They&#8217;re brilliant! Business cards are perfect for spreading your name around town, keeping it in front of potential customers, and (most importantly) for making a great first impression.  If someone has business cards printed up &#8211; and they look chic &#8211; you know they&#8217;re serious about what they do.  They&#8217;re in it to win it!</p>
<p>With VistaPrint, you can design and customize your own business cards with your very own logo or photo, or you can choose from a really wide array of templates tailored to your industry or niche. What&#8217;s more, if you&#8217;re searching for a sleek, professional look, you can customize your business cards by selecting a matte or glossy finish, foil-accents and more. Get an electronic business card as well, and jazz up your email signature. These are verrrry impressive.</p>
<p>Like all VistaPrint products, you can create your business cards in minutes and receive them in as few as 3 days.</p>
<p>VistaPrint also has postcards, sticky notes, letterheads, presentation folders, mouse pads, hats, window decals, lawn signs, photo cards, note cards, return <a href="http://www.superiorlabels.com">address labels</a>, stamps, announcements, invitations, t-shirts (yes, t-shirts), and more.  So, if you&#8217;re looking to get personal, you can get everything you need in one place &#8211; all with the same logo and design and all delivered to you in a matter of days.</p>
<p>Start with <a onmouseover="window.status='http://www.vistaprint.com/vp/gateway.asp?S=3423758781';return true;" onmouseout="window.status=' ';return true;" href="http://www.dpbolvw.net/2i108p-85-7NPWVQQXUNPOTVRRRQ?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.vistaprint.com%2Fvp%2Fgateway.asp%3FS%3D0402421013&amp;cjsku=88" target="_blank">Business Cards</a><img src="http://www.awltovhc.com/8998jy1qwuFHONIIPMFHGLNJJJI" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" /> and simply build from there.   New year&#8230; time to buckle down and get completely serious!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>My entire state (Kentucky) is in a state of emergency because of a deadly, power sucking winter storm.  Our house (and most of our town) has been without power since Tuesday.  This is Saturday, and we&#8217;re hoping and praying to have power by Monday.  Of course, even then &#8211; I don&#8217;t know when we&#8217;ll get our internet connection back. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m at one of the few places in town with power &#8211; my husband&#8217;s office. They&#8217;ve been kind enough to let us sleep here each night.  Imagine an office freak surrounded by office supplies all night. Sweet!  You may not hear from me for a few more days, but I wanted to let you know I was still alive, kicking, and surrounded by paper clips, post it notes, staplers, pens, etc.</p>
<p>Even winter clouds have silver linings.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know when we&#8217;ll get our power back, but I won&#8217;t be able to approve or reply comments for the time being. Spammers, behave!</p>
<p>Be back with you when I thaw out.</p>
<p>Take care, stay warm.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>We get pretty busy, don&#8217;t we?  Like big, less hairy versions of hamsters in wheels &#8211; we just keep moving and moving and moving.  We only <em>think</em> we know what&#8217;s really important and what really matters.  Making money, spending money, trips to the mechanic, broken appliances, tempermental computers, Google rankings, nasty blog comments, etc. etc.    Just think for a minute about the things you&#8217;ve complained about over the past month.  </p>
<p>I&#8217;m always up for making a fool of myself, so I&#8217;ll go first:</p>
<p><em>My arms aren&#8217;t toned enough.</em></p>
<p><em>I want a new computer desk.</em></p>
<p><em>Why do treadmills have to be so expensive?!</em></p>
<p><em>What do I have to do to get my ____ site to show up higher in GOOGLE?!</em></p>
<p><em>It&#8217;s sooooo cold&#8230;</em></p>
<p>I&#8217;m feeling amazingly good about myself right about now.  < / sarcasm> You see, I just learned something heart-breaking.  <a href="http://www.carymiller.net" target="blank">Cary Miller</a>, the brilliantly talented young man who designed this blog and helped tremendously with its launching, recently lost his beautiful wife to cancer.  She bravely (and I mean bravely) fought the disease for a long time, and in that time she touched many lives.  Whether they were, like Lori, fighting for their own lives or not, she was a source of inspiration.</p>
<p>Equally inspirational was Cary&#8217;s love for Lori.  Every word he wrote hugged her and refused to let go&#8230;refused to let her fight the monster alone.  His words still hug his young bride who died far, far, far too young.</p>
<p>I used to check in on Lori through her blog (&#8220;<a href="http://toosexyformyhair.com" target="blank">Too Sexy for my Hair</a>&#8220;) regularly.  I&#8217;d read her words and, of course, pray for her.   The last time I checked in,  I thought she had taken a turn for the better &#8211; I honestly thought she was going to be okay.  I remember even thinking, &#8220;Here&#8217;s one you aren&#8217;t going to get, Cancer!&#8221;  I was totally blown away this morning when I went to Cary&#8217;s blog.  As the blog was loading, I read the word &#8220;widowhood&#8221; in the title bar and felt my heart sink.</p>
<p>I just wanted to post a message to pay tribute to Cary, to Lori, and to the very special love they shared.    I also wanted to apologize for not knowing about this and posting this message sooner.  </p>
<p>My heart goes out to the family and friends of this very special lady.  </p>
<p>I encourage you to visit Cary&#8217;s blog as well as the Too Sexy for my Hair blog &#8211; the writing is utterly beautiful and you&#8217;ll be touched in ways you never imagined.   We&#8217;ll begin donating a percentage of the income Office Freaks generates to Lori&#8217;s favorite charities, detailed <a href="http://toosexyformyhair.com/2007/12/giving-to-those-less-fortunate-in-loris.html">HERE</a>.  </p>
<p>When you hear about something like this, it makes the world absolutely stand still, doesn&#8217;t it?   At least when it is still, we can finally realize what matters in life, and, certainly, what doesn&#8217;t matter.  </p>
