**Please be aware that this post contains an image that may be triggering if you are in recovery from an eating disorder.** Well, Victoria Beckham is in some hot water this week. Yep, that Victoria Beckham. Equally known for her previous life as the enviable Posh Spice, and her status as David Beckham’s ridiculously fashionable wife. Honestly,Continue reading “Girl Power”
Before I begin tonight, I just wanted to say thank you to those of you who emailed me this weekend about my ebook, “My Blogging Tips.” Apparently revamping/growing your blogs is a popular New Year’s resolution, and I’m thrilled that you found my ebook helpful in that department! This blog would be remiss if IContinue reading MLK in 2018
The Golden Globes were last night. Just in case your phone died, your power was out, or you’ve had no contact with the outside world in the last 24 hours. And, unpopular opinion alert: watching the whole thing, I kind of felt a little bit, oh, sick to my stomach. Seeing the uber wealthy celebsContinue reading Oprah and the Golden Globes Sham
So I’m leaving for Chicago tomorrow. Just staying over for one night, and then back to NYC tomorrow. But I’m going because my dad is receiving an award…the Man of the Year Award, from an international organization, so I’m going there to sit in the audience and cheer him on. So dad, if you’re readingContinue reading On Guard
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
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
There’s a perspective that you gain with time. There are things that you see when you’re out of the thick of the moment. Kind of like when the news cuts to a helicopter-view of a traffic jam. From the viewpoint of a car in the snarl, all you can see are exhaust pipes and theContinue reading The Beauty of Humility
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
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
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
