Lenten Giving Week 2

funfelt — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 08:16:48 +0000

Here are some of the last places I’ve given extra $5+ lately. It’s been fun but I admit I’ve taken the easy way out and just given extra tips to some places, or donated something online when I ran out of ideas/time to donate otherwise. But it still feels good to give more than I [...]

Week One - Lenten Giving

funfelt — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 23:03:57 +0000

This year I decided instead of giving something up, I would give something. Around the first of the year I began a new healthy living plan where I have given up caffeine (my biggest addiction until then) and given up most sugar, alcohol and artificial preservatives. So there was not much left (food-wise at least) [...]

Are Entrepreneurs In It for the Money or to Help People?

I went to a Meetup last week where Christine Comaford spoke of many different things, primarily how to achieve a 7 figure income. It was a very inspiring talk. I had not yet begun to reach that far ahead in my dreams but now I feel I am! When I was sharing some of what [...]

My Baby is Six

I’ve been emotional all week. I can’t explain it. Other kids have turned 6, he isn’t the only one. I think the difference is that he is my last but more importantly that he has had a real turn this past year. From the day he was born he was much more of a challenge [...]

Patience and Love

My 15 year old went to a youth group retreat last weekend and it had a profound effect on her. She told me a couple of days later that she was seeing everyone differently now. What they had done at the retreat was spent some time looking for the gifts that others possess. Not talents [...]

Personal Development Never Ends

Wow, what a weekend. Greg and I just got back from a weekend seminar called “Beyond Reasons,” taught by Betty Jo Waxman through the Productive Learning and Leisure company. I’ve been to several personal development courses, and this was Greg’s first. It was an eye opening experience in several ways, even though I’ve “gone there” before. [...]

This poem was shared with some of the Story Time Felts leaders on our weekly phone call by our Founder/CEO Lori Whiting. I love it! Thought you might, too!

Facebook Do’s and Don’ts

Facebook Do’s and Don’ts Karen Clark ~ www.mybusinesspresence.com ~ karen@mybusinesspresence.com It seems as more people join Facebook the lines between personal and business are being blurred. For some people, connections with friends and family are the only reason they are here. For others, promoting their business is their main reason. And still others combine [...]

Twitter Unfairly Suspended Me

funfelt — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 01:10:15 +0000

Update: The problem has been corrected and Twitter has explained it (somewhat) here: http://status.twitter.com/post/136164828/restoring-accidentally-suspended-accounts Since I cannot access my Twitter account to tweet about this I guess I’ll just have to blog about it! Since I have found I am not the only one affected by this problem, I sure hope Twitter fixes it! So I came [...]
