Money ~ Power ~ Respect

Wow! I am really slipping here with the blogging.  I've definitely got to do a better job at managing my time and making the time to blog on a consistent basis - phew!  But I am determined to do just that.  Vogue's March  issue titled "The Power Issue" helped me put some pep in my step.  With Lady GaGa on the cover I was compelled to read it, but once I opened it there were lots of articles about women famous and not so much who are making power moves.  Those with hectic schedules, kids, demanding careers, etc.  So I thought to myself - Get it together girl!

Soooo, what's been going on - Money, Power, Respect...

Money
Corporate America never ceases to amaze me.  I've gotten a promotion, ummm about two months ago, but am still working in my current position.  When will I transition??  Good question.  Tell you more about that later.  But very excited about the promotion - right on track with the goal I set for myself.  A promotion with a side of raise.

Power
Lots of volunteering - here, there, and everywhere.  Hey - trying to get my philanthropy on!  The power of giving (time, money, advice, skills) is priceless, nothing compares.

Respect
Hmmmm - what else - joined a book club through www.meetup.com.  Very cool, check it out.  We just finished "The Glass Castle" by Jeannette Walls.  Very, very good book - check that out too.  Next up - "Water for Elephants".  Respecting myself by continuing to learn, grow and meet new people.
