This Is My Now: Pursuing The Power Within

Every year around this time, I start to panic.  I panic because according to the calendar I’m about six weeks shy of officially turning older.  Internally, I start to take inventory of what I’ve personally accomplished and what I haven’t.  I begin to assess if I was productive enough over the last twelve months or … Continued

FIFTY SHADES OF CALM DOWN, IT'S JUST A TRAILER!

Seriously, it’s not that big of a deal.  Trust me,  it’s no more than a tease.  Calm down people, it’s just a trailer.

A few weeks ago I attended a dinner party with a bunch of women to celebrate a friend’s 40th birthday.  Over the course of the meal we talked about a million and one things.  Kids, spouses, camp, work, school, jewelry, current events, health and wellness, and food and fashion just to name a few.   … Continued

U Came… UCONN… U Conquered!

I’ll cut to the chase and give you the punchline before I tell you the whole joke. Last night I won my March Madness pool when the Connecticut Huskies (32-8) beat the Kentucky Wildcats (29-11) with a final score of 60-54 in the 2014 NCAA Men’s National Championship Game. I.  FREAKIN’.  WON. Let me back … Continued

REMEMBRANCE MONDAY

Since Thursdays are referred to as TBT (Turn Back Time) and Fridays are known as Flashback Friday, why not call today Remembrance Monday? Memories are different for everyone and they come in all varieties.  Some are funny.  Some are awkward.  Others are so amazing that we try to recreate them over and over.  Occasionally when … Continued
