A Mom’s Day in 2 Minutes - The Musical

This is such a great video - I couldn’t help but to share it with all the Moms (and Dads will appreciate it too) out there. Anita Renfroe packs all the things we Moms say in a normal 24 hour day in to a musical 2 minute sketch.

I’ve Gone Pink for October

Pink for October 2007October is Breast Cancer awareness month and in a show of support I have changed the look of Casual Keystrokes for the month - yep, it’s pink - very pink. (If you are reading this via RSS - come check it out.)

I am not alone, though. There are already some sites that have gone pink (Brian Gardner, Standards for Life) and if you are looking for inspiration and themes you can find some at:

If your site is going Pink for October, let us know! We’d love to see it.

What else can I do?

Gal to Gal Virtual WalkCome help raise funds for Stage IV Breast Cancer patients and survivors in the Gal to Gal Virtual Walk. It is very cool, and you can design your own gal or angel to walk from Boston to San Francisco during the month of October.

I’m walking - when you login you can find your friends - I’m Char P. If you join in, come find me.

Striking the Balance between Work and Family

Laura at Work from Home Momma wrote a great reminder post this week about the importance of making time for family when you work from home. I know this is something I struggle with constantly. I began working from home so I could spend more time with my family, however, as my business has grown I definitely have days and sometimes weeks where business takes priority.
