Part 7: Saying “thank you” never goes out of fashion
The interview is concluded, you’ve gone home, and now all you can do it wait, right? Well, not exactly…
There is this old-fashioned Read More...
We dance around the obvious truth,
Others see what we turn a blind eye to,
With wonder will we ever get a clue,
And let all this passion finally bloom.
With eyes full of loving desire,
And lips that ask for just one taste more,
This hunger has caused a building fire,
That will burn until time reaches forever.
From rooftops it should be shouted, Read more…
When the stuff hits the fan, it won’t be distributed evenly.

My take: It’s all about Karma baby! You know what I mean… what goes around comes around- and sometimes front and center is NOT the best place to be!

How many types of shoes do you own? If you are like many women, the number is a high one.
We woman can become very possessive about our shoes. It is one of the few things that we splurge on, and we usually have more than one pair that looks similar.
I have done quite a bit of my shoe shopping online, after having done the research on the best sites to purchase shoes online. And I have a huge variety of styles because I have not limited myself to the shoe stores we have locally. My styles vary from casual to really dressy shoes, that can take me from the weekend sneaker to the stiletto heels that I wear on a night out. Read more…
Part 6: Interviews: You look the part…now what do you say—and not say?
So, you’ve got your hair cut, your interview outfit chosen, and the date and time are set. What else do you have to do to prepare for that all-important interview?
Well, you are going to need to bring some paper work with you. If you do not have a nice portfolio, go to a stationer’s store and buy a plain, inexpensive one to carry your documents. You want to look neat and tidy, and carrying a bulky briefcase won’t Read more…

I love you dearly, and this I think you know. But I wonder if you know the yearning way I want you so.
Like when you are near, how my body awakens and what I want has never been so clear.
Do you know that it’s enough just to think of you and suddenly my sensuality feels brand new.
I breathe deep and close my eyes… I feel you near me as I try to concentrate through excited sighs.
My hands become yours, firm and slow. I’m feeling you feel me and I Read More...
Part 5: Interviews: what they see means more than you think!
I am always amazed at people who go through all the work to secure a job interview, but put no effort into preparing for the interview itself…it’s kinda like making detailed preparations for a big wedding but making no preparation for the marriage itself!
Conventional wisdom says you should “wow” them…you should look like a page out of Vogue or GQ, you should look chic and dazzling and Read more…
I grew up in a small town, moved to the metropolitan New York area after college and spent a dozen years traveling the New Jersey turnpike to and from work. While I loved the opportunities that big city life has to offer, I yearned to give my children the same kind of small Read More...
If you have been trying to lose weight and are not having any luck, have you considered the hcg diet? Thousands of people have used this program and swear by it. It is a medically supervised program that uses a natural hormone from our bodies with a low calorie diet to help achieve weight loss. The average person loses about 20 pounds per month, and some people have reported losing 10 to 14 pounds in the first week!
Now, you may have been thinking about gastric bypass surgery or lap band surgery, but first, check out this story about the pitfalls of weight loss surgery, according to MSNBC. Read more…
There’s a skeleton in the closet,
And it won’t ever come out,
It haunts the darkness in whispered shouts,
Taunts the mind when the quiet mounts.
It’s bones rattle when silence abounds,
Screams the loudest when no one’s around,
Mournful cries leave an empty sound,
Secrets that would haunt if spoken aloud.
Hidden heartbeats threaten to reveal,
Past deeds that are best concealed,
Mired in nightmares that Read More...
Ah, the summer of 2009. This was the first season that we took our RV-ing rather seriously and made consistent family outings in the 34 foot Coachman Aurora that we called home for days at a time. When first approached by Scott with the prospect of family camping, I was more than a little bit skeptical. My family history included not tents, campfires and open air cooking, but rather charming hotels, visits to historical landmarks and sampling local cuisine. My parents were decidedly not campers.
Scott, on the other hand, savored joyous family memories of camping, chasing fireflies, catching fish that was doomed to be family dinner and non-stop outdoor fun. In theory, it all sounds Read more…

Okay, so I told you about the computer virus that I got, right? Turns out, one of my Entrecard drops decided to give it to me, and it makes it difficult in the dropping department….
So drops from Here at Angels Weekly and from
Candles, Crafts and Whatnot and Soy Wax Candles Blog are kind of lacking. I am sorry about that.
Also, while this is ongoing, I hope I will be able to continue to post the articles, but if I go down, bear with me, I am trying my best!! :) Read more…

The only difference between stumbling blocks and stepping stones is the way in which we use them.

What is beauty? They say it’s in the eyes of the beholder, but what actually beholds that one individual who can’t seem to tear their eyes away from one person or thing?
The realization that attraction is selective and not something that can be analyzed is not Read More...
What a busy week for President Barack Obama!! He was fired up and ready to go after his vacation to advocate for Health Care Reform. He did so in many ways, from taking his case from the heart of Washington out on the road to Minneapolis, Minnesota where a fired up crowd showed their hunger for the reform. During his speech the President chose to rise above the noise, and the misinformation, and pettiness that his opponents have blown it way out of porportion about this reform. Here is some of what he had to say to the crowd. ” Health Care Reform will benefit those who already have insurance ending discrimination Read more…
Hollywood has long been known to have the best looking men in the world, but did you know that some of these men rely on the little blue pill known as viagra? Yes, celebrities buy viagra and use it, and some are even open and candid about it! Take Enrique Iglesias, yes, you heard me right!! Even though he is in his 30’s, he admitted on a tv show “I don’t like Viagra. I need Viagra.” Now this can maybe be attributed to the trend going around young Hollywood these days that if you take other drugs, your performance may not be up to speed, so therefore, if you Read more…
The first sign of maturity is the discovery that the volume knob also turns to the left.

My Take:
I suppose that’s true for a lot of people, but I happen to love my music and will continue to play it loudly until I’m too old and too short of breath to sing along. So maybe I shall never grow up. And in the mean time I only worry what the neighbors think when I’m blasting Rick Springfield’s Read More...
Autumn is right around the corner. Leaves will be turning beautiful brown, yellow, and gold. The ground will become bare as it gets ready for a much needed rest. Cooler weather is here. Winter, fall and late autumn are when highly fragrant candles are enjoyed the most. A candle richly scented in fragrance can really brighten up a dull and dreary winter’s day or evening. Holidays such as Thanksgiving and Christmas when family and friends gather is the perfect time to enjoy the warmth that scented candles can provide. Spruce up your homes décor this holiday season Read more…

Congress is still on break, and the First family left in the middle of the week to go to Camp Davis to make up for their interrupted Martha’s Vineyard vacation.

Have you caught onto the new way in which infomercials are trying to get you to part with your hard earned dollars? It seems to me that it’s all about playing on our expectations.

I can’t write,
Just fight and scream,
My words have taken flight,
On wingless dreams.
My muse has gone beyond,
A mere writers block,
It’s somewhere in the sun,
While I beat my head on a rock.
I don’t understand,
Where have all the words gone,
The pen makes no more demands,
My soul has lost it’s song.
My heart is full of things,
But none fall on the page,
The words con’t make Read More...
