If You are Normal You only have About 21 Weeks to get it Right...

It’s hot. It’s rainy. The kids are getting restless as the time to go back to school approaches and so are the parents. Business owners have been playing phone tag around summer vacations and long weekends. In Florida, on August 23rd that will all change and everything will begin to get back to normal

Tales from my Yard…

Every so often I really am tempted to have someone just take care of the yard for me. (That does not mean that everyone reading this with a landscape business should call me.) Because, if someone else took care of it, I would miss out on all the important stuff I am supposed to learn through the experience of getting out there. For those who have received my newsletter in the past, you have read about

I do speak at my woman's business salon, which I moderate along with my daughter, which we started with a group of my friends who all have their own business. I speak to alot of people in the fashion industry but not what I would call public speaking. I spend my time designing and sewing clothes, keeping abreast of what is happening in the fashion world on line and by attending trade shows, dealing with printers and manufacturers, and networking for my local newsletter called russet's rave that goes out to subscribers every Thursday. I use to hate my hair growing up but then in 1970 I moved to SF, CA and found my perfect fit.

Hi Sara,

Having the insight to empower your client base as you do, I'd be curious to know your feelings and emotional response to my artworks... Excuse me Sara. Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jack Alexander, and yes, I am an artist.

Please accept this invitation to view my images. I have a WQ Mag page which, under the "About Me" profile, links to my websites. Let me know your response.

Till then becomes now.
Warm Regards,

Jack Alexander, Artist
