Hey BGB’ers… Happy Monday! 🙂 Just wanted to do a bit of a more personal post today and share some of my life with you. I haven’t posted much on the personal end since my Dad died. But I did announce in 2010 that my guy and I finally got engaged. And despite all the roadblocks the last two years have thrown our way, the big day finally was set and came on January 30th of this...
Happy New Year My Lovelies!
I am currently in the throes of final preparations for our wedding, BGB style. Coming soon to a venue near you. hehe (OK maybe not exactly near you, but it sounded good.) Just wanted to take a moment out of the day to wish all of you a challenging (the good kind of challenging), wonderfully fabulous, productive, lucrative, and blessed 2013 in every way. While today is typically considered a day...
Happy Early Turkey Day Dorks!
Howdy… if you’re reading this, I hope it’s because you’re on a little mini vacay for the holiday and you’ve got some free time to catch up on your reading pleasure. 😉 Turkey day is around the corner and I don’t know about you but I’m gearing up for some yummy food, yummy deserts (pumpkin cheesecake anyone?) and possibly a nap to kick all nap’s asses...
Wayne Padgett- R.I.P. Daddy, See You on the Other Side…
Hey BGB’ers. Some of you may have heard by now, others may not have, so this is why I am writing this post. Not too long ago my dad was diagnosed with throat cancer. On July 1st, he went in for a radical tonsillectomy surgery. It should have been an outpatient procedure. He ended up staying a couple extra days to make sure he was swallowing OK. They said everything looked great, despite...
BGB- InTreeHouses- And Huge Thanks!
Hey my lovelies! I did promise more videos, didn’t I? Good, bad or ugly! Please excuse the rag-a-muffin look, it does seem to come naturally. 😉 So. Here is a very short video, dedicated to Thom of InTreeHouses.com and to YOU, who should all totally subscribe to his publication. #JustSayin’. Thom- this thank you’s for you, kid. 😉 (Damn I crack myself up sometimes…) Thom...
New Years Kick-Off… An iPad, a Bloggie and BIG NEWS!
Hey my lovelies! Hope ya’ll had a killer Christmas holiday… I know I’m still a bit sluggish from all the yummy food! Anyhoo… I’ve Got News! But you have to watch my very first BGB video below in order to find out what it is. I’m not so hot with the whole video thang, so cut me some slack if I flub here and there OK? 😉 After you watch the first one...
We Interrupt Your Regularly Scheduled Entrepreneur Programming…
To announce an upgrade! So, if you’ve attempted to visit BGB in the last day or two, you might have noticed that disturbing “Maintenance Mode” page. I’ve had couple of you email me, asking me if everything was OK, and making sure I wasn’t having a blog meltdown! Luckily, no blog meltdown, but I did have a blog revamp, which you’ll have noticed as soon as you...
Dear Big Girl Branding- An Open Letter of Apology to My Blog
First of all, I’d just like to thank you for being so good to me since your birth. I know those birthing canals can get a bit tight, so I am grateful you don’t hate me for not being a better “birther”. (Yes I made that word up.) Since you were born, you’ve come a long way. You morphed from SexyCopy.Org, with its somewhat off-putting name (No, sexy copy was not a porn site, tyvm) into the...
And the Winner Is!
OK, so after much ado about nothing, I’m announcing the winner of the “Oh So Lucrative” $10 contest! First though, thanks to all of you who took the time to introduce yourselves and come out of Lurksville. It was fun, and I got to see that more than just my Mom secretly stalks me! 😉 Luckily no restraining orders are needed quite yet, so I feel quite safe. After mucho deliberation, I decided that...
Hello. My name is. Wha??? SLIM SHADY!!- Oh Wait.. I mean Cori!
So what’s your name? OK ladies and gents… I know many of you are subscribed to BGB’s newsletter (hint: the sign up box is over to the left!), as well as RSS and Email. .. so I KNOW you’re reader’s of mine! (Yep, your secrets out!) However, only a handful of you have made yourself known to the rest of us by commenting (which I totally appreciate by the way!!!) and...
