Hiatus-Say-Wha…

Let’s play catch-up, shall we?
It’s really, seriously, honestly, officially Fall. Don’t get me wrong I love Fall– crisp air, apple cider, the color orange. But it just feels too premature. I wasn’t ready to surrender my beach days– relaxed, simple, fun. This year– especially– Fall feels serious. Maybe it’s the wedding I need to start [...]

Hello-oh-oh, anyone there?

Okay…okay…
I know. It has been disgustedly long. I never realized how much of a commitment this blog was– my loyal followers and readers have been waiting patiently for something…anything. And I wish I had some awesome excuse– I left to travel the 7 wonders or I’m busy planning a 14-month-away wedding, but alas I have [...]

Cha-cha-changes. Pardon My Stutter.

I know it’s been forever since my last post (almost 2 months, jeez).  I have no excuse except that I’ve been utterly swamped. Vacations, birthdays– topped off with a ton of work and commitments has me in a first-ever, rapid whirlwind of nonstop “go-go-go.” Taking ten classes a semester was a breeze compared to my [...]

Third Chances…

are for the naive.
I am going to sound super angry– no perhaps bitter is a better word. I’d give anyone a second chance– we all make mistakes, right?  And sometimes all it takes is that second chance for someone to bounce back. But I don’t really believe in a third chance. I say really because [...]

Bah, Humbug.

Wow. This is kind of awkward– like learning how to put on eye liner for the first or walking into a screen door accidentally. Bare with me, please. Yes– I am back. I took a break. A long break. I don’t know why. I could feed you a million and one excuses but what it [...]

Funk my Funk– Life is too Short.

I’m in a funk. And I have been avoiding this blog like the plague– maybe out of lack of inspiration or maybe just because, I felt like neglecting it. Ha– take that blog. Or maybe I am neglecting me (which just so happens to involve this blog)…
UPDATE: I started this blog on being in a [...]

Thing-aholic.

Hello work week– woo-wee what a day. It’s one of those days where the to-do list I set out to defeat– defeated me (and grew longer). With this economy– being busy is a good thing so I’ll take it as a blessing in disguise.
The past few weeks– I’ve been thinking– about…things. Things we all want. [...]

Simplicity is Beautiful

This past weekend one of my best friends, Susie, got married to Pete– soul mates indeed. Susie is one of my dearest and oldest friends– she’s a pillar of support and a fabulous, selfless listener. She was married in an intimate ceremony (about 70 guests) on a rotunda overlooking the water in our hometown. The [...]

RAM: Remote Area Medical

I consider myself blessed.
And sometimes I need to remind myself of this. I am in good health. I have a roof over my head. A stellar support system made up of phenomenal family and friends. I have the luxury to buy “things”– clothes, electronics, recreational items (all within reason of course). It’s a pretty damn [...]

My Very Own: Vanity Fair (Proust) Questionnaire

I’m back. Daba-daba-doo. Don’t worry, I just took a little “vaca” from the ol’ blog to take in some carefree summer fun (not to mention I have been slammed at work, surprise, surprise.) But, rest assure, your fearless (ha, yeah right) blogger is ready to tickle the keyboard once again.
I’m not one for questionnaires. What’s [...]
