There were some challenges that I expected when becoming a mother. I mean, sleep deprivation is a given. I already knew that I’d be a zombie for the better part of the first few months. I wasn’t prepared for it, but I expected it. I’m not sure how I could have prepared for the lack […] Read more…

Monday Mingle: Bejeweled!
You may not know it, but I’m a bit of a fashion lover. I think it’s from dabbling in the industry when I was younger. I got hooked. I may not wear all of the fabulous stuff I see, but I’m looking and I like it! I even went so far as to drag my […] Read more…
Mom’s Best Friend
When it comes to my beauty regimen, I’m still tinkering to find the perfect mix. My bathroom is full of hair and skin products that are currently in testing mode while I hope to finally hit the beauty jackpot. One skincare product comes to mind as one that has truly proven itself to me. Mother’s […] Read more…
When Cooties Attack
To say I have been M.I.A. would be an understatement. I have been laying real low for several days for good reason. Everyone in my office has been sick. It was only a matter of time before I went down too. I caught a cold that turned into some sort of head/pressure/sinus/cooties attack. Yeah, it […] Read more…
Summer, I Miss You
I’m linking up this week with Mama Kat’s Writer’s Workshop. The prompt I chose: Remember Summer? The warm air, blue skies, and endless days in the water? Me either. Share a photo from last Summer that brings you back. This summer, I’m looking forward to more days at the beach. More backyard grilling and more […] Read more…
Did He Try to Kill Me?
It’s not something I’m proud of but, that doesn’t make it any less true. I can’t swim. It shocks people to know this about me. I guess I just hang out with a bunch of swimmers! I have a really good reason why I can’t swim. At least, I think it’s a good reason. It […] Read more…
Am I Just Selfish?
There’s something that’s been on my mind and I wanted to toss it out to you guys for some feedback. I think most of you know that I live in Los Angeles. However, I’m not from here. I’m from Detroit and that means I’m a LONG way from home and my family. As an only […] Read more…
Monday Mingle : Bump Style
Strange as it seems, I like eating ice cream and cookies at ten o’clock at night. All of a sudden, I really just want a glass of milk and I don’t even like milk. My sense of smell has really picked up too. It’s other-worldly at this point. It seems I have a little visitor […] Read more…
Making My List, Checking It Twice
As I creep closer and closer to the big 4-oh, I start to think more and more about things I want to do. I have so many things I want to accomplish and somehow I plan to cram a lot of it in before I turn forty. Luckily, I have some years to get it […] Read more…
Reverse Bucket List
People always make a list of things they want to do in their lifetime. Here’s a twist – how about a list of things I never, ever wanna do. Ever. 1 – Bungee jump – Why? Just why? Not sure why I would want to dangle from a glorified rubber band suspended hundreds of feet […] Read more…
