Just got a call from my son’s dad. ” are you alright?” Yes I am fine. It appears that Jackson called him up and said ” dad I am worried about mom. She bought all this ice cream and chocolate and made herself a huge sundae. She only eats like that when she is upset.” That is funny. I was off my game yesterday. Some stressful work stuff coupled with some stressful personal stuff. Not only did I eat the big sundae but at the same time I ate soy crisp crackers with Boursin cheese. And for whatever reason I feel better today. ( I did double my workout this morning out of guilt. ) But I am back on my game.
Mother Fucking Powerhouse!

Chantel and I are doing the Rock and Roll half Marathon in New Orleans. It’s at the end of February. I am definitely not in running condition for a half marathon. I could do 4-5 miles but my already broken foot couldnt handle 13. I need to start getting myself together. Start pushing myself and see how far I can actually go.
Daniel is on a 16 day no drinking program. Good for him. I bet he drops a few pounds. Have to go out to Vegas and start planning the Tokyo trade show. We, when I say We , I mean Lee has a lot of work to do .

Out of lemons comes lemonade. Woke up today stressed about my personal life and also a work item that is turning sour. Fuck it. I allowed myself to feel bad for half the day , now I am fine. As a mother fucking powerhouse, I have the power to change things.
Jackson has the biggest pimple I have ever seen on his nose. It’s commanding me to pop it. But he won’t allow me to

Finally recuperated. New Orleans is starting to get crowded for the Super Bowl . Poor Maya cut 4 tendons on her hand. That really stinks.
Nothing new

Kevin sent this letter to everyone in corporate. Wow so moving.

Yesterday we celebrateed 20 years! Its been 20 years since the birth of our company. How many bars can say that?!?? It just baffles me to think about that. I have been with Coyote Ugly for about half of that and in that time I have laughed and cried. I have made life long friends. I have discovered respect for individuals that caught me by surprise. I have been taught by our brand and its employes the very definition of tenacity. I have seen people discover new self limits under great stress. I have been inspired by our leadership. I’ve learned that a good CUS manager, guy or girl, always has Tampons on hand. This company has sent me to China, Dubai, Australia, London, El Salvador, Russia, Canada and Mexico. It’s been the single biggest learning experience I’ve ever had. We are now 20 years strong! I look forward to the next 20! Thank you so much for the ride!

I couldn’t be prouder. The bar was packed the staff was outstanding ! I am so happy. It’s been a long road but looking at the crowd and the staff tonight, it was all worth it!

Big NY 20 year anniversary. Jeremy our merch person was so sick of me asking for spaghetti strap t shirts that he made me 7 for every day of the week. Promised I would wear 1 a day for the next week. Here’s day 1.
20 years . Some great years and some not so great but it has been one hell of a ride!
