I was asked to interview Katie Couric. One problem. I am not a journalist! | #katieshow #celebrity
If you haven't, check out my Introduction to the Katie Couric Interview Series. I'm not a journalist. I'm a mom. I'm a blogger. I don't really report the news, I promote it. I would imagine that's why I received a call (to my surprise), last week, from Disney. The call came through on my home phone from an "Anonymous" number, and I almost didn't answer it. I was cooking dinner while holding Jett, and of course, he was trying to bend over to get into my shirt because he was hungry. Braxton and Hawk were fighting over their Xbox game, or…
Katie Couric’s Talk Show “Katie” Premiers September 10 on ABC | #katieshow #daytimetv
Katie, the new talk show featuring Katie Couric premiers September 10, on ABC! It wasn't until last week, that I even knew that Katie even had a talk show in the works! On Wednesday, she was in Houston to promote her new show, and I was honored to be able to sit down and interview her about the next chapter in her already accomplished life. I think it's great to see Katie Couric away from the news desk, not talking about current affairs, and not sitting in a political spotlight! Her new daytime talk show plans to cover relevant topics…
Ms. Trisha’s No-No Rules for Brandcation Song! | #brandcation #pigeonforge #dollyparton
Just lots of good will, and maybe one small thrill, but there's nothing dirty going on! You know, we're having an awesome 80's party at Brandcation this time, and there's not really much that I like better than some good ol 80's music! However, I'm sitting here listening to my Dolly Parton Playlist on Spotify this is kinda appropriate, too, because some of Dolly's BEST music was from the 80's! I'm actually thinking about changing my mind from my simple 80's shirt to something a little Chicken I mean, I've got the boobs for almost. We can't forget one of…
Lumber Jack Feud – Eye Candy & Testosterone Filled Dinner Show! | #Brandcation #PigeonForge
This just in! We're taking a trip to the Lumber Jack Feud – Pigeon Forge Dinner Theater! After checking out this place, I'm ready to today. I think this is probably going to be one of the most exciting and unique dinner shows I've ever seen! Haha! There is going to be a ton of catcalls as the group of Brandcation women eat dinner while watching a bunch of brawny men flex their muscles and log sawing skills!! My, oh my. I mean, seriously, check 'em out! These guys are HAWT! *OMG* Taking place in a new 10 million dollar facility, once…
Hey Girl… #brandcation
Thanks, Kim, for the inspiration for this "Hey Girl" pic! Thank you, Shasta, for taking the pic, and giving me express written permission to use it on my blog - or at least I think that's what "Omg girl you dont have to give me credit!" means! :) This pic was taken at Brandcation, Global Getaway! Join in on the "Hey " Blog Hop!
Representing the 80’s my way! #brandcation #pigeonforge
With all the hype going around about the 80's party that we're having at this October's Brandcation, I have 80's representation covered. Simple. Cheap. Effective. (I already have 2 of these.) I don't do girly - 80's or not - Madonna and Cyndi are out of the picture for this 80's fanatic! I don't even mind wearing one of these tees to Dollywood!
FINALLY! A call center that actually know what you’re calling about! | Global Response
Have you ever thought about who you're talking to on the other end of the phone when you call a major business to make a reservation, file a complaint, or ask a question? Most of the time, conversations are smooth sailing, and you're off the phone before you know it with a positive result. For instance, not too long ago, I had to call ThinkGeek about an order I totally screwed up. The person on the other end of the phone was extremely polite and knowledgeable, and we got things figured out and on the right track. There have been…
Happy Steel (11th) Anniversary to Us! | #happyanniversary
I posted our wedding story, last year, if you'd like to read it! 11th is the "Steel" anniversary. Odd? I supposed I need to look for something stainless? :0) Happy 11th Anniversary, Andy.
Ceiling.. meet floor. How to scare the mess out of your kids. | #whatjusthappened
The other day, I posted about our walls crying and bleeding. Ultimately, we had an A/C leak. We had the guys come out and fix the leak, and yesterday, I was talking to my dad about coming over here to see what we need to do about getting the house dried out, when I noticed that the ceiling was sagging. He said he'd be over a little later, because my sister had just gotten into town a bit earlier. I messaged Andy: Lisa Johnston 3:32 PM this ceiling is sagging BIG TIME. Andy's Phone 3:33 PM did you dad come…
