Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday
This evening I will be teaching another FREE blogging class sponsored by The Money School of Delaware. “Small Business Blogging” will be held at the Bear Public Library beginning at 6:30 pm, and I hope to see a few of my Delawarean followers.
I was going through some of my unpublished pictures from the summer and came across this outfit which I am tagging “Wild Wednesday“. I love wearing animal prints, and I have shoes, scarves, sweaters, pants and purses in both Leopard and Zebra but Leopard has always been my favorite.
How about you, do you have a favorite “wild” animal print?
I can’t remember where I purchased this asymmetrical top but most likely it was at either at Marshalls, Ross or TJ Maxx.
I do however, remember getting these sandals from Ross.
When not wearing a skirt or dress I prefer wearing my Gauchos and you know that I’ve had these for awhile, do they even sell them anymore?
What do you think – does this sleeveless top remind you of The Flintstones?
Linking up today with Transatlantic Blonde
Have a Yabba Dabba Do Day – Smooches!

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday.
Remember when I told you about the opportunity that was presented to me by The Money School of Delaware to teach a Blogging 101 class? Well, it happened…I did it, I taught a class last Wednesday at the Bear Public Library.
In 1983, I received my BS Degree in Elementary Education from Delaware State (College), but only taught 1 year of 3rd grade before leaving to work in Corporate America. This was the first time since then of being back in a classroom…teaching…doing something that I’ve always loved to do.
I was on pins and needles for months in anticipation, reading everything I could online and from fellow bloggers as well as from the “Blogging for Dummies” book. I was super excited to share what I had learned and prayed that all would go well.
The class was full with 20 people registered, however, there were several no-shows but the walk-ins took their place making it a total of 18 participants. “Not a bad turn out for a new class” stated the Library’s scheduler, which made me feel good.
I was a little nervous only because of the traffic delays that I had encountered trying to get there before the start time and upon arrival there were already 3 people seated. After setting up the laptop with my PowerPoint presentation, I downloaded some Smooth Jazz from Pandora and waited until the start time of 6:30 pm. to begin.
Do you know that saying, “I hit it out of the park”? Well I did…it was an awesome evening, a lively and engaging group of woman ranging in ages from 15 to 60, mothers with daughters and small business owners all eager to learn the basics of blogging. They asked great questions, participated by sharing stories and overall made this a memorable experience for which I’ll forever be grateful.
It was my grandmother’s wish that I would someday return to teaching, so I know she was looking down on me with a smile. Next month I’ll be presenting “Blogging for Small Businesses”, so it’s off to read and learn more, create a new presentation, download more Smooth Jazz and prepare to meet some new students.
Have you ever had an opportunity to go back and do something that you truly loved to do?
