My Black is NOT Cracking.

I'm not Aging. I'm appreciating in value!

I was listening to one of the podcasts that I subscribe to last week and the topic was the female brain, and how aging and hormones affect women’s and men’s brains differently.  The woman was Dr. Lisa Mosconi, a Ph.D founder of Women’s Brain Initiative and associate director of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Clinic, and Assoc. …

I was online last weekend looking at tiny homes.  As if.  My current closet could double as a tiny home! I also watched a Netflix doc on minimalism.  Basically, it’s about rediscovering or discovering the important things in life. (Getting rid of the rest!) And while I have no desire to live out of a …

Throwing Shade on Shades I know! You gotta have your shades.  I have never been a sunglass person myself.  I don’t even like wearing my reading glasses.  I wear hats when I need to only.  I guess I just don’t like stuff sitting on my head or face.  Don’t go there!  I know you did. …

I am on the tail end of much needed vacation.  Earlier this week, I had an outdoor, socially distanced, dinner with my friend Barb.  In addition to being a friend, Barb is a psychologist, and when I’m lucky, will write an occasional guest post for me. Our conversations are always interesting, and never end without …

While doing some research for potential sponsors/partners for my future podcast and stage production, I decided (considering the amount of wine, my audience demographic probably consumes! Don’t shoot the messenger!) that statistically,I should consider some female or minority-owned wine brands.  Years ago, through a friend, I was introduced to the McBride Sisters.  (Not physically, but …

It’s been a rough few weeks.  I don’t know who this Murphy character is or why he has a law (And I didn’t really care enough to do the research.) but that law certainly seemed to fit my life experiences of late.  “If anything can go wrong, it will.” If you read my recent posts, …

When I bring up the word exercise, you would think I said exorcism based on the looks I get. I recently had dinner with a group of women.  (a SMALL GROUP. Outdoors! RELAX. I’m not playing out here in these Covid streets!) One of them had been waging a losing battle on weight loss for …

As I filled in my eyebrows recently, I just got so pissed off. (I know you are thinking, “she sure is pissed off a lot lately!”) First of all, it’s hard to color them in when you can’t see.  When you put on your glasses, they get in the way of the process.  The struggle is …

If you look up negativity in the dictionary, (Actually, does anyone even use a dictionary anymore?  Did Webster go bankrupt?) you would discover the definition that sadly, best describes my state of mind of late. (Go ahead and Google?) I know it’s a temporary phase, but boy of boy, it’s an ugly one. It’s been …

So, I meet my girl recently for a bite to eat.  We hadn’t seen each other in a while.  We are sitting there catching up and I cannot help but stare.  Her teeth were gleaming! I have friends who have done the teeth whitening products and they definitely brightened up their smiles, but not this …
