Plan B
I feel bad for loving it as much as I do: working outside the home, away from my children. I am so happy to come home at the end of the day, scoop them up in my arms and reconnect, but the time away is so good for me. But then I worry whether it's good for them. I don't want to be selfish; I … [Read more...]
From My Closet – November 9th, 2011

I've been looking for such a shade for some time now... a change from my super-deep reds, which feel more wintery than this shade called "Storm." It's taupe-ish. It's grey-ish. It's purple-ish. It's … [Read more...]
Tressed Out.
Here I am. At the familiar impasse that I find myself in about every two years.To cut. Or not to cut.I have always had long hair. Well...with the exception of when my babysitter's daughter gave me a Mia Farrow haircut when I was 5.Oh and that time I thought a chin length bob would be a good cut for … [Read more...]
Getting to Know You…..
I was speaking to someone the other day about how personal these blogs can get. There isn't a whole lot that I won't share with you guys. The blogs that I love the most are the most personal ones - the ones where I can feel myself nodding my head going 'yup...i know this person.' … [Read more...]
