found it very interesting. NewDemographic published this video on mixed race identity. This video was submitted two years ago but I think its timeless information. Being of mixed race myself (black and white or African American and Caucasian if you would rather) , I can identify with many of the points made in this video.

Looking Forward to Summer
Published at May 27th, 2008This past weekend was cold and wet and I am ready for warmer weather. It does get warm where I live so I hope it’s a mild summer but I have had enough of this cold weather.
I hope to be able to get out with my horses more this summer. I always tell myself that I am going to do more with them but for whatever reason I never do as much as I would like. So, I guess we will just have to see how things go. I also hope to volunteer at a local horse rescue. I really like this rescue and want to be able to give back this summer.
I just want to make sure I don’t spend all my summer in front of my computer, so this is why I am thinking so much about what to do. I remember one summer I was glued to my computer and it was not fun for me or my family. Balance is an important part of life that I am learning.
My New Work Hours - 6 am - 8 am
Published at May 6th, 2008About two weeks ago I decided I needed to schedule new work hours. Normally I work throughout the day getting a little bit done at a time. Several causes for unproductive work days were distractions, distractions and more distractions. The only time I would be free of distractions was in my sleep. But since I don’t actually work in my sleep-only dream about working-sleep hours don’t count as work.
I decided I needed to get up before the rest of the family because I can get more work done when the house is quiet and my mind is fresh. The most difficult part of all this is that I have to get up out of bed so early. I don’t like getting up out of bed in the morning but once I am up I love the morning hours.
I have been working on my new site HerProBlog.COM like a crazy women so I really needed to set productive work ours.
