There was no hesitation when I first read about Jason's latest "Inspired By Music" contest. Paul Anka's "My Way" would have to be my theme song!
Paul Anka has had hit songs in every decade since his first #1 hit in 1957, "Diana", at the tender age of 17. He (13 comments)

Lola Audu has written a thoughtful post about multitasking. We all seem to be doing more things at once, and having less patience for any of them. Is multitasking a way that allows us to get 31 hours out of a 24 hour day? Or is it a prescription for raising (17 comments)

I have been recently "tagged" for Memes (separately) by Jeannie Kontis and Lisa Ryan! I had originally done my first Meme, Really? Me and My MEME back in August, so I don't want to repeat anything I've already talked about. It's not as easy trying to come up with a second (20 comments)

I remember the real estate market in 1981 and 1982, when adjustable rates soared to 18% and more. I was caught with some of those terrible mortgages on investments, and I learned some valuable lessons.
I found out that the limit of your profit, if you are planning to fix and (10 comments)

For the past year, my home has been filled with the books, photos and memorabilia of two households - my own, and much of my parents'.
