I know a webdesigner can, because of driving to clients, and use it as a deduction when tax time comes around, but can a blogger? :-) I have to drive to the cafe sometimes to blog outside the house… would that count?

I would love to have a life coach, like one personally for me, well, I guess my therapist would be my life coach, she seems to know everything. Anyway, this Clay Nelson fellow’s CDs are very uplifting and positive, it talks about one of my favorite methods of motivation- the power of positive thinking.
