Business Idea – Cloth Diapers

Cloth diapers have changed a lot since the days when our parents were carefully pinning them around our little bottoms.

While the cost of cloth diapers may seem steep up front, they pay for themselves after a period of time and do end up saving you money. They are also much better for the environment than disposable diapers are. Cloth diapers also present an … Continue reading

Do You Have A Road Map For Your Business?

Whether your home-based business involves a lot of driving or not, it is important that you have a road map. I’m not talking about the kind of road map that you keep in the car – you know, the one with all of the streets and highways on it. I’m talking about a different type of “road map”, a set of goals and guiding principles for your home-based business. Where can a home-based professional get that kind of a road map for his or her home-based business? These maps are not available at a store or online. They are created … Continue reading

Today I learned a little bit more about a type of home-based work that I had not given much thought to before – online teaching.

Shopping In Boston

My best friend just returned from a shopping trip (I mean business trip) to Boston. And being the wonderful, kind-hearted friend she is (hugs), she didn’t come back empty-handed. Instead, she returned with a bag full of goodies for my young daughter who happens to be a HUGE Curious George fan.

The city that’s crammed with historical monuments and must-see museums is also home to some incredible shopping opportunities. (I’m not talking about cookie-cutter mall stores—-Beantown is filled with one-of-a-kind … Continue reading
