Take Time to Savor the Wontons!

By Christy Eichers · Comments (0)
Thursday, September 20th, 2012

Received this card tonight at dinner… and the inside read:” Hope You Have A Well Balanced Birthday!” Before I even blew out the candles, this birthday wish came true!

Today I turned 44. Nothing special about turning 44… just another birthday. Leading up to this anniversary of my birth, I had many friends inquire as to how I would be spending my day. I hadn’t even thought about it. My girlfriends were going to take me to dinner… that was the only thing I had on the agenda.

At the last minute, my “boss” graciously gave me the day off. For those of you who do not know me, I work for myself. I made myself a grand breakfast with scrambled eggs, peppers, mushrooms, and onions.  AND, I even buttered my whole wheat toast. Well, let’s not stop there, I uncorked a Read More→

Growing up I was not an athlete. In fact, I remember as a girl, you were either a “band geek”  playing an instrument, or you were athletic and played a sport. There weren’t too many girls that did both. (By the way, I’m glad that has changed as my 17 year-old daughter both plays sports and is musical.) When I met my friend Meghan about 10 years ago, she asked me one day to go running with her and I laughed…hard! I was quite sure I Read More→

We signed up to ride in the MS 150 bike ride for Team Finnegans. Forty percent of the 4,300 registered riders were female. And another statistic fired me up even more, multiple sclerosis is significantly more common (at least 2-3 times more common) in women than men.

As I trained for the longest bike ride of my life I was happy to Read More→

Friday, February 10th, 2012

When I debuted a presentation titled, “The Pink Tambourine Club,” some of the audience members arrived a bit apprehensive. While the #1 fear in America may be public speaking, I think we, as women, have a close second fear.
