Hi Kids,

I woke up to a lot of snow this morning. Living here in Ohio you really never know what to expect. That can be a good or a bad thing if you don't like surprises. There was no snow in sight when I fell asleep last night but"Old Man Winter" snuck in and delivered a few inches of fun. Aren't we lucky? I guess if you like to ski this would be a good thing but since I don't and feel cold when the temperature goes below 60 degrees, it's not.

Did you realize this is the very first issue in the brand new year? 2005, where did that come from? Want to hear how I started out the new year? On New Year's Eve I started feeling ill, sore throat and just a general feeling of crap. I spent New Year's Eve night in bed watching TV if that gives you any idea of the partying mood I was in.

The next day I realized I had the deadly disease known as "the flu". The next 6 days were spent in bed feeling like death was soon to befall me. OK, maybe that's a bit theatrical but I still felt terrible. There was a good side to the whole experience. My "Significnt Other" Jim, took pretty good care of me making tea and meals as needed. Now he's no replacement for my Mother but since she seems to be unavailable to me now as a grown up I guess I had to make due.

Yesterday was my first day of feeling 85% normal and I actually ventured out of the house. I did what any woman would do who had spent the last 6 days flat on her back, went shopping. There are some great clearance deals to be had at the stores right now and I always find shopping so therapeutic. I think it was just what the Doctor ordered. Granted I'm still not 100% a bit congested and a little tired still but I'm vertical and that's a good thing.

Since my PC is right next to my bed (due to the fire we had, my real office is still unavailable) I did get caught up on some paperwork and actually finished an ebook that I will be offering for sale soon. I'm having it edited right now so you don't think I can't spell. Anyone who writes needs an editor and I'm lucky to have one. She makes me look good and looking good in print is so important. You wouldn't belive how the typo and Grammar Police come out to attack you when they find an error. I think these people took English class a little too seriously. Prozac may be in order.

Anyway, to create the ebook combed thru past issues of this ezine for the very best marketing resources and compiled them into a 60 page ebook. This is something anyone who markets online will want to keep close by. It's going to be inexpensive, under 20.00 in PDF format and I'll let you know when you can get a copy for yourself.
