About Me:: I have been married for 20 years and have 4 children with 2 still living at home in High School and the eldest son is in the Navy and eldest daughter is in her 3rd year of college back in Colorado.

I love to read, cook, play golf, fantasy football and make my own line of Hot Clili Powders (using NC grown Cayenne, Jalapeno, Scotch Bonnet and Habanero chillies).

Hanging with my sweetie and kids doing pretty much anything make for the perfect day.

About my Business:: My mission is to launch Social Communities specifically focused on the Micro Business Owner and Profession in very small geographic areas. Where people can connect, share and grow their networks and in turn their business.

There are now close to 300 Micro Business Networks (like inSide919) setup across America. One for each area code in the US with a committed focus on that areas small business owner and professional.

I feel that the Large National/Global services (MySpace, Facebook, Linkedin) don't serve this segment of American Business very well and hope to change that in a small way.

I am passionate about this mission.

My Ideal Customer is:: A business interested in becoming a 'Sponsor' of one of these networks. There will only be 40 Sponsors per network (10 per category) and we have some really neat things to offer that will help with their internet marketing on several fronts. Simply contact me via the internal email.

My Ideal Referral Partner is:: Someone who has a blog, website, newsletter, mailing list or other communication platform that speaks to small business owners. Business Coaches are a great match for what we offer.

At 2:54pm on October 30, 2008, Theresa AKA Grammie said…: the eco-friendly dolls actually started out as a child safe doll. I started making them when my children, now 22, 19 and 18, were babies. They each tried walking with a baby before being steady on those new walking feet and the oldest one fell and hit her chin on the head of the baby. And so I made her babies with cloth heads....the easiest cloth to do this with was muslin ( 100% cotton fabric) and from there the rest of the world evolved to be eco-conscious. My dolls did not change society just gave them a name. The other side of them is that because they are constructed of muslin they last forever....my 5 yr old granddaughter is playing with a 21 year old doll and other than being permanently dirty is some spots you cannot tell it from the ones that I made her.
