Friday Random Round-Up
I’ve been super busy working on a couple of presentations for upcoming speaking gigs. I love doing the research but find myself distracted because we also have to finalize the plans for the new house (more research) and pack up all our stuff with an 11-month old who has picked NOW to start getting wigged out by new people, places and things.
So it’s stressful but it’s a good, happy kind of stress. My husband and I are going to build our dream home — and it’s going to be pretty “green” (environmentally friendly) with great energy efficiency. Our baby is going to get to grow up in this new house which will be healthier for him and the planet. And we’ll be living in a neighborhood that I LOVE. I really can’t wait.
In the meantime, I’ll be a little nuts and I’m sure it’ll be reflected in even more random posts than usual. Bear with me!

Another cute owl mobile that didn’t make my owl post. I saw this on Gifts Define Facebook page. It was a custom order and I said, “hey, you should make that available in your shop,” and they did – the day after my owl post went live. I wanted you owl-lovin’ folks to see it, though, as I think it would make a darling addition to an owl or woodland creature themed nursery.
Pregnancy Posts. I am loving the pregnancy posts at DesignMom. DesignMom is pregnant (with her sixth!) and is posting pregnancy stories from other women. They are well-written, some touching, some funny, but all of them made me smile. Even though I HATED being pregnant (something I’m going to tell you more about next week).
My Best Friend’s Birthday. Today is Terri’s birthday. She is my best friend. You know the one you can call for anything, any time. We’ve known each other for 17 years and through a series of jobs and coincidences, have actually lived in three states, worked at the same companies, and lived in the same zip codes. She is an amazing woman and I wanted all of you to know it. Here’s one of my favorite wedding day pics of the two of us. Even though you can’t see our faces, I think it says it all. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, T!
