Tuesday was a great day. Last weekend was great. Moving the trip I had planned for this week to next week was great plan. This week was great. MY week was great. Lots of things happened in the world to make me frustrated with our government, country, and society (as defined by social mores). I…

2018 is the Year of Action
Despite my best laid plans for a year of clarity, I can’t say that 2017 really brought much. Then again, I embarked on a number of different journeys, each of which cleared up some things for me—earning my (E)MBA through Smartly (I still don’t know when/if you’re supposed to put the E there?), making career…

New You for the New Year
So I went “New Me” a little early for the new year thing, but I LOVE being blonde. It’s more strawberry blonde, almost reddish, but it’s a really fun change for me. You know I LOVE Pink Salon, but if you’re looking for something, well, more calm, you might try out Avant. A friend passed…
