Today started out like the usual Sunday morning with a cup of coffee, breakfast and reading the paper before the Today show comes on! (I love the Today show and have been know to DVR it!!) I was reading the paper in the order it is folded (Main section, Sports, Community and Business) and just finished my toast with peanut butter when I got to the Business section.
Several pages into the section, I glanced at all the headlines and one jump right off the page "Cox in 'Make...A Million' race." Since my last name is Cox, I immediately read it and then realized very quickly this little article was about ME!!! OMG!!! I copied and pasted the online version for everyone to see. (would have linked to the paper but you have to be a subscriber to see it)

Cox in 'Make... A Million' race
Amanda Cox, owner of Nothing But Chocolate (a handmade chocolate manufacturer), is taking part in the "Make Mine a Million $ Business (M3) Race," a year long race designed to grow women-owned businesses, stimulate the economy and create jobs.
The "race" is being conducted by "Count Me In for Women's Economic Independence" and American Express.
Cox is available to speak about her Cambridge-based business, her business growth ambitions and experience.
For more information, go to http://www.makemineamillion.org/.
The funny thing is that as soon as I read it, I immediately jump off the couch and told myself I need to get started making the buckeye filling I was putting off making this morning!! (Just the motivation I needed for the day!)
Sometimes things happen when you least expect it! (Like 7:30am on Sunday morning.)
This is awesome! You are doing great!
