We've been hearing those words a lot lately ... it's the theme for the 4th Annual Work-Life Balance Educational Conference coming up April 23rd at Signature Grand. What a perfect way to describe the day - after last year's Day of Balance, I did feel Inspired, Empowered and Connected.
There are still some seats left to join LITE FM, keynote speaker Naomi Judd, and about 1500 businesswomen for a day that's all about you.
Naomi is an awesome speaker - I saw her at one of our Women's Club Luncheons a few years ago and I still have the page of notes I took with all the wisdom she had to share from living a challenging life. To look at her now, it's hard to imagine that she was a victim of domestic abuse, a single mom, a Hepatitis C survivor - she overcame it all; so it seems fitting that she'll be our guest on Be You Radio this Sunday morning at 6 on LITE FM to talk about Being Empowered.

FCATS for dogs
I'm not sure what criteria they used, but experts have determined the smartest and dumbest breeds of dogs. Where does your poodle, retriever, lab, pekingese, etc. fall in the list?
Have a look.
Regardless of IQ, they're all awfully cute!
By the way, if you disagree with the results and want to prove them wrong, CBS is looking for America's Most Talented Dogs for a reality series.

Idol Gives Back 2008
Wednesday night, American Idol does it again - bringing together a stellar lineup of celebrities to help raise money for children's charities around the world. This year's Idol Gives Back will feature guest appearances from former Idol contestants & winners including Fantasia, Chris Daughtry, Carrie Underwood and Elliot Yamin; along with Brad Pitt, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Robin Williams, Billy Crystal and Gloria Estefan. And more.
Money raised from the event will benefit The Children's Defense Fund, Children's Health Fund, The Global Fund, Make It Right, Malaria No More and Save the Children.
The show starts earlier than usual - 7:30 p.m. Oh, and the elimination this week will be pushed to Thursday.

Monday vs. Friday
Bryan and I were debating which day is better to have off for a three-day weekend - Monday or Friday. Fridays are great because the weekend comes faster, but I always feel like I should DO something when my weekend starts on Friday. Mondays are also great - you get back to work on Tuesday, and it feels like the work week is already half over!
Ultimately, we decided that ANY day is great for a day off!
What I didn't know is that Wikipedia actually has an entry for three-day weekend, with terms used around the world to describe the long weekend (or "oval", as they say in Norway). It was also enlightening to see how many other cultures go straight to the FOUR-day weekend.
Couldn't we at least have a daily siesta?
