She Wants It All

by Jodi McLean You will see a lot of pink this month.   The Susan G. Komen marketing machine is relentlessly raising the awareness of Breast Cancer and keeping it top-of-mind; not only in October, but all year long.  I salute the SGK Marketing Team!  Tigresses!  I am constantly amazed at the passionate and know-no-limits, action-driven [...]

by Jodi McLean Yes, I know, I have really been on a sports kick with my posts.  I’m really not this one-track minded; it’s just that it’s Fall, and that’s when I catch the Football Fevah.  Plus, we are approaching the baseball post-season and I’m an avid baseball fan these days, so I’m riding that [...]

by Jodi McLean   First, let me start by saying that this is in no way a “Female Power” blog entry.   And it certainly isn’t a derogatory one about female attire choices and presentation of self.  Well, not entirely one or the other, but you’ll probably read a bit of both into this. Ines Sainz.  [...]

by Jodi McLean “Staycation” isn’t a new term.  I first started hearing it used in 2007, I believe, when people really started to hunker down and prepare for the long-haul with the downturned economy.  I have the luxury of living in one of the top vacation destination states in the U.S. so to take a Staycation [...]

by Jodi McLean Amy and I both have been taking a longer-than-expected blog break.  I am completely engrossed in my fantastic new job that I love, love, love and Amy is enjoying motherhood in the summer months. (Meaning, no babysitter named “school” to afford Amy some creative writing time.)  We have not abandoned SHE!  I have a [...]

by Jodi McLean Here is what I get to enjoy regularly, living on Florida’s west coast.  Thought I would share.  I found a cool spot where they are building up the beach, so the water kind of bounces back off of the breakers to make the criss-cross waves.   I’m actually sitting in the water shooting [...]

by Jodi McLean So, of course Key West was a blast with my four fun-lovin’ girlfriends.  I need to sleep for a week.  It was REALLY hot down there, so we spent a lot of daytime in the pool at the Eden House.  (Did you see us on the web cam?)   We walked a lot and [...]

by Jodi McLean Here are a couple of web links so you can spy on us from Key West.  We are staying at the Eden House and I anticipate that we will be spending a lot of time at the pool during the day. Eden House Web Cams Duval Street – Sloppy Joe’s (with live [...]

by Jodi McLean As an update to my employment saga, I am now a full-time employee!  In case you haven’t been following this blog, I lost my job in March.  I had been with the same company for 11 years.  I’ve been “gigging” for 3 months – taking part-time jobs, 1-3 day production gigs, etc. [...]

by Jodi McLean Another SHEva hits the big 4-0 this week, and we like to celebrate landmark birthdays with fun trips full of photo moments!  Stacie has chosen Key West as her 40th B-day destination, and we leave next week for an adventure-filled 5-day weekend.  We almost moved the trip to a different location due [...]
