Unfortunately.... I neglected to bring access to my website here on my laptop. :(
So, I will share
everything here!
I've shared that I'm instagramming everything over at:
Alas, yesterday was mainly food pix and me exercising pix. The ultimate of excitement.... gnope. :) So what happened to me? Relaxation! :)
I did share this, however:
"...A wonderful story:
"...Every Sunday morning I take a light jog around a park near my home. There’s a lake located in one corner of the park.
Each time I jog by this lake, I see the same elderly woman
sitting at the water’s edge with a small metal cage sitting beside her.
This past Sunday my curiosity got the best of me, so I stopped jogging and walked over to her. As I got closer, I realized that the metal cage was in fact a small trap. There were three turtles, unharmed, slowly walking around the base of the trap.
She had a fourth turtle in her lap that she was carefully scrubbing with a spongy brush.
“Hello,” I said. “I see you here every Sunday morning. If you don’t mind my nosiness, I’d love to know what you’re doing with these turtles.”
She smiled. “I’m cleaning off their shells,” she replied.
“Anything on a turtle’s shell, like algae or scum, reduces the turtle’s ability to absorb heat and impedes its ability to swim. It can also corrode and weaken the shell over time.”
“Wow!
That’s really nice of you!” I exclaimed.
She went on: “I spend a couple of hours each Sunday morning, relaxing by this lake and helping these little guys out. It’s my own strange way of making a difference.”
“But don’t most freshwater turtles live their whole lives with algae and scum hanging from their shells?” I asked.
“Yep, sadly, they do,” she replied.
I scratched my head. “Well then, don’t you think your time could be better spent? I mean,
I think your efforts are kind and all, but there are fresh water turtles living in lakes all around the world. And 99% of these turtles don’t have kind people like you to help them clean off their shells. So, no offense… but how exactly are your localized efforts here truly making a difference?”
The woman giggled aloud. She then looked down at the turtle in her lap, scrubbed off the last piece of algae from its shell, and said, “Sweetie, if this little guy could talk,
he’d tell you I just made all the difference in the world.” "
=================
Your takeaway? Never let what others don't understand... stop you from making the kind of difference you crave in the world...."
Isn't that sweet?
In other Lingland news, might have had a breakthru with my youngest so yay! Being away from the house, methinks, certainly forced him to grow up a wee bit so yay.
Today, I will finish up me templates and get my morning walking/etc. in as well.
And marketing wise? Lookie here!

Don't forget yesterdays:
Really amazed I had stopped using
that app... it automatically posts to FB too and Twitter so.... what's not to adore?
Anywhos!
Yesterday, I spent bunches of time doing templates and such, and also wrote:
"Why do some
marketers spend time trying to tear others down instead of focusing on their own business and building that up?
I truly do not get how petty, spiteful and just plain tweebly some of my colleagues can be.
And even worse?
Why do some marketers diss their colleague's success?
Whenever I see folks really making it big, it gives me an emotional boost as well! I *love* cheering others on. I truly do. Their wins don't take *anything* from me; on the contrary, their wins inspire those who follow them and perhaps infuses said followers with confidence to finally try
things on their own.
What on earth could possibly be negative about that?
Hmmm?
You're my competitor? Grand! Let me know affiliate links I can request and promote your quality goodies, for I choose to
see you as my *colleague* instead.
You beat me out for anything in our industry? Magnificent! Your wins take nothing from me (except, well, perhaps, that particular win :) ) but I choose to view things in the long term.
You win some, you lose some... at the end of our lives, it all evens out anywhos.
I much prefer embracing the concept we're all in this together.
Your takeaways?
Don't sweat the small stuff. Don't give into spiteful jerkiness... all that does is show your colleagues quite what a small mind you possess.
Coffee?"
Seriously...
It is to wonder.
I did manage to hobble around the town square (yay!) and also
did 30 minutes on the recumbant bike (yay!) and yep....
It's really grand to have this break.
Plus marketing wise? Here's what went live:

Don't forget yesterdays:
Took my 2 eldest out for lunch at a Chinese buffet that puts NJ to shame.
Amazing food!
Then I discovered a really nifty farmers market. I bought handmade soap (lilac scented) and saw lots of local artisans and vendors. Really nice.
Workwise, the latest by Dennis and me is going grand! It's called "Prepping for 100K" and while the thrust
is for newbies, the tip I offer regarding creating your own high level coaching right from the get-go is the stuff of masterminds.

And lots of good

'Twas quite the earlobe of a day.

Until 7:30am. And we discovered the plane needed a new plane or whatever....
Got to Seattle 2.5 hours late. :(
