Blog Entry 3 of 33 Entrepreneur Vs. Mommyworld
Who Am I? Well, why have I erased what I started five times already? I guess because I am still searching for who I am. Yes, I am a mother of three wonderful, beautiful, loving, never have gotten in trouble in their lives kind of boys. (At least not within the last few minutes...right, they are at school.) Who else am I? I am also a NEW ENTREPRENEUR. Within the last year, I have started three new business. Yippee! Each business is very different and separate from the other, but they are all interesting in their own right. Let's look at the facts and see where I fit the best. To start this blog, I had to cut myself out from the middle of the three little toe heads. Just this morning, I made an appointment to have my taxes done (payment = a kidney). When dropping the boys off at school, I got cut off by a rude driver and I flipped him off in the school line (personal note, never do that, his child is probably in your child's class), I made a wholesale order for business goods without having to ask for help (o.k. only three calls, but who's counting??), I washed a load of jeans and only one chapstick was found in the dryer this time (who in the world knows how to get out that stain?), successfully found some business receipts and only one had a picture of Yoda on the back, and most importantly remembered to say this morning, "I love my life!" I mean, being who I am is just great....now to go figure out who that is....

Waffles?
Contributed by: Sara Crowe   on 1/29/2008

This morning we were running around like the usual maniacs trying to get ready for the day. I asked my older son to ask one of the twins if he wanted butter, jelly, or honey on his toast.

Older son runs upstairs, "Do you want butter, jelly, or honey on your toast?"

Younger son, "I will take a waffle."

Older son runs back to me, "He says he would like a waffle."

Me, "Go and ask him again."

Older (getting a little put off...runs back upstairs) again, "Butter, jelly, or honey."

Younger, "Waffle."

Older....back downstairs....this goes on at least three more times. At this point, my older son is exasperated, my younger son just wants a waffle (he knows we haven't had waffles for days), and me, I'm thinking about business.

What happened to asking for what I wanted, even though I know it might be impossible?

What would it look like if I called up an impossibly famous, don't know them personally at all and have absolutely no ties to them, hard to get ahold of someone and asked them if I could plan their next event for them?

How about calling up Joel Comm (internet savy, billiantly wonderful, dynamic, adsense guru) and asked him to look at my Web site?

I might just ask for a meeting with Oprah.

Waffles....I think I will start asking for them. You?

This is what I would ask Joel....hey Joel when could I buy you a vente Mocha with one shot, iced, caramel sauce on the top and bottom, no whip, light on the ice, and 7 pumps of peppermint syrup? If you like just plain coffee, that would work too. Sara

Hey Sara, So what would you ask Joel Comm if you had his attention. You'd probably get a response after all that flattery. ;-) Joel P.S. - can't help you with Oprah, but do let me know if you get a hold of her. I'd like to speak with her as well!
