I was watching the Mel Gibson movie Signs the other night. If you've never seen it before, I'll give you a brief recap. Mel Gibson is a preacher who lives on a farm. And all of a sudden, a crop circle shows up in the middle of one of his fields.
As it turns out, the crop circles, which are showing up all over the world, are actually landing directions for the aliens that are about to invade. It's a pretty good movie until the end, when we find out...nope, better not spoil it for you.
Anyway, this struck me as funny.

I read an article yesterday at The Simple Dollar that really got me thinking. Basically, the author of The Difference Between a Job and a Career explains the difference between a job you work to put food on the table and a career. Of course, I knew there was a difference. But I never really thought about what the difference might mean in terms of emotional investment.
How much emotional energy should you invest in something if it's only a way to make money, but has no possibility of advancement? Sure, you should do the job you're getting paid to do, and to the best of your ability. But should you let it stress you out? Should you be saving that kind of energy for more important endeavors - your family, for instance?
I found the article gave me a new perspective on my work. Read it and let me know what you think.

Okay. So I'm not a big fan of Dr. Laura and her radio show. She's a little too preachy and abrasive for my taste. But I am a big fan of this article I found on her website. It's The 20 Best Home Businesses for Moms that You Can Start for Under $100 by Priscilla Huff.
There are some great additional resources (books and websites) listed under each business idea. And there are different categories also: business services, creative businesses, food related businesses, green businesses, home services, and personal services. As I've frequently said here on this site, services are big and will only grow in the future as the U.S. population ages. Check it out!

One of my daughters and I made a trip to the mall today. I remembered that last year, we waited too late to shop for back-to-school clothes. We went a few weeks into July, and the stores were already putting out fall clothes. All the great summer sales were nearly over, and it was slim pickings.
So this year, we went early. We walked into a store today just as they marked summer clothes down as much as 70%. She buys her own clothes now, for the most part, since she's a working girl. And she got 8 shirts, a pair of shorts, a dress, and a nice bag for right at $100. Not bad at all.
She'll probably sock most of it away 'til late summer, so she'll have some new duds to wear back to school. If your kids are going to need some hot weather clothes for back-to-school - it stays hot around here 'til the end of October - then get over to the mall now, before it's too late.

Here's a great recipe for your Fourth of July picnic or barbecue!
Ingredients:
24 Oreo cookies, crushed
2 tbsp. butter, softened

3 eggs, beaten
1 tsp. vanilla extract
2 1-oz. squares semisweet chocolate
Directions:
I found out yesterday I'm going to get an actual vacation this year. We're going to the beach in August, and I'm really excited. I've felt really burnt out lately. My kids tell me I'm repeating things, and I'm sure it's true.
I've also noticed that when I don't get enough relaxation and me-time, I get into more arguments with my teens. I'm more easily drawn into petty battles, which is definitely something to avoid, because with adolescents, you really have to pick your battles.
And then this morning, I ran across this enlightening article in the Raleigh News and Observer by Susan Calahan, Anne Nolan, and Katrin Schumann entitled Mothers Need Time-Outs Too. It noted that according to an ABC News poll, 52% of mothers say they "suffer from parental guilt - mostly because they worry they don't spend enough time with their kids."
While guilt's not my problem - my kids probably get too much Mom - I think the article makes a great point relevant for all of us: even moms need to take a time-out from time-to-time. Read the article and let me know what you think. Do you regularly schedule time for yourself? Or, like me, do your desires and needs frequently get lost in the shuffle of raising kids?
