Happy, Happy, Happy!

Hi Friends!

This weekend was HOT! Mother Nature was giving us a glimpse into the coming months with temps in the triple digits. Was it hot where you are, too?

So, lots of good news. Dave made it home safe and sound. Mason was so happy! I was pretty happy myself, but I think Mason was beginning to question if Dave was really coming home. Sunday was nice, we did some errands, went to the Auburn Spring Home Show and then came home and just hung out. Mason played in the sprinklers while Dave read, and I fell asleep on the couch in the comfort of the air conditioned house!

On a different subject, we have another little invention to share with you. Julie came up with this one, and she and I spent all day Friday manufacturing it. It's called the bluetooth bungee. It's a simple little device to keep your expensive bluetooth attached to your body, your purse, your gym bag, your car visor, you name it. We made some to sell and get them out in the world, and the next step is to license it to someone like Motorola. In California, we have a hands-free law taking effect on July 1 of this year. For Q&A go to the DMV web site at (http://www.dmv.ca.gov/cellularphonelaws/index.htm). You can be pulled over for holding your phone to your ear while driving your car. You can go to the blog site to see pictures. We're selling them for $7.00 each or three for $20.00. We figure by the time they're in stores, they'll be selling for a minimum of $14.99 each.

Let me know what you think and the web site will be up later this week. The address is www.bluetoothbungee.com. If you want one before they are all the rage, e-mail me back and I'll get on in the mail to you!

Have a great week and get inspired! Invent something, take that class you've always wanted to take, or just make an extra few minutes for yourself. Whatever it is, take the action
and S-T-A-R-T!

Overflowing with opportunities

Does it seem to you that all the best opportunities have already been claimed? Actually, nothing could be further from the truth.

There are more valuable opportunities available to you today than there have ever been before. And they grow more numerous with each passing moment.

Each opportunity that is followed and fulfilled gives birth to even more opportunities. Not only are the best opportunities not running out, they are indeed growing in number and value.

Opportunities arise from disappointment as well as from success. As knowledge and wisdom and experience grow, so too do opportunities grow.

Great challenges bring about great opportunities. Each breakthrough sets the stage for even greater breakthroughs, leaving a trail of opportunities in their wake.

Life is truly overflowing with opportunities of all different kinds that apply to every aspect of life. Open up to the very best opportunities, and joyfully work to reap the value that can be yours.
