Happy Valentine's Day! There is a lot that is amazing about love. Being in love. Or having a crush. All those stomach-flipping heart-beating-faster experiences are a fun, scary, exciting feeling. There's a whole world of emotional intimacy; and another world of physical intimacy (even a trilogy in print of the latter). I love it all. … Continue reading The Kiss

Elle Oh Vee E!
This week is Valentine's week so every post this week is going to focus on the "love" part of Life Love and Yoga. While I do think it's funny there is a holiday that exists for love - I think most girls secretly (or not secretly) like it when their guy does something special for … Continue reading Elle Oh Vee E!
Cold Turkey
December 31, 2008 That was the last time I ate at McDonald's. I'm sure my final meal was a Happy Meal because that was my favorite menu item. As a sales person on the road, McDonald's was located everywhere in my territory, had a good portion size (hence the Happy Meal) and was tasty. I … Continue reading Cold Turkey
I Love To Laugh
Ok, who here doesn't like laughing? Exactly. No one. Everyone loves a chuckle. A gutbuster. Cracking up. LMFAO. People can try to suppress a laugh. Or, people can have zero sense of humor. I for one, love it. But to know my humor is to be my humor. I'm not talking Mr. Bean or The … Continue reading I Love To Laugh
The Dating Game
A few weeks back, I wrote about house hunting. About Finding the One. I have now put in my fourth offer on a place and I seriously feel like I've hired Patty Stanger the matchmaker, as if I'm trying to find my husband. Here's how it goes down: Matchmaker: I think I've found a few … Continue reading The Dating Game
Regret-Me-Not
What is it "they" say? ... something like, "I don't regret anything, it made me who I am today." Right?? Sounds like hooey. Something some fake person made up whose regrets were like blips on life's radar. "I regret picking the blue sweater instead of the red one!!!" Boo. What's funny about it is... dammit, … Continue reading Regret-Me-Not
Be Afraid. Be Very, Very Afraid – Or Not.
"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." -- Franklin D. Roosevelt Today I went to a birthday party for a friend of mine. And I just adore her. No offense to my other friend-moms out there, but there are three friends of mine who I think are the most balanced, coolest moms … Continue reading Be Afraid. Be Very, Very Afraid – Or Not.
When Life Gives You Strawberries…
You take the damn strawberries. Oh, and you make strawberry lemonade out of it, yeah. I think one of the advantages of being a single girl is the ability to be exposed to so many great opportunities, experiences and things that don't require anyone's permission. You just do. You just go. So, when a couple … Continue reading When Life Gives You Strawberries…
Um, I Still Like Being the Girl
I went out with a guy friend once who said to me, "This is why you are single. You claim you want a guy to take care of you, yet you are way too independent and don't want to take care of the guy." Ok, back it on up herrrre. Yes, I am strong-willed. Yes, … Continue reading Um, I Still Like Being the Girl
Finding “The One”
The right house, that is. So, yeah, I'm trying to buy a place. The last time I bought a place was in 2001, which I subsequently sold in 2004, and jumped onto the rental bandwagon. Everything was going along fine in my rental house, then - something in me changed. I wanted to buy a … Continue reading Finding “The One”
