Books, books, books are something I always take with me on vacation.

To achieve your goals, you must work smarter and not harder.

I believe in saying what I mean, being direct and straightforward rather than taking the passive aggressive approach…that’s so cowardly…is something I’d like you to know about me.

I have a craving for a Jack Lambert burger.

Toy boats float.

And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to hanging out with my husband at my son’s high school football game, tomorrow my plans include the making strides for breast cancer walk; manicure/pedicure; dinner with friends; and Sunday, I want to relax.
