Confession: I woke up this morning terrified. Today is the first day of the Live Well Women's History Month Challenge and I jumped out of bed early ready to be infused with some cosmic morsel of knowledge to boast about today. I turned on the news, cracked a window and starred at my vision board. I was in the perfect position to learn something new. Five minutes later and not a tad bit brighter, I decided this wasn't working. "I know," it told myself, "the dictionary!" So I made a deal with the universe. I would stop freaking out as long as I could learn a new word. I opened up to a random page in my Webster's Dictionary with the intent of just reading until I came across a word that I didn't know...easy breezy right? Wrong! Let's just say although you can't tell by my Word's With Friend's scores, your girl has a mean vocabulary. The dictionary wasn't helping.

If you missed our January luncheon I know you're already regretting it. We had a BALL! In my line of work I meet wonderful women every day that are doing exciting things, have amazing ideas or are just plain brilliant. We talk in bubbles about work, friends and families, but seldom do those conversations intertwine. Until now!

Sunday night I, like many others, battled the sandman in an effort to make it through the 3+ hour Grammy performance. Not because I love the Grammy's, but because I wanted to see the tribute to Whitney Houston. I just knew Jennifer Hudson and Chaka Khan would move me to tears and allow me to rest peacefully through the night. To my dismay there was no Chaka... Jennifer did her thing, but I was left wanting more. So I called it a night and went to my room.

After playing Words with Friends with a couple of my BFF's I decided to check Facebook before calling it a night. To my surprise I was inundated with status updates from people who were pretty much calling for Nicki Minaj to be stoned. Comments ranged from, "What was that" to "Off with her head." Pretty much everyone was condemning poor Barbie to hell without a popsicle.

Every day I am reminded of just how strong and resourceful women can be. In times when "reality" TV has us looking like raging bitches that cut each other's throats and cat fight for a living, it is extremely important to me that I remind myself of a more balanced reality. The women that I meet every day aren't sleeping with basketball players or musicians and they aren't using their rent money to buy boobs. Every day I have the opportunity to talk to amazing women like Aimee Brittain owner of Pretty Frugal Diva.
