BUSY BEE


I’m so sorry for the delay in blogs and late posts. I truly appreciate all of you that tune in each week to check out my adventures.

Recently, I have been a bit of a BUSY BEE and sadly this blog is the one thing that keeps getting neglected. I’m working on another re-write of my book (boy, is this publishing process WAY longer than I would’ve ever imagined)! I’m starting a business with a friend from college (more info coming soon). I’m working with an amazing charity called Children Mending Hearts on an awesome project happening June 20th (which I will write a blog about for sure) and I continue to do random odd jobs to pay the bills (I teach music to toddlers, write for an online magazine, host events and help with marketing for a beverage company). I’m a BUSY GIRL!!

Don’t worry! I will continue to post weekly, however I am giving myself a little leeway and making things a little easier on me by devoting one post a month to sharing something I love without commentary. I will share my favorite quotes, youtube video links, poems and more that I think you will enjoy. One post a month will still be a video blog showing a quick glimpse into my world, which leaves two posts to my writing.

I thank you for continuing to check me out each week. I think YOU are FABULOUS!

A quote for this month:
We ask ourselves who am I to be BRILLIANT, GORGEOUS, TALENTED and FABULOUS? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small DOESN’T serve the world. THERE IS NOTHING ENLIGHTENED ABOUT SHRINKING SO OTHER PEOPLE WONT FEEL INSECURE AROUND YOU.
- Nelson Madela ‘94

Goodluck with the re-write and jeez you do sound busy. I don't seem to have the same stamina these days and take twice as long to accomplish what used to come easily...not good! I really look forward to all your continued blogging...in whatever shape they take :) I LOVE quotes and books, so I know I'm going to enjoy what you post.

Don't forget to slow down now and again :)

Hugs,

You know Chudney, Nelson Mandela often gets credited but that quote is by Marianne Williamson.
I love it too, I plaster it to my medicine cabinet. Stay busy girl!

Hi Chudney,

Thanks for another post & keeping us filled in on your adventures! Wow, it sounds like you have been incredibly busy! That is so exciting that you are starting your own business with a friend from college (I can't wait for more details on this)! Good luck with this business venture! I hope that it is a success for you & your friend! Also, I wish you the best of luck with your book! I can't wait for them to be on the shelves of book stores everywhere! I just completed a similar experience for a year (not exactly the same thing), but I know that it is a very time-consuming process. You will be finished with it soon, and it will be fabulous (trust me)! You have fantastic writing skills and it will be spectacular. I know that you will be able to look back at this experience one day and be very proud of it & yourself! It is nice to see that you continue use your time & talents to support charities in the middle of everything else you are doing! Good for you! (All great things!!)

It is a great idea that you will continue your weekly posts with one a month sharing things you love without commentary to give you a little extra time to work on all of your projects! It is always fun reading your adventures each week, and I thank you for doing this!

Again, I wish you the best of luck with all of your endeavors!

Sincerely,

Mark

P.S. It was so nice to see hear of your mother's support of Covenant House last week! You & your family do so many great things to help so many people in need! It is great to read wonderful things like this in the news!

Hi again Chudney,
Love this week's blogs. You told me once, that you were a very busy girl. Now after reading this week's blog, I really believe it! Stay healthy, happy and of Course FABULOUS!!!

Here's my quote for the day.

Hi Chudney
Hope you can also keep us updated on more of your accomplishments. Please let Mom know that her Web Site is due for an update. When is the next Ross album coming out (# 89 I believe!)

I got tired just from reading about all of your activities! Wow! What a way to make a difference in the world. I wish you success on the new business.

I heard that getting a book published can be a demanding thing. I hope they don't make you change your original ideas.

Don't overdo it! Take some Chudney time. Great photo, you look lovely. The blogs are always great!

Thanks for sharing.
