Oh NYC, how I’ve missed you! I came in for a shoot this morning, which finished early. Placing me smack dab in midtown in the afternoon; right before the mad dash of suits leave the office for the day and clog the streets with over polished dress shoes and designer menswear. It’s was one ofContinue reading Little Space, Big Perspective
Welp, I got scammed. Swindled. They say a sucker’s born every minute, and well, that sucker…was me. *Sigh* I am not proud of this. But alas, here goes… Ever since my mom’s stroke, I’ve always thought that it would be a good idea to get a dog. A little source of positivity running around at ourContinue reading Scam Alert
I’m going to say something and I really hope it doesn’t come off as insensitive….But… Old people love me. Hear me out. First of all, I’m not talking about people who are 50 or 60…because hey…that’s young! I’m talking 90s. OLD. But I’m going to be honest, they flock to me. Drum up conversations likeContinue reading Lessons from a 91 Year Old
So I spent the weekend at the beach. Well…scratch that…I spent an hour at the beach, and the rest was at my cousin’s wedding. But I’ll tell you what, an hour was all I needed. And I’m not talking about getting sufficiently burnt to a crisp. Because, you better believe that I’ve got a medical gradeContinue reading Finding Life’s Sand Dollars
I’ve spent a lot of time recently in my own head. Today marks the three month mark since my mom’s stroke, and there have been a lot of ups and a lot of downs. And I’m learning a lot. And honestly, I’m learning a lot about God’s love for us. We’ve reached the stage in myContinue reading A Love that Lets Go
You know what I love? I love when you’re watching or reading something for the 100th time, and then all of a sudden something “clicks” and it’s as though you’re seeing it brand new, with fresh eyes. That happened to me today. At church. We were reading the Lazaraus story, where Jesus raises Lauzarus fromContinue reading The Stench
*sigh* This post is going to be difficult to write. The saying goes, never judge a person until you walk a mile in their shoes…or something like that. And I’ve learned over the years that as much as I hate those cliched little nuggets, they actually hold a lot of truth. Stand the test ofContinue reading Seeing RED
I’m writing this post after two vodka/sodas. And if you know anything about me, then you know…I am properly pissed. #LightweightForLife I actually have never written a tipsy blog post before. Believe it or not, even the Feminism post was written stone cold sober. Stone Cold Steve Austin…I wonder what that dude is up toContinue reading Tipsy Typing
Today was a bit surreal. I feel a bit like I’m living someone else’s life. Being back in New York after my mom’s stroke, even though just for the weekend, it’s hard to believe that this was my life for almost six years. It feels so foreign after nearly three months of being home withContinue reading Revival
Lately, it’s been really weird to be a woman. Not because of any fashion or makeup trends…although, I will say…I don’t quite understand the reemergence of the shoulder pad. But because of all the recent hyper focus on…feminism. The Women’s March, International Women’s Day, protests, walk outs, I mean, we get it already… But to be honest,Continue reading Challenging Feminism
