Hi everyone!
My name is Belinda Boit and I live here in Arlington. I have three sons, one of which is at UC Boulder Co. and two in Arlington Public schools. I have a small interior/commercial design company. At this time I work part time and do not advertise, luckily word of mouth has kept me busy. As my mom time frees up more I will begin working and advertising more.
I hope to learn and update my knowlege of social media. It seems to move at a lightening speed. I know Sandra personally and she is an amazing teacher so I am excited to learn more about what she does and how she helps others.

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this
topic to be actually something that I think I would never understand.
It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I'm looking forward for your next post, I'll try to get the hang
of it!

Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
The text in your article seem to be running off the screen in Safari.
I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know.
The design and style look great though! Hope you get the issue fixed
soon. Kudos
