Leisure Engagement Passion

Okay, I know that if I have too many things on my plate, I don’t really get anything done.  It’s not helping that I’m a Libra and it goes with the territory.  I’ve tried making a list of to do’s for the day, the week, and each day seems to just pass on to the next.  I guess eliminating one to do is not enough if it doesn’t include making more than one business call to a United First Financial lead.  Right now life is just gettting in the way and it’s making me a little upset.  It could drive a person to drink, but then I would have to worry about being arrested like the bachelor girl Mary Delgado.

I’ve been so busy with my J.O.B. and being confused about packing up my house that my real passion of online marketing has taken a back seat.  Fortunately I had the chance to get back in gear today and listen in to a webinar from UBranding.com to learn about twitter.com.  I had come to know about twitter listening to the CNN news and watching the twitter updates during the election and thought it was pretty cool.  I figured I’d get to it sometime but figured since I was already online and watching the webinar I might as well register at the same time as to not waste too much time.  I only ‘tweeted’ once and if I can figure how to do it on my iphone, that will probably make it alot more effiecient for me.

Oh my gosh, I just finished watching the “roast” at the Alfred E Smith charity dinner. Now that was funny.

I think more people would have watched the debates if our two Presidential Candidates, Senator Obama and Senator McCain, were able to go at each other the way they did. Not only did they make fun of one another but also of themselves. It was hilarious and if you have a chance, Google it, I’m sure it’s on YouTube. Although the purpose was to be funny and it was meant to be funny, some of it was pretty sharp and this setting was probably the only setting that either one of them could have gotten away with the punches. Both of their writers did a great job.

I listened to the last debate last night and basically it was more of the same from both candidates. Senator McCain appeared, to me, to be angry that he wasn’t being heard. I was watching the debate on CNN and you could actually hear Senator McCain sighing into the microphone. Whether the Senator was aware of his sighing or not, his facial expressions also gave into his anger. As far as Joe the Plumber, and making a case for Senator McCain, I think it would have made a better impact if he didn’t keep repeating his case. The rebuttal by Senator Obama made sense, but enough already. Anyway, I’m glad the debates are finally over; I’ll still watch CNN and MSNBC and hear the candidates on the campaign trail and as far as Joe the Plumber, keep your head above water…better, maybe go have a cold one with Joe Six pack.

I had a chance to login to our Ubranding forum yesterday evening and the voting was over for our Money Merge Account website competition. Financialfreedomresolution.com didn’t place first but the knowledge I received from the process was worth all the effort I put in. I learned also that we all are very passionate and determined to bring United First Financial into every household. The more positive and personal results we share with those looking for a change in their financial future the better for our entire Country as a whole. Considering the mess we are bombarded with every day in the News, we the people have to make the individual changes first, see and feel the results and then create a synergy amongst a small group and let that momentum roll into a full movement that will be the norm. Change is difficult until it becomes what everybody else is doing.

I’ve had to take a break from our United First Financial business these last few days. I just learned that my father-in-law has terminal lung cancer. Ironically, we had made plans for a trip back to Hawaii to visit family and when we called to say we were on our way, BAM, the unfortunate news. My husband and I were back and forth earlier in the month about should we visit now, maybe for the holidays, maybe for the New Year, but I reminded him his parents weren’t getting any younger and since we have airline privileges and I don’t have to work my “JOB” let’s just go. The Lord works in mysterious ways. We’ve never been one’s to say it’s just coincidence and I’m glad I listened to my sixth sense. Family first, business can wait.

WOW! My first attempt here at a blog and it has come with new challenges that I could have prevented. I ended up uploading and reloading this site not once, but twice. I even had a couple of posts each time, which evaporated along with each reload. So here I go again. The good news is I am on my way finally. I hope…
