A Cabbage Moment

I just had to share with you all an amusing thing that happened to me recently. I do a variety of freelance writing in a variety of genres and niches, and I was working on a product review for a client. The product was a well known Hemorrhoid cream, and I was asked to also discuss various natural cures for piles (aka hemorrhoids).

Believe it or not, while I was doing my research I came across the funniest thing. Did you know that a “natural” cure for hemorrhoids is to sit on chopped cabbage? Apparently someone tried it. Sometimes freelancing, or any home business, can get a bit hectic, but it is times like those that really keep you going. I spent about ten minutes at my computer laughing until my gut hurt about this supposed cure.

Remember, laughter is important when you have your own business. Take time to find those “cabbage” moments and lighten up. You’ll find that your work is better and that you feel better as well.

Does anyone else have any similar amusing stories? Feel free to share them with us!
