Goodbyes

Stumbled across this on Pinterest:

The most painful goodbyes are the ones that are never said and never explained.

Boom. That is all.

Hey there!

Welcome to my little space where I ramble some, share some, and maybe even rant a bit. I'm just a girl (50+ but I still think of myself as a girl) who tries to see joy and humor in life, but sometimes stumbles and gets stuck in the muck. Life is what we make it and I want mine to be happy. Read More…

I ask this all the time…how does your site look on devices? Swipe for a few projects I just added to my portfolio.

I’m looking forward to some time with my iPad relaxing this weekend while camping.

WAIT!!!! Do not update WordPress to 5.8 yet!!! Hold off until you see the update for 5.8.1. It's a big update and I always recommend on the big numbers to wait until the next update (usually an "x.x.1" or more) because that will be the one that fixes any bugs or issues. If you have already updated to 5.8 be sure to update to any additional updates as they are released to get the latest improvements.

Announcing 🥳 its my launch 🚀 day!!!

I moved my site to Kadence and I loving the features and functionality. So many options and ways to present your information and services…it’s so cool. Let’s have some fun and redesign your website on Kadence. You could launch by the end of August. Level up your current site or start a new one. It’s a great time to start a new business.

Let’s work together and make some magic. Give me your wishlist and I will do the rest.

This is one of my favorite quotes...ever! All we can do is learn and strive to do better each day.

I have several favorite Maya Angelou quotes. And Leo Tolstoy. Do you have a favorite inspirational quote?

During the weekends are you on your phone less or more?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Personally, I keep trying to pick it up less on the weekends. But this little computer in my pocket is constant access to work that I want to do (social media and list-making) and work that I try to make wait until office hours. It delivers emails and asks for attention even when I'm "off the clock." But it also allows me to handle some things quickly without a trip to my office downstairs.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As solopreneurs its a challenge to draw a box around work time and personal time. I can work from anywhere in my home and going to the office is as easy as a walk downstairs. It does tend to make me have some workaholic tendencies.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Boundaries are hard....for me. How about you? I would love to hear about what boundaries and limits you have to keep work life and personal life a bit separate. Let me know. I've been trying a few things out the past few weeks and I have a few new ideas for next week. I would love to hear what works (and doesn't work for you).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Enjoy your Sunday and I hope your phone is part of your relaxation strategy.

Hey there! 👋🏻 What is your biggest struggle

Hey there! 👋🏻 What is your biggest struggle with your website?

Let me know in the comments. Feel free add your own pain point not on the list.

We are half way to the weekend! I hope you had a great Wednesday.

Tuesday Tip: Is your most important content above

Tuesday Tip: Is your most important content above the fold and easy to find?

A few things to think about for your above the fold section of your homepage:

•Welcome message

•Tell a new visitor what they will find on your site and why they should scroll down and read more (subtly)

•Make your most important thing easy to find - whether that is to sign up for your newsletter or your service or product

•Beautiful imagery

•White space

•Direct the reader where you want them to go next

I would love to hear your questions or comments. What do you like to see first when you are browsing the web?

If you are ready for a redesign or need a new website I have one spot open for a mid-August or September start date.

Tips from a first time electric scooter rider that

Tips from a first time electric scooter rider that also apply to business and life…

1. Don’t jump off when you’re scared.

2. Keep going, it builds confidence.

3. Keep your eyes on the road and what’s ahead of you.

4. Relax and enjoy the moment you’re in.

5. Don’t let being scared stop you.

Let me preface this with…I haven’t been on anything with wheels (other than the the back of a motorcycle) since I was a teenager….that’s a long time. And I’m pretty clumsy.

“It’ll be fun” my husband said. 😳😬

Well it was fun, but scary as hell for me. I was very aware of the unforgiving sidewalk or road beneath me. Very aware of what would happen to me if I fell. Scared of the speed and steering and watching where I was going so many things to think about.

But I was also exhilarated as the adrenaline was pumping and the endorphins of having FUN were flowing.

Just when I’d get going really well I’d realize I was scared and I’d jump off. No braking or slowly down…just jump off. Twice I almost bit the dust or the concrete/asphalt because I was going so fast jumping off was the dumbest thing I could do. 😳😬 But I panicked.

Today I’m sitting here happy to have survived and enjoyed the little adventure and realizing how many times do we “jump off” because of fear in life or in our businesses???

Can you relate? Let me know in the comments.

And if you’re scared I encourage you to just let off the gas or pump the brakes a little before you jump off and almost hit the pavement. Consider where you can recalibrate or slow down before you jump off or give up on something that you are enjoying.

Summer is bursting with inspiration. Every where I

Summer is bursting with inspiration. Every where I look there are amazing colors and beauty. I love bringing colors from nature into web design and branding.

I am going to challenge myself to create color palette each week from a picture I take for the rest of the the summer. I took this picture yesterday of my daughter’s apricot tree.

Summer colors: apricots.

Have a wonderful weekend.
