A large part of this past week was lost to me dealing with “the crud” that settled into my sinuses and made me miserable and generally unpleasant to be around. Thankfully Nyquil exists, so I spent a lot of time in medically induced slumber. I’m still trying to crawl out of that hole and till feel as sharp as a… Read more »
Today is National Curves Day. Today is the day to celebrate “curvy” women- aka any woman who wears over a size 14. Fun fact- the average size in the US IS 14, so half the population is curvy. For most of human history, fuller figured women were considered the most attractive women. If you have ever talked through an art… Read more »
It takes a special kind of person to be a die-hard fan of a bad team. I should know. I’m a Miami Dolphins fan. For those of you who don’t know, as of this writing the Dolphins are 1 and 3 and their most recent loss was to the Tennessee Titans – who came into the game winless. Our quarterback… Read more »
I’ve been feeling down lately. Not the clinically depressed kind of down. I’m not feeling agoraphobic. I’m not feeling paranoid. I’m not feeling scared to get out of bed. I’ve been there, done that, more than once. So I know what that feels like and I know it’s not that. No, instead I’m just feeling concerned/ worried about the future… Read more »
I am frequently told that I do not look my age. I do wonder if this is partly because I don’t ACT my age, but to be fair I’ve never been 52 before. But it is true that people usually guess my age around 10 years younger than I actually am. So today I’m going to share my secrets for… Read more »
I had a super fun, super busy weekend after a long and stressful week of work. I did not plan ahead very well, so I don’t have anything on deck ready to go. And tonight I am just too tired to think let alone compose a semi- intelligent set of sentences on a topic that’s been on my mind. We… Read more »
My husband Pat and I spent a few days in Miami at the end of June. We hit up an autograph show, we spent time with old friends, made new ones, and took in the sights. We had a great time! I was looking for just a nice getaway, and it was that for sure. But it turned out… Read more »
With a VERY few exceptions I hate shopping. I don’t mind grocery shopping and I’ll never turn down a trip to Ulta. But after that it tapers off pretty quickly. I don’t like shoe shopping. I have super high arches, so many slip on shoes and boots don’t fit me at all. I wear a size 9 1/2, which is… Read more »
I’m kicking myself like crazy today. Somehow I missed the memo that the Northern Lights would be visible in my neck of the woods this past weekend. I don’t know how I missed it because now it seems like it was EVERYWHERE. My allergies were kicking my ass most of the week, so maybe I was just in a Benadryl… Read more »
We’ve all seen corporate mission statements. Tesla’s is “to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy”. Google’s is “to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful”. Did you know that individuals can have mission statements too? This was a foreign concept to me until I went through my company’s leadership training program. Full disclosure- when this… Read more »
