The Radio Show

If you missed our radio show and how to start a Praise and Coffee Night, here it is:

And I'm so sorry for my very naughty dogs that were attacking the poor cable guy during the show.

Terror, Baked Beans and a Radio Show

Good morning girlfriends!

If you want to skip all the bunny trails on this post, just click over here to read my article today at the cafe':

"Some Paths Are Lined With Terror (Avoid Those)"

But if you're willing to take a plunge, here we go.

So, how is your week going so far? Mine's pretty good. I've been getting ready for my buddies to come. Melissa and Ronel are getting on planes tomorrow to come hang out here in Michigan for a few days with me.
There will be much coffee drinking, giggling and probably some tears involved. That's life with girlfriends.

And sometimes with daughters...like last night when my daughter and I were watching tv.

My husband, bless his sweet heart, has a cold. A terrible cold. He's a hot mess when his sinuses decide to rebel on him. Red face, sniffly, coughing and blotchy.

Well, he went to bed early and Steph and I sat up watching old Burn Notice re-runs that she missed. I love Burn Notice, probably because Fiona is my alter ego. Or because I love her shoes. What's cooler than blowing things up while running around on 6 in wedges?

Anyways, my husband yells down from upstairs, "Sue? Will you warm up the beans."

I immediately pictured the pot on the stove from dinner, half full of baked beans.
Yes, I left the dinner dishes.
In this house, with grown children (and their girlfriends), I never know when someone might sweep through the kitchen and eat the leftovers.

And, I was lazy. Words With Friends was much more appealing than dish pan hands.

But, I was surprised that he was hungry for baked beans at 10pm.
And then he added, "so I can put them on my face."

This really threw me until after a very confused few seconds I realized he meant the BAG of beans that you warm up in the microwave and put on the parts of your body that hurt. The warmth is soothing for sinuses.

But with wrinkled face I looked at Steph and whispered, "I thought he meant the baked beans."
We both sat there and laughed our heads off a few minutes until I jumped up to warm the beans for him.

It was funny. But hubby didn't think so.
It could have been the intense pain and burning sensation in his head. Or, and this is more likely, that he is not nearly as easily amused as I.

So anyway... I'm planning on lots of giggly girl fun this week and I hope you can join us when we do our online radio show.

It's really easy to chat LIVE with us (chatting=typing on your computer). Just click on the link at 11 AM EST and the show will come through on your speakers.

Our first topic is "Starting a Praise and Coffee Night in Your Community"

Whether or not you want to do that...stop in and say hello on the chat.
It's super easy and we'd love to hear from you.

Oh did I mention that Melissa Mashburn from Florida and Ronel Sidney from San Diego will be here- in my house. In my living room ya'll!

It may be completely obnoxious with no real information given, but I'm pretty sure it will be fun!

Have a wonderful weekend.
You are loved!

What's UP?! I Miss You!

Before I even start with this crazy rambling post, I have to say Happy Birthday to Zoey, she is 1 year old today (she's the one in the tiara).

(Lauren, Zoey and Stephanie)

I can not believe that I haven't blogged in a month.
I apologize.
I just figure you're probably so tired of hearing from me on FB and Twitter that I don't want to bore you.

But I miss blogging. I think I'll make a New Year's resolution to start doing it more. I'll start next year.


So what have I been doing???

Well, I've been busy on the magazine. The next issue comes out in just days and I really hope you like it half as much and I like doing it!
If not, just tell me that you do and you'll make me very happy.

I'm also going to start doing more with our Praise and Coffee Blog Talk Radio Show.
Never heard of it?
That's because we've never done one.
(Don't worry, you're not out of the loop...there's no loop, just a circle. A circle of friends, and you're in it! I'm totally singing that song by Point of Grace)

But we are starting in two weeks when Melissa Mashburn (Praise and Coffee Nights co-Founder) and Ronel Sidney (Praise and Coffee Nights National Director) are here- in Michigan- sleeping in my guest room!

Here is the link to that show, you can chat with us when we're talking...it's really easy!!!

Please come chat with us, we'd love to hear from you too!


And tomorrow night...September 22, 2011 at 8pm EST (7pm CST) I will be a guest on The True Vine Online Radio Show. If you're not busy watching Friends (oh wait...that was years ago wasn't it?) then feel free to listen. I'd love that. I promised all my FB friends, so I will promise you too, I'll bake you a cake if you come.

And because you're my sweet blog sisters, I'll also come to all your kids football and soccer games.

All of them that fall on Monday night...that's when I'm not busy.

Here's the link:

And if you're not completely sick of me by now...here's my article at the Cafe'

Building Your Team with Unqualified People

Now it's YOUR turn, what are you doing?????
I want to know.

Happy Mother's Day

I hope you all have a wonderful day with family and friends.

The link for my blog talk radio interview is in the sidebar.
Now I need to let you know a couple of things.
1. Half way through the broadcast, my son (the comedian-who doesn't know I'm doing a live interview) sneaks up to my office window and scares the daylights out of me by making strange animal sounds. So that would explain why I completely lost my train of thought and the absolutely ridiculous order of the words I began to speak.

2. The other half of the radio show is an interview of an actress ~ I haven't listened to her portion yet...but I must say...never in a million-gazillion years did I imagine myself sharing a radio show with a woman who did the "V*gina Monologues"...if you don't know what that is...never mind.

Anywoooo, moving on....
I have a wonderful time at the Girls Night Out to cut domestic abuse. What a wonderful cause, I plan to have Praise and Coffee Nights more involved in helping them.

So, have a wonderful weekend. Give your babies (young and old) a hug!!
Much love,
Sue
