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.

Fun career site to check out...

In my quest to find all things work related and fun, today I ran across "Karen Burns' - Working Girl" website, which offers career advice. Very cute site; take a look at the 59 jobs she's held over the last 48 years of her life. Whew....
One question: Where are the "Working Guys"? I know you're out there - somewhere...
