Way….waaaay back when I was 24 I was living in Manhattan with girlfriends and just starting out in a new job. A childhood friend that is a nurse called me out of the blue to say one of the docs at her hospital just bought an apartment 2 blocks from me. He doesn’t know anyone. [...]

…not Photoshop’d either!
Y’all probably think I’m nuts but the thing is bulldogs cannot swim. Not just mine…its a breed thing. Their body mass is too heavy for their short legs to keep afloat. I can’t take them to a beach and we don’t have central air conditioning hence the baby pool. They love this thing [...]

Tomorrow. UGH. Tomorrow. I will be attending my ex boyfriend’s newest girlfriends baby shower. Now…showers of any type are awful….but this is extra-special-awful because it requires me to navigate all of the traffic going to the Hamptons…on a Saturday afternoon. It has the potential to truly and completely suck. But I have to go. I wish he would [...]

This weekend K jokingly said something that got me thinking…. he said our retirement would be an RV in JM or her brother’s driveway….if they’d have us. And you know what? It really put the role reversal on me… imagining that I am an old person, kind of lonely, scared of the next chapters, in [...]

…so I really rock out at the gym….got the iPod on full blast etc. For some inexplicable reason, ever since I was a kid I get goose bumps a lot. Music gives me goose bumps all the time. Moving speeches by politicians gives me goose bumps. The scene where George and Maria dance on the [...]

See…I am not a procratinator. Not one tiny bit. So…BFF and I have been trying to motivate each other to grow our businesses. But I realized I cannot do all these visualization exercises cuz I am not happy with being a designer for rich people. I have done no marketing since I have been on [...]

Anyone know if it is too late to plant hydrangea bushes? I’d like to get some going along one side of our fence but I am clueless about when to do it and I believe the timing is important. Hydrangeas, anyone? anyone?
Tomorrow is our 3rd anniversary. So far so good. From the get go I [...]

Yes, it’s 3pm on Father’s Day. As of yet, neither of the children have called K to wish him a happy Father’s Day. JM–who presumably lives with us but has not been home in a week–didn’t answer his calls. He called her twice today. I sincerely hope she has something up her sleeve to acknowledge [...]
