I’m always on the look-out for a “throw-on” jacket that doesn’t look like hobo wear. This one comes in a nice weight – not too heavy but just substantial enough to provide some structure and warmth. I like the length (I’m 5’7, so it doesn’t consume me) because it doesn’t do what shorter jackets do ..read more

I was a kid many, many moons ago. What planet has the most moons? That’s how many moons old I am. BUT, I remember quite well what it was like to be a kid; and most of all, I remember what books made the biggest impression on me. See, I was the girl who wore ..read more

Strange to think I used to update this blog almost daily. And now, I’m hard-pressed to upload even an annual post. Looking back at my last entry in November 2020, it’s tough to believe that just a few days past that, my dad entered the hospital and a whirlwind many months followed, ending with his ..read more

Fancy this. It’s been well over five years since I’ve written in this space. From then to now, I’ve put my words elsewhere – in ads, in marketing copy, in corporate blogs.

{My mom died 18 years ago today. Forgive the maudlin?} I enter the muted waiting room as I’ve done year after year: nervous, winded after trying to find parking, praying. I take a seat at the desk as an empathetic female volunteer takes my ID and health history. Any breast cancer in the family ..read more

About 47 months ago in blog years (last June), the kids and I and The Rock took a trip to New York to visit with my siblings. My brother, Marky, and other brother, Dane, recently bought and remodeled a house on Long Island and they, my sister, and I, along with our respective families, convened on the home ..read more

I’ve been all over the Netflix this past month. I mean, ALL OVER. No genre has been safe. Documentary? I’m coming for you. Lifetime movie from 2011? Lock your doors. Teeny-bopper spookfest? Ding dong! I don’t know what July was all about for me. Schizophrenia, maybe. Or inability to make decisions. Or super-ability to ..read more

Upon looking back on one’s life, one might marvel at how he (or she) survived certain events. For instance, one’s 46-year-old self may wonder why his (or her) 18-year-old version got into a Tijuana stranger’s car at 2AM in a drunken bid to get back to the U.S. before curfew. Or a person may rethink ..read more

Booger composes her outfits like a symphony. Each element fuses to the whole and results in a perfectly constructed blend of beauty. Somehow, in her hands, stripes go with plaid, and scarves go with summer. Her masterpieces take time and plenty of brainstorming, but she approaches each wardrobe arrangement with a positive attitude and heaping ..read more
