Big softie that means business

Jan 29th, 2011 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

We’re really busy at work at the moment and under pressure with project deadlines. So imagine my surprise when I found two of our juniors working on baby shower invitations. At first I was very infuriated but then I softened when I saw the baby pictures and thought back to my sister’s baby […]



It’s the little things that bug me!

Jan 25th, 2011 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

Earlier this evening I was watching a medical drama and one of the characters was being brought into an operating theatre to be with his partner who was having a caesarean section. Being as pedantic as I am, I couldn’t help but notice that they let the character into the theatre without any overshoes […]

A Horse is for sure mans best friend. Check with my friend Brian Curran Cournane and he will acknowledge that Horses are as much mans friend than anyone else on the planet!

My friend sent me on a link to Junior Equestrian yesterday, he knows I have a little girl mad about horses and sure enough its a great site for horse stuff for kids ! Now to try and stop my 5 year old from buying somethere there is difficult, but I dont think it […]



Hopefully I’ll stick to my resolutions this year

Jan 16th, 2011 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

New year, new me – it’s the same every January! And every January I swear that this year will be different. So I decided enough was enough this January and I decided to stock up on multivitamins and I decided to check out options on line. It couldn’t have been easier! I […]



It’s just one thing after another

Jan 16th, 2011 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

Earlier today I had an accident in the kitchen and I damaged a single glass mosaic tile. I was lucky it was only the one and it’s not too noticeable! Normally I’m not a clutz but today it’s been one thing after another. It all started badly this morning when I slept […]



Recession doesn’t have to mean negativity

Jan 8th, 2011 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

It’s a buyers market out there at the moment. There are sales galore and bargains to be had. And I discovered today, there are discount laptop computers for sale in the office next door to ours! I’m not sure if they are reconditioned laptops or what but my nephew is starting college […]



Accessorising your accessory!

Jan 8th, 2011 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

Having upgraded my cell phone to an iphone late last year, I’m amazed to discover all the Iphone accessories and applications that there are. And I’m starting to wonder how I survived so long with a regular cell phone. I’m not so sure I could survive without my iphone now! It’s like […]



Open sesame – if only it were that easy

Jan 4th, 2011 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

I’ve never had much luck with garage door openers. I either lose the remote control or I damage it or something. Last year I managed to drop it down the garbage disposal unit – I still don’t know quite how I managed that! My brother is as clumsy as I am and […]



The ghost of Christmas present will come back to haunt her

Jan 4th, 2011 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

My brother in law is a nurse in a local hospital and my practical and very unromantic sister bought him nursing scrubs for Christmas! I think I’d rather have opened no present at all from my significant other, than open that! Her reasoning was that he needed them, fair enough, but surely there was […]
