Must run this morning because today is ArtWorks at 7th Gallery’s big anniversary bash. 40 minutes there, set up artwork outside, stay all day, hope it doesn’t rain, take it all down and come home.  Maybe go back out to friend’s husband’s band playing locally (big maybe at this point).

There’s a big buzz all over the net this morning about Google Trends – a new service of Google that will give you a pretty graph of key search words and what the trend is in their use.  This is great for bloggers trying to drive business to their sites.  I had to create a google account and haven’t gotten my acknowledgement email back yet, so for me this will have to wait.  If you put  "Google Trends" into your search engine, you will come up with everyone who’s writing on it.  Since I don’t have time to do that research this a.m., you might want to do it yourself.  I plan to look more into it, but probably, given my schedule (Mother’s Day, off to look at houses in Catonsville on Monday) won’t get to it until Tuesday – and today is the day it’s hot.  So if you’re trying to keep up, go have a look and then come back and leave a message here about what you think (and tell me how you got to it because I wasn’t having any intuitive luck in my rush this a.m.)

Speaking of google, one of my regular searchs (my name, Tammy Vitale) turned up news in a local paper.  I had done the interviews but wasn’t sure when it might be printed.  I didn’t even know the local had gone web based!  So Google is in the news all the way around this morning.  The article is on the networking group to which I belong, Women in Harmony.  It has a picture of the St Mary’s group meeting where I met the SBDC person I’m working with on a marketing plan.

I need a great day today so everyone keep your fingers crossed for me.  I need some "keeping on" energy.

Thought for the day:  (from a "forward" moving around the web, several times now)

How women see ourselves:

Age 40:  Looks at herself and sees:  too fat/too thin, too short/too tall, too straight/too curly – but says, "At least I’m clean" and goes out anyway.

Age 50:  Looks at herself and sees:  "I am" and goes wherever she wants to.

Age 60:  Looks at herself and reminds herself of all the people who can’t even see themselves in the mirror anymore…goes out and conquers the world.

Watch out world, 60’s coming.
