ThinkingOutLoudBlog.com - Out of Time

By NaturalWoman 209 days ago from http://valeriemorrison.net

How come it seems like we have all of these time saving gadgets, but less time to do things?

I posted a few things that have helped me get back on track and to get more control of my time and you'd be surprise that it doesn't always involve the latest piece of technology to get things done.

How do you handle all that l

Shameless Blog Promotion

By NaturalWoman 219 days ago from http://valeriemorrison.net

Watch the video I created that shamelessly promotes my blog. It's an easy and inexpensive way to get the word out about the minor but new changes I made to my blog and best of all, I uploaded it to YouTube, so you too can post this video on your blog. Give it a look and if you have any animation skills, contact me. I think

Do you think that giving makes you richer? Why

Money Monday Tip #20 - Prenups

By NaturalWoman 248 days ago from http://valeriemorrison.net

I can’t think of a more touchy subject when it comes to planning a marriage. In fact, many people feel that having a prenupcouple is planning for a divorce. I’ll admit if you want to break up an engagement this subject might do it.

I remember an episode on Senifeld when George wanted out of his engagement to Susan so he deci

So what I cried at the end of this movie! I cry at the end of all kid movies, The Ant Bully, The Bee Movie, Meet the Robinsons, why should this one be any different?

By NaturalWoman 258 days ago from http://valeriemorrison.net

You have to see these pictures made entirely with food. They're incredible. Not done by me, but worth a view.

Free Stuff!

By NaturalWoman 258 days ago from http://valeriemorrison.net

Do you believe in free stuff or do you think everything has a price? I always have these “arguments” with my friends who say “nothing is free” and I say maybe not, but it’s free, to me.

I do tend to walk into stores asking for samples of stuff and I get them. I guess that “sample” was not free because of the possible cost as
