Best business tip/idea I’ve learned so far this year: Do not send long e-mails, no one wants to read them. Use bullet points.

Three things you’ll find in my wallet that help to describe me: A letter my husband wrote me when we were dating, a personal “to do list”, and then just the usual- money, license, etc.!
