Goodie Bag #53 - How to get out of a rut (4/1/2008)
Babes, it’s easy to get in a rut. We find things that work for us and we stick with them, and that’s understandable…but sometimes you’ve gotta make a change. How about you? Ready for a change? We've got some tips on getting started, plus reviews of new jeans and other products we love and more.
Goodie Bag #52 - How to make tax time easier (3/18/2008)
In years past, Editrix Jenni avoided tax prep until the last moment, and then spent lots of anxious time plowing through piles of paperwork. She was in the dark about her taxes and felt guilty for not handling it all perfectly. (Ugh, can we just ban that word?) But she’s learned some tricks and while taxes still aren’t fun, she feels confident now. You can too! We have some tips for you at the site, and a batch of them in this Goodie Bag.
Goodie Bag #51 - How to embrace new beginnings (3/4/2008)
Regular readers know that Editrix Jenni and hubby Steve were displaced last year when a ferocious storm nearly destroyed their home. Well, they’re back home now and slowly unpacking and resettling. It’s weird and wonderful and overwhelming all at once. Jenni’s looking to friends for advice on handling change and fresh starts, and we’re excited to share some of those tips with you in this issue...like finding assistants so you can outsource, getting your stuff organized and examples of how other folks have embraced change.

Goodie Bag #48 - Invisible illness? Make your voice heard! (1/22/2008)
Sure, we’re all for accepting illness and finding workarounds—that’s a big part of being a ChronicBabe. After all, focusing 24/7 on our illnesses is negative. Babes want to fit in and feel “normal” instead of yakking all day about how sick we are. But sometimes you just have to speak out as an advocate for attitude changes and better treatment! We’ve got some tools to help you spread the word...like how to contact your Senator or Representatives, and how to build your own social network to encourage conversation.
