It's "Only in a Woman's World"

I absolutely love the summer. I remember as a child, as soon as April hit, I would start counting down the days until the last day of school. I knew, after that (which was usually somewhere around June 20 (something), the pool club my family belonged to would be open. The sun. The pool. The [...]

“Except for the…”

I have a little philosophical advice to pass along push on to you this morning. It’s about positive thinking. And about how unnerving and frustrating it is to be around a constant half-full quarter-full person. I certainly understand a downer observation, reaction or moment… but then there are the people who I call the “Excepts.” [...]

Interviewing Kelly Ripa for Greener Days

I have always loved Kelly Ripa. Loved her. From her days as Hayley on All My Children, to seeing her nearly every day when I interned at ABC’s The View during the summer of 1999… to seeing her become Regis’ sidekick Monday through Friday on Regis and Kelly. She’s always been someone I’ve admired and [...]

The Pearl.

I have been asked this over and over and over again…. and I think it’s such a fantastic question for us mothers trying to find some “key” and “staple” jewelry pieces. “What is the most flattering and must-have piece of jewelry to own?” For me, it’s all about the Pearl. Classic. Elegant. Beautiful. And Pearls [...]

Charmed

A long, long time ago, on my 14th birthday, I received a silver charm bracelet with a little engraved charm on it.  It was from a boy.  I’m sure as I’m sitting here that the boy’s mom had something to do with the little gift, but it didn’t diminish the thought one little bit.   [...]

Snaptotes

I’m a bag girl. Always have been, always will be. I remember, even as a child, I needed to have 2 backpacks for school and some sort of tote… crazy, I know. But I would love to change things up a bit. So needless to say, I’m always on the lookout for new and stylish [...]

Vacation Footwear

Yesterday, I received a GREAT question from a reader about “vacation shoes.”  I’m looking forward to posting my answer today since I’m heading to Florida in a couple of weeks and will be wearing shorts/capris and doing a TON of walking! Question: What footwear do you recommend wearing on vacation in the summer when you [...]

Strawberry Shortcake

Today is my mom’s birthday.  She is 84 years young!  I picked her up at around noon and Jane and I took her to a cute little restaurant for lunch… just the 3 of us.  She ordered a burger, which is unusual for her because she is the original picture of health.  You know, chicken [...]

Fitness Apparel – Great quality, amazing price

I’ve been working out a lot lately. The one thing that I’m constantly on the lookout for is workout clothing. GOOD workout clothes. Stuff that I can run and walk and bike in… comfortably. Danskin’s line at Walmart has some amazing selections at affordable prices. Danskin’s line is feminine, fashionable and (very) comfy. I’ll continue [...]

Listen to your blessings…

I was headed out for a run this morning when I realized that my iPod had not been charged in awhile. This didn’t bother me for me, but rather for Jane, who would be using my iPod later on her 20-mile run.  Jane is training for a full marathon (May 3rd – 3 weeks from [...]
