Many moons ago, I had a career. A pretty cool career. I was a TV Producer in New York City. I knew early on that I wanted to work in some aspect of TV. Then I took a television production course in college, and I was convinced. So after college, I fought my way into…

NATIONAL SAY SOMETHING NICE DAY – June 1st
Happy “NATIONAL SAY SOMETHING NICE DAY”! Today is June 1st and it not only means it’s the start of a typically fun month when we finally see more sunshine and warm weather.

The Forgotten Box In The Attic
THE ATTIC DISCOVERY: Spring cleaning recently led me to the back corner of my attic. A place I haven’t visited in the four years since we moved into our house. Besides cobwebs, I discovered several boxes with my name written on them. Forgotten boxes. I remembered them once I saw them. I have dragged these…
Wordless Wednesday / Gorilla Love
Today is #WordlessWednesday. A quick explanation ~ “On Wednesdays all over the internet, bloggers post a photograph with no words to explain it on their blog. Hence the ‘wordless’ title.

“OMG, That’s Like So Last Year!”
MOMENTS THAT MAKE ME LAUGH My kids and I were driving to visit family this weekend when I saw a sign that said “Giant Tag Sale Today”. I love a good tag sale. Whatever you call it… garage sale, yard sale, lawn sale, estate sale (I know, those are slightly creepy), rummage sale, moving sale,…
Recovering From A Day Of Daddy Being In Charge
The day after Mother’s Day is sort of like New Year’s Day in my house. It’s a day to recover. Why? Daddy was in charge for the day. All in all, I had a fabulous Mother’s Day. I am extremely grateful I was able to sleep in, and thanks to this “Do Not Disturb” sign, no…
Top 5 Ways To Help Mom Celebrate Mother’s Day
1). Let Her Sleep. 2). Let Her Sleep. 3). Let Her Sleep. 4). Let Her Sleep More. 5). Give Her Wine. Just kidding! Well, half kidding. Every mom I know, myself included, can use more sleep. The moment I gave birth, my quantity and quality of sleep went right out the window, (along with…
