The average billionaire (is there such a thing as an average billionaire) reads 6 business books a year that solve a clients problem. I am on Amazon ordering books right now - most of which are on the topics of speaking, twitter, and motivation. I do not have any books in my shopping cart that would help my clients - unless they are planning on speaking, tweeting and need motivation. Oh, wait, yes I do motivate - so I'll check that category off the list. Here's what I need to know from my clients, potential clients and lookie loos - what problem do you have that I can help you solve by reading a book? Come on, don't be shy - email me off the blog or call if you are shy. But hurry! I want to get this Amazon order out today (so, no pressure or anything)..............

Yesterday hubby and I went grocery shopping. A woman ahead of us in the produce section was shopping and having a friendly conversation on her cell phone. Throughout the store we kept intersecting with her. She was on the phone the whole time - and shopping! I was really curious about whether she got everything on her list - which she didn't have - or if when she got home she would realize that she forgot an item or maybe bought something she really didn't want or need. Or maybe she is some shopping/phone talking hybrid that can shop and talk at the same time. I am not a hybrid. I need total concentration when I grocery shop........otherwise products that I would never buy jump into my cart.....and then I seem to forget that one item that I really needed, like toilet paper. (let's face it, we just can' get along without it) So I want to know if you have ever shopped and talked at the same time? How did it go? Forget anything? Do or say anything embarrassing ?...

Not terribly exciting, but in one shot you will see the capri's that gave me a hassle to stay in the closet. I flung (a. k.a . donated) two bags of clothing, two decorative Christmas votive holders, a planner and an alarm clock. What have you flung today?
