Happy New Year friends! I hope you rang in the New Year in style 🙂 I was nursing a pretty bad cold, so mine consisted of watching New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, hot tea, and a face mask 🙂 It was actually a really nice change of pace. NYE in NYC, as you can imagine, isContinue reading Recovery-Positive Resolutions
The Thing about Clean Slates
It’s been a really interesting time that I’ve been home here. Like, really interesting. To the point where, I have been just so caught up in the moment, and wrapped up in life, allowing my heart to be open…it’s almost as though I am a different person. Let’s just say that for truly the first time,Continue reading The Thing about Clean Slates
Blackmail Material :)
Merry Christmas friends!! I hope you all had a beautiful Christmas. I had waaaay too much fun with my family, and the day got away from me! So to make up for not posting yesterday, please enjoy this glimpse into last evening’s antics. Yes, it’s the Spice Girls. But no, for real, I decided toContinue reading Blackmail Material 🙂

From the viewpoint of a car in the snarl, all you can see are exhaust pipes and theContinue reading The Beauty of Humility
Lessons in da Club
OK, you seriously can’t make this stuff up, guys. ANOTHER weird incident happened at church yesterday. So, as you may recall, the last four Sundays, something peculiar has occurred at Mass. This time, it involved me calling 9-1-1. To refresh: #1: The homeless man who chugged the communion wine and exited with a ruckus. #2:Continue reading Lessons in da Club
Cherishing Time
It’s 7:30 am. In typical New York City fashion, there are sirens going outside. Nothing unusual. I woke up to snow blanketing the sidewalks and the streets below. It makes NYC seem softer. Less like the intimidating, eat-you-alive city that it is. My mom is visiting. We’ve been shopping, eating and enjoying our way thoughContinue reading Cherishing Time
Too Close for Comfort
Lately I feel as though I’m attracting some really bizarre situations. Everything from the homeless man that disrupted Mass after chugging the entire chalice of wine, to the literal miracle that took place last Sunday, and now to tonight’s caper…for some reason, weird stuff seems to follow me wherever I go. First, quickly, I justContinue reading Too Close for Comfort
