My current view
Trying to be ok with the fact that this is my current view.
How did I get here? – Doesn’t matter. I know I won’t always be here.
I would rather be sitting in a Japanese Zen Garden in a city with less than 50% humidity. But what I want also doesn’t matter.
It just is.

Bye Chevy Malibu!
Today I had to turn in my Malibu from Imelda Bettinger on Vimeo.
Bye Chevy Malibu! Thanks to The Houston Chevy Dealers for giving me the opportunity to try out the all new Chevy Malibu for 4 weeks. I’m going to miss you! Bye XM Radio! Bye remote start! Bye OnStar Turn by Turn Navigation! Bye Blutooth! Bye iPhone charger! Bye cute, peppy car! It’s been fun!
Chevy Girlfriend Getaway Kickoff
March 17th… CBS Radio.. My new car!
It’s not every day you are chosen to drive a brand new car for a month with super cool activities planned around it but it happened to me and four other Houston women!
I’m so excited to be apart of the Chevy Girlfriend Getaway Houston program where I get the opportunity to drive a Chevy Malibu for a month and blog about my experiences!
I got to pick up my car, meet the other four women, have lunch provided by Panera and take photos on the roof of the building!
My new car is provided by Classic Chevrolet of Sugar Land. I’m here pictured with Joe Machacek and Howie Bently. They gave me a run down of all the cars features and bells and whistles like OnStar and the fabulous XM Radio! Oh and how could I forget, Bluetooth so I can talk on my iPhone hands free!
I’ll be posting videos about my many outings in the very roomy and zippy car. If you want to see how awesome it is for yourself, head to your nearest Chevy dealership and take a test drive, and they’ll give you a FREE one hour massage from Massage Envy!
Welcome to the adventure!
Disclosure: The “Girls On The Go” Campaign is being sponsored by the Houston Area Chevy Dealers. They have given me a 2010 Chevy Malibu to test drive for one month and blog about my experiences while using this vehicle. Girlfriend Getaway has given me some fun projects to do and will be providing me with gift cards to accomplish these tasks.
Best of 2009: Place
I am participating in Gwen Bell’s The Best of 2009 Blog Challenge. December 10th, Gwen asks what was the best place of 2009? A coffee shop? A pub? A retreat center? A cubicle? A nook?
The best place I visited in 2009? Was it Estes Park, CO? I was there for the first time this past July and it was just beautiful. The whole Rocky Mountain National Park, and Colorado for that matter, just moved me. But no, that wasn’t it.
Was it one of my favorite local hangouts, Coffee Groundz? JR Cohen sure makes this coffee shop & full service bar inviting to the entire Houston tech community and beyond. I first discovered the shop soon after relocating my office to downtown Houston. I began following them on twitter in August 2008 and did my best to help spread the word about this fantastic place that even sells gelato! I can go anytime and run into a friend or meet a new one; its the closest thing to Cheers I’ve found. But no, that’s not it either.
My best place of 2009 was the Women’s Hospital of Texas! Yep! It sure was! They serve excellent catfish, but its my top choice for 2009 because that’s where I met my son, Jack! Welcome to the family buddy!
2009 Houston YMCA Jingle Bell Run Registration starts today
The 2009 Houston YMCA Jingle Bell Run Registration starts today, August 6th, 2009, even though the website still has 2008 information. Since I will just barely have Jack, I will just be doing the 3K fun walk. I took Mason on that one two years ago so may make it a family event this year too!
The run is Dec. 13th, 2009.
