Resolution: Back to my Blog with a NEW location


Okay, it's January of a brand new year, so why not join the masses and throw a resolution out there that I may or may not deliver on. As you can see by the date of my last blog entry, it's been quite awhile since I've blogged on here. Before you judge me for allowing so much time to lapse between blogs, you should know that it's not that I haven't been blogging---in fact I was blogging quite a bit--I was simply blogging elsewhere. I was writing daily blogs (sometimes 2 or 3 a day) on my company's website, so I let my personal blog site slide... Well, now I am vowing to return. So here I am. Back to my Reed My Lips blog. And, for creative flexibility, I'm relocating this blog to wordpress. Here's the link to the new location: www.JenniferReedMyLips.wordpress.com.

When you're contributing to your company's website content with blogs, you find yourself having to write about what appeals to their specific "customer" and what works with their "brand" instead of your own. Obviously, that isn't as freeing as being able to simply write what's on your mind, so my goal is to blog at least once a month. I'd like to blog even more than that, but I don't want to make too lofty of a resolution. I find that if I set a goal that is manageable, I've got a much better chance of accomplishing it. Plus, I don't want to feel "required" to do it. I simply want to enjoy writing for the sake of writing when I FEEL like writing.

So here's to a brand new year, a brand new blog, AND a brand new location. Cheers.

Rehab Rehashes Death of Layne Staley


A recent episode of Celebrity Rehab focused on Mike Starr (former bassist for Alice In Chains) and how the death of lead singer Layne Staley affected him. He was the last person to see Layne alive and relives the story on the show... very touching. Layne Staley's mother also made a guest appearance. Click HERE to read my blog about it.
