The one thing I absolutely love about owning a Web design, SEO and Social Media business is the variety of people I meet and interact with every day. First, there are the three guys in my office.

I’m making all of the last minute preparations for my weekend trip! Mia is watching Benjamin (wish her luck). I know they’ll have a ball though. Benjamin absolutely adores Mia and Sydney. And who wouldn’t? As you’ll read in a second, Mia is fast discovering that fact. I’ll have an update when I get back… [...]

My blog is her blog. And until she starts her own (which I think she may) Mia will be posting her story here. As most of you know my best friend Mia just found out four weeks ago that her boyfriend of 6 years and the father of her daughter is leaving. Two weeks later [...]

Seeing clearly.

January 5, 2009

I’ve been caught up in life.  It happens.  But lately it hasn’t really been my life I’ve been caught up in.  —– First there’s that Matt guy – one of the most incredible people I’ve ever met. There’s a reason why his blog has touched the hearts of hundreds and thousands… he is the real [...]

Because it just has to be said. Last week I broke the news that my best friend Mia’s boyfriend and the father of her child is moving out. Catch up here if you missed it.
