Cincinnati Blogger Girlfriends – Have you met yet?

April 3, 2010 – 12:28 pm

It’s Saturday and time for a Cincinnati girlfriend introduction blog.

Why? Well, it’s just something girlfriends like to do, right? We love to brag on our friends and let them know how special they are to us. And, even if you’re not in Cincinnati, these women just may inspire you!

First, I’m fortunate to be part of LOL – ‘Locals on Living.’ This group of local bloggers was brought together by Cincinnati Enquirer and has a special event coming. (That’s all the teaser you get, but I’d save the date of May 15th if I were you!)

So, here are some local girlfriends and bloggers who you need to know, read, follow and fan: Read More »

Kroger has a new Fuel Savings program – did you know?

Last week Kroger invited me and a few of my fella girlfriend bloggers to the Hyde Park Kroger to find out more about their new fuel savings program. It was great to hear about it but also really great to see/meet some women bloggers in the Cincinnati area, like: Read More »

Daily Inspiration: Have an Adventure, Girlfriend!

January 25, 2010 – 2:23 pm

“A true friend freely, advises justly, assists readily, adventures boldly, takes all patiently, defends courageously and continues a friend unchangeably.”

William Penn

When was the last time you went on an adventure? Or you walked though an area of town that was unfamiliar? How often do you get out of your comfort zone and explore boldly?

Recognizing that we don’t know our city as well as we should, my husband and I have committed to having breakfast in each of Cincinnati’s 52 neighborhoods in 2010. (Which is not an easy challenge! Many neighborhoods don’t even have restaurants.) Read More »

Girlfriend Thoughts on The Freedom Center: Voices

January 19, 2010 – 3:35 pm

One thing you’ll notice at women’s blogger conferences, is the impressive decibel level.

This isn’t a statement on women’s behavior, our verbal proficiency or the often hard, reverberating surfaces found in conference settings. It’s because you have a gathering of women with voices and the blogs to prove it. Voices that share our daily lives with each other. Voices that years ago had no depository for expression. Voices that decades ago were silenced and unwelcomed. Now, dang it!, we’ve got voices and we’re using them! Read More »

Jobs, women and stress

January 9, 2010 – 11:52 am

My girlfriend’s husband has been out of work for over a year.

He’s explored options, networked, interviewed and all the things that you’re supposed to do when you’re looking for a job. It’s a stressful situation – but not just for him.

Research shows that “children look to women for tending, men look to women for tending and women look to women for tending.” Read More »

Cincy Events for Women (okay, and guys!)

December 12, 2009 – 12:02 pm

One of the great gifts of the holidays is the opportunity to see and share with friends.

I love how the weeks, months or years of not spending time together just melt away as we share life and time together with friends. It’s a wonderful time of year to reconnect and celebrate Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanza or just the true blessing of friends.

There are a few events upcoming in Cincinnati for girl and guy friends that offer fun opportunities to meet new and old friends and maybe even get some ’stuff!’: Read More »

Cincy Saturday – Girlfriend Introductions

November 21, 2009 – 6:28 am

My very good friend Judi (on the left in this photo) asked me to put a meeting on my calendar. Always one to forego meetings if not completely necessary and if at all possible, I hesitated – and she knew it. She wasn’t taking ‘no’ for an answer, so, trusting my girlfriend, I went.

She had assembled a group of six or eight women to just meet each other. Women she respects, enjoys and thought would enjoy meeting each other. Read More »

Cincinnati “Friend in Need” Fundraiser / Tool Sale

November 4, 2009 – 5:15 pm

Buy a tool! Help a friend in need!

I love the name of his business. He called it “Sawdust Therapy.” (I’m sure guys can relate to that!) For years he installed doors, built kids’ furniture, and repaired all kinds of wooden ’stuff.’ He hired men who might need a break and helped them prosper in skills and confidence. He is a good guy.
