Closed is such a funny word. Closed. Closing. closed. If I type it enough it starts to look incorrect, like maybe it should be “clozed” or “cloased.” Today is the last day of ghia, my store. I’m going to concentrate on being a full-time mom for awhile. Actually, I already was a de facto full-time […]
It’s been a rough day. Nothing terribly bad happened, I’m just very tired and a little lonely. Little guy seems to have his first cold, and I’m afraid I might be in for a rough night. Our family was going to check out a new church community group tonight, but we decided to stay home
I really do want to blog more, but I put so many expectations on myself for each post that am paralyzed by perfectionism. I want to write a thoughtful rant (oxymoron?) about how the road can be shared among pedestrians, bikers, and drivers. So far, though, I haven’t had the time and/or inclination to spend
So today I’m hosting an online Mary Kay party. Online parties aren’t nearly as fun as real parties with samples and such, but they save time and gas, so I thought I would give it a try. If you are into that sort of thing, or want to try some fun, new products, hop over

If you need some great reading material, though, check out this article by Ivy at Love Shak, Baby. Ivy met me for lunch
Hey, readers, time for a little self-promotion. This Saturday, June 28, I’ll be at CRAFT’s Summer Extravaganza with ghia. You should check it out. There will be dozens of local artists peddling their fabulous work, plus a cookout to benefit East Nashville Cooperative Ministry. I’m supposed to receive a new shipment of fair trade jewelry
So, I ordered some new products for ghia. I’ve found a couple of fair trade companies that provide awesome products at very affordable prices. That’s a hard thing to do when avoiding unethical manufacturing processes (sweatshops, child labor, etc.). I’ve been trying to expand my inventory of items appropriate for guys. While ghia carries tons

Hola, my friends. Hope you are having a good week. I’m pretty good. Lots to do. Taxes, new ghia inventory, other stuff. Right now I’m re-training Cameron so that we can walk without him pulling me down the street. It’s very slow work, but I’m seeing a difference. I have some new BzzAgent reviews to
Some days I wonder if I should be blogging more about my experience as an entrepreneur. A couple of people suggested that when I first started this endeavor.
