empowering women hour by hour

I have an announcement, ladies and gentlemen: I am in love. It’s true. I am almost completely overcome with this beautiful feeling.
I have fallen in love…with music.
(I had you going there for a minute, didn’t I? tee hee )
But seriously, it occurred to me that, although my blog is entitled “Marta’s Melodies,” and [...]
One of my friends keeps telling me I’m a superhero. I’m not sure exactly when or why that started, but whenever and whyever it was, it stuck.
And, okay, I liked it. (Wouldn’t you?) In fact, I even have a “superhero” pose, where I stick my hands on my hips and look off into the distance, [...]
Lately, this crazy thing’s been happening to me…and to basically everyone I know: we’ve been experiencing really, really difficult things. In addition to what’s on my plate right now, one of my dearest friends is getting over a really bad breakup. Another is changing careers. Another is coping with immense physical pain, with few medical [...]
Can I tell you how much I absolutely love being a woman? I really do. Like, I get to wear cute clothes, and do my hair in adorable styles, and play with makeup all the time. I love shopping for shoes and drooling over cute actors and musicians (okay, and cute everybody-elses…lol). I enjoy every [...]
I have a confession to make: I’m totally addicted to something. I do it almost daily. The days I don’t get to do it, I miss it–crave it–until I can do it again.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am a workout junkie.
Whew! Feels great to get that off my chest (lol!). Yes! I absolutely love, love, LOVE exercising! [...]

How many times are our lives like that? The “storms” keep [...]
I am a nerd. For any of you who’d disagree with me, I’ll prove it to you by the following statement: I was watching Star Trek: The Next Generation recently (now do you believe me? lol), and some random guest star scientist dude was chatting with Wesley Crusher, the teenage son of Dr. Beverly [...]
Today has been really crazy. I happen to have this amazing blog in the works for you…it’s just not done yet. And to not distract from the awesome guest blog we have coming up tomorrow, I’m just going to keep creating my blog entry and post it next time (unless, of course, some new and [...]
I’m beginning to do a whole bunch of things that I have never done before. Venturing into unfamiliar territory can be a little scary and overwhelming…not to mention frustrating when things don’t go according to plan. Upon discussing my lack of experience in a certain area of grownup-hood with an individual much more [...]
Blah! Sorry! I let my day get away from me.
Anyways, just a few short thoughts this evening. Remember that “state of transition” I talked about last week? Well, it’s still there, just to let you know (in fact, there’s even talk of adding it to the Union!–just kidding). And in this state, there are certain [...]
