A long time ago I used to love throwing dinner parties. I enjoyed cooking “non-traditional” dishes and having people just sit and chat at a small table. One time I went through with a dinner even though a hurricane had just ripped through the neighborhood a few hours […]
Today is a day in which I hope to get some rest and decompress. With that said, I’m going to try to avoid watching the news. I’m sure I’ll catch a little here and there. I’ll also try to avoid anymore of the Will Smith and Chris Rock […]
Monday, Monday. Running around with coffee in hand, putting my bag together and applying makeup. Looking for the right jewelry to wear. Thinking of what I should bring or do for lunch. Not thrilled by my lunch choices. My earband sinuses still hurt. I take my antibiotic. Finish […]
