“Down an inch, up an inch.” Sounds simple enough, and almost ridiculously elementary. But seriously, it’s not. Thighs a shaking, I close my eyes to finish the last 20 (wait, did she say THIRTY?) micro pulses that hurts so good. No pain, no gain, right? I get my kicks (no pun intended) of trying things, […]
Hip to be Square
I’m in love with our master bath. It has a certain zen factor that takes the edge off as soon as I walk in. And that bath tub? Chandelier? Obsessed. I soak until I resemble a prune, or I start fearing the chandelier falling on my head. Yes, my imagination gets the best of me […]
The year of losing
Instead of my win and gain mentality of years past, I’ve begrudgingly learned to eliminate habits that needed to be sloughed off– a microdermabrasion for the soul. Here are 8 habits I’ve eliminated and some I’m still working on. The risk is people actually calling me out when I’m out of line. Accountability is good, […]
7 Things about Miss Universe
Who isn’t talking about this today? I have to admit, I rewinded “that moment” at least 3 times. And the internet is ablaze with comments, opinions, and even conspirocies about the pageant. So, I thought I’d recap some moments I found interesting that maybe, just maybe you didn’t know. Get ready to be enlightened: 1.) […]

Holiday traffic has been insane, and holiday road rage is in full effect. Why have running errands never been slowed to a jog? I get it: we walk dogs, but are we running errands, or the errands running us? I’m dog-gone tired. I am one panic attack away from Ubering the rest of my Christmas […]
12 days of Christmas
These are my favorite (officially observed) 12 days of Christmas: 1.) December 1st: National Day Of Giving #GivingTuesdayWe stuff our faces with turkey, then shop our wallets off on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. And, let’s not fool ourselves that every single one of those purchases are for others. Hence, a day to actually give back. […]
Coffee Date
You all should know by now that I’m definitely a coffee drinker. And since the European Association of Cardiology actually says that drinking four cups of coffee a day lowers the risk of death, I’m all about visiting my local coffee shop (or Starbucks!) as much as possible.While I’m not sure if I can actually […]
Project Costume
Halloween has always been a bust for me. My lack of creativity started off at an early age when I insisted my Wonder Woman underoos sufficed as a costume. Obsessed with Lynda Carter, I was the same character 3 years in a row, minus the Lasso of Truth, tiara, or truth bracelets. (my mom wasn’t […]
