10 things you probably didn’t know about me

August 28, 2013

I had the good fortune to attend two awesome conferences last week. On Saturday, it was off to WordCamp Providence. For those of you unfamililar with WordCamps, they’re WordPress community events featuring talks about all things WordPress. Plus, you get a WordCamp t-shirt! From August 19 – 22, I was at Hubspot’s Inbound Marketing Conference […]

A fun time at WordCamp Providence

August 21, 2013

Have you ever been to a WordCamp? If not, you should go. I love WordPress and I love learning new things about it. I’ve been fortunate to attend WordCamps in Boston and New York. This year’s WordCamp Boston isn’t until October, so I was excited to find out about WordCamp Providence would be held August […]

The secret to achieving balance

August 14, 2013

Kayaking! Well, that was the answer for me. I love it when a hobby teaches you more than you expected. I knew kayaking was good for my body and my mind, but I’m finding it’s also good for teaching me more life lessons. This time, the lesson is all about balance. Here’s how kayaking has […]

How I spent my summer vacation

August 7, 2013

Ah, summertime. Long sun-filled days, the desire to be outdoors all the time and the slower pace. We weren’t able to take a full-fledged vacation this summer since I don’t want to leave my Mom for more than a few days. That didn’t stop me from enjoying the glorious summer days. I love kayaking more […]

Tea time!

July 31, 2013

I’ve been reading a lot about happiness and what makes some people happy and others not. It’s all about how you view your circumstances. I also believe that things happen for a reason. So I have been having some stomach issues, which meant I have to eat a very bland diet. This also meant no […]

What happens when you take a new road?

July 24, 2013

I love walking, but since like most people, I’m a creature of habit so I tend to walk the same routes. This past Saturday I decided to take a different path. I went on the other side of the rail road station and found the most delightful country road. To think I’ve lived in this […]

Face your fear

July 17, 2013

In my younger days, I was fearless. I went from a small suburban town to living in New York City and I loved every minute of it. Something happened though as I got older. I can’t say it’s because I got wiser; it seems I lost part of my self. The good news is I’m […]

I hate the new Flickr design – what about you?

July 10, 2013

Flickr used to be my go to place for finding images to use in my blog. I’d go in via Creative Commons. It took me a while to figure out which search terms work best, but after a few tries and just coming up with lots of boring pictures of random people, I figured it […]

Anatomy of a blog post

July 3, 2013

So last week I had a creative block, in spite of having a fun and engaging week. Well, it happens. The easy way out would be just skip my blog post for the week, but I really wanted to keep up the momentum of weekly posts. As I was struggling to finalize last week’s post […]

What’s new in marketing

June 26, 2013

Last week was a fun and productive one. I attended a marketing conference and a social media seminar. But, I also had writer’s block and was drawing a complete blank on what to write in my blog this week. So, when all else fails, I write about what I learned. I love going into Boston. […]
