Ive been blogging for about two months now and Ive become so aware of how much work it takes to maintain a successful blog. It is truly difficult; but when blogging is your passion and you are fulfilled each time you post, then the work needed becomes a rewarding challenge. I went into blogging with…

Outfit Of The Day (OOTD)

Ive always wanted to be a model, but after this photo shoot, I realize that will NEVER happen. Modeling is not a walk in the park! I recently participated in a photo shoot for a podcast group that I am costarring in (Shout Out to 4 Girls And A Bottle ). We each were to wear…

My Birthday Wish List

Because my Birthday is all about ME, right? Most that know me, know that my birthday is a HUGE deal. I look forward to turning another year older every year and celebrating ME (so much so, I installed a countdown to my birthday timer on my homepage, but I’m not that pressed though…LOL). Every year…

The Emerald; My Rock

Not only Cleopatra’s favorite stone and my husbands favorite color; the emerald in all its green quartz beauty has grown on me year after year. It is my birthstone and has become my obsession!! Emerald, the birthstone of May, carries the rich green color of Spring and radiates a beautiful vivid tone. They are considered…

Anxiety

Anxiety is a feeling of nervousness, unease, or worry that typically occurs in the absence of an imminent threat. It differs from fear, which is the body’s natural response to immediate danger. Ive suffered with a mild anxiety disorder since I was a teenager, but it didn’t really affect me as much until about 6…

Smell Good Spring

No elegance is possible without perfume. It is the unseen, unforgettable, ultimate accessory – Coco Chanel Despite the fact that it feels like its winter outside, spring is in the air and its time to shift from smoky fire, wood and leather, strong espresso and evergreen scents to fun, feminine, fresh, and flirty scents. Perfume…

To Hair Or Not To Hair

Spring is approaching and my thoughts of long, flowing strawberry blonde hair are creeping back in. Ive been wearing my hair short for about 2 years now, but that doesn’t stop me from going in my wig drawer and looking through my variety of “units” (a unit is a more professional term for a wig)…

“When you doubt your power, you give power to your doubt.” ~Honore de Balzac You hear that voice in your head… You can’t do it. You’ll never be good enough. You’re going to fail.

Tired of receiving ties and socks for Fathers Day… Year after year, I hear Dads around me grumbling about the gifts they received for Father’s Day. Although appreciative, Dads cant help but to feel a certain way when Moms are showered with lavish gifts for Mother’s Day and they are forced to settle with a…

Crabs, Crabs and Mo Crabs

I consider myself a crab connoisseur of sorts, so much that I decided to blog about them. I absolutely LOVE eating crabs; I love ritualistically cracking each red-shelled appendage and smiling from ear to ear at the beautiful, meaty reward. Not only are they oh, so scrumptious, but it’s a way to spend time and…

Taurus Season Has Finally Arrived…. This sign is incredibly hard-working, tough, and dedicated. It’s a fixed sign, which means those who are under this sign are known for their stubborn streak. There’s a reason Taurus is associated with the bull. Have you ever tried to make a bull do something it didn’t want to? Neither…

My Ballerina Nail Journey I use to rock long acrylic nails with floral designs and rhinestones (the Bmore Deluxe) back when I was a teenager and into my early twenties. After I began to have children, I felt like my long nails were ridiculous and I didn’t want to be Edward Scissorhanding my babies, so…

Is it possible to have both… I recently participated in a discussion with my sister-in-law regarding a really interesting topic. Is it possible for a woman to have it all? Is it possible to balance a successful executive career and maintain a joyous family life? She believes it’s not possible, I however, believe it’s definitely…
