Escape From Cubicle Nation
Anyone who knows me knows that I love marketing and social economics. And I’d love to write really intelligently and concisely on this exact subject. But then there’s someone else who does it for me – like Pamela Slim of Escape From Cubicle Nation. Her recent post on speaking, presentations, blogging, phone and email communications […]
Club Organize and other teaching stuff . . .
The NAPO Nashville board met this morning to review our upcoming Club Organize. The event takes place on March 13th & 14th at Christ United Methodist Church in Franklin. This is a great way for people to dabble in getting organized. All of the area Professional Organizers will be there either on hand or teaching […]
direct link to not getting phone books
http://www.yellowpagesgoesgreen.org/ Here’s the link to getting out of the deliveries of the phone books – a direct link rather than the blog post I posted earlier. I’ve been registered now. Phone books are one of those things that I rarely, if ever, use and they take up a lot of space. In my tiny house […]
twitter thoughts
I recently got a twitter account and I’m not sure what to make of it. I decided to follow a few people and see what happens. Being kind of a talker, it’s hard to keep my thoughts to a minimum. Then, I have to wonder – does anyone really care if my cat is trying […]
I finally got a twitter account and have decided to go ahead and see what it can do. I’m just fascinated by the interactions of those who really embrace technology and I know that I can use it to my own benefit, and to benefit others. Although I do have to wonder how many people […]

You know what’s weird, is that I started to write a post, then decided I didn’t want to write that post and switched to this one. The thing is, the original post had some content, that, if seen by 1 or 2 people could potentially be hurtful to them, or to me in a business sense. […]
feeling out of sorts
My husband recently took a new position with a great company called Conservation Services Group. They do home energy audits and other energy related things, and recently took a contract with TVA to work with local energy companies. This is all great – we’ve closed his inspection company and he’s full time with CSG now. […]
less is more . . . and breathing is good
I work with a lot of clients who have trouble remembering things, or misplace their stuff. I always tell them that it is pretty normal to do this – even us <professionals have had this happen. But the longer I do this, and the more I streamline my life, the more I realize that the […]
home energy audits – and a new job for my husband
As some of you may know, my husband has been a home inspector for a while. With the downturn in the market, we did some re-evaluating and I basically said to him, “when the market picks back up, is this what you want to continue doing?”. He thought about if for a while and realized […]
