Wow, It’s time to do this again?? I completely forgot until someone linked here saying they got the idea of a “weekend” recap from me.  EEKKK!!

Anyway, this week honestly has been quite the “blur”.  I started out the week in hopes of having baby #3 quickly. However, as I sit here with him still “baking” as some say, you can tell that didn’t happen.  Hopefully tomorrow is the ever fateful day.  I am going to the doctor at 10 am on Monday, pray he puts me in for induction.

So, recapping this week. Monday was the doctor’s appointment. I had dilated but since then nothing.  Tuesday and Wednesday my mom and grandmother came over to help out with the kids and house. Praise God that was a blessing.  Thursday I had to go it alone, and Friday Greg ended up off because his state car went capoot.  We went out to lunch and out for supper, yay no cooking and had a good time spending time together.

I made mammoth to do lists this week in an effort to “stay busy”, which I pretty much did working online on my websites and installing two Wordpress blogs and doing customizations for two clients.  This is sort of one of those “hobbies” I get paid to do.  I know it’s not something I really have “time” for, but it’s relaxing and fun to me, I know I’m wierd, a nerd, go read yesterday’s post you’ll understand why I say that.  But seriously, I learned Wordpress over time and I have come to love tweaking and playing with it.  Fortunately for me there are people out there who hate doing this sort of thing but want a website or blog set up so they pay me.  Win-win!

So, between all that and doing ministry related stuff, I booked a speaking engagement this week and worked out the details on that, I’ll be in Senatobia, MS speaking to Moms and daughters at First United Methodist Church on Saturday, August 23.  Excited! I have stayed busy this week, ever so impatiently waiting for baby Brady to make his arrival.  I am beyond ready and hope upon hope tomorrow is the BIG day!

It is truly amazing what a little focus will do. I was convicted at She Speaks a couple of weeks ago now that I needed to focus on what God had called me to. I have also been convicted this week that I must also focus on Him. I have said many times and will say again that if I do not start my days out focused on Him, I tend to get less done, feel less productive and basically well, have an off day.

So, in more ways that one focus is important in my life. This week I have gotten a great deal of work done on my websites, I’ve had some awesome coaching done, and I have re-thought my plan for the business and work that I do from home. It is all off to a great start which I am so proud of, and happy to be back in “focus”.

What’s funny is I’ve been tweeting a lot about this and I have begun to notice a trend. There are a good many of us WAHMs who are “refocusing”. I think that’s pretty neat, so if you’re refocusing or think you need to share with me what your plan is. I’d love to hear about it!

Carrollton, MS – What happens when a writer’s plate gets full and she still wants to offer the same quality articles written in her style allowing her clients to receive the same-targeted service? She recruits a team of like-minded writers with a similar writing style and commitment to quality to work alongside her in providing exceptional service for her clients.

This is precisely what Alyssa Avant, with A Writer for Hire is doing. She has recruited a team of writers to assist her in producing the same well written, high quality, fast turn-around articles and other content for online business owners and entrepreneurs. Effective immediately, A Writer for Hire, is no longer just one writer, but a team of writers committed to providing clients with articles and other content that is “on target, on time, every time”.

A Writer for Hire is the ghostwriting business of momprenuer Alyssa Avant. She began this business to help support herself, to contribute to her family budget while she pursued her passion to minister to teen and tween girls. The business has grown successfully and she is excited about this new expansion.

Alyssa’s clients are from a variety of fields, but trust her to provide quality articles and content for their website and other materials in their businesses.

Shannon Cherry of Be Heard Solutions had this to say about working with Alyssa, “When I thought about outsourcing some of my writing, I was a bit unsure. After all, I am a professional writer and I was worried that no one would capture my voice. Alyssa Avant not only nailed the content I needed, but she was fast, accurate - and very, very good. And she sounded just like me. I’ve found my writing clone and couldn’t be happier.”

“I plan to ensure that the writer’s I hire provide the same quality articles that I have become known for, my clients will not be disappointed.” says Alyssa, who will now be known as the Head Writer at A Writer for Hire.

For those looking to hire a writer to provide content for their website or business you may contact Alyssa and her team of writers at A Writer for Hire (http://awriterforhire.com) or via email at alyssaavant @ gmail.com(no spaces)

I can’t believe I forgot to share this. As of April 1, I am officially a Mom Masterminds Graduate. I can’t even begin to tell you how much this mastermind group of phenomenal women has helped me. From the commander in chief herself, Kelly McCausey, to the tech-mama, Lynette Chandler, to the many other inspiring ladies who make up this group, whom I would try to name but I am afraid of leaving someone out, so I won’t. They have not only inspired me, but they have also backed me up, pushed me forward, challenged me and helped me to not only grow my ministry, but to also create a thriving writing business that I have enjoyed for the past 6 months. Many of the ladies who are a part of Mom Masterminds are my clients and great clients they are!

More than that and even better than that, many of the ladies are now also my friends and I am honored to call them “friend”. I truly feel blessed to be a part of this group of ladies and hope to enjoy the vast amount of resources available there as well as share in the camaraderie for many years to come.
