Letting it all hang out.
Time Flies
Time flies when you are having fun and time drags you down when you aren’t. I suddenly realized I haven’t added a blog post since I lost my firstborn cat. And what a year it has been. In the middle of the COVID pandemic I lost my job. It was for the best and I…
Saying Goodbye
I am heartbroken. Unlike the passing of my ex-husband, saying goodbye to my OG kitty earlier this week was heartbreaking. Take my breath away and ugly sob so her sweet little head was soaked with my salty tears heartbreaking. I wanted a pet for years, but I couldn’t have one because I travelled so much…
And Just Like That
This week one of my favorite shows launched a reboot. Sex and the City used to end every episode with those iconic words – And just like that. Through the years I have said those words – or a variation of them including “Well that just happened.” I received a phone call yesterday telling me…

I am full of contradictions – as are most of you I am sure. But when you have to spend several hours each day talking about yourself, those contradictions become incredibly vivid. At least they do for me. I hope those contradictions don’t peek their head out during the interview process. Let’s just concede that…
When Someone Shows You …
I was listening to the Rob Lowe podcast Literally yesterday and Oprah was his guest. It is a great podcast, by the way, but one thing about that episode has stuck with me.
