Firstly, I get that writing about a topic like this (when 75% of my friends are parents) could be social suicide.

Secondly, full disclosure here, I am not a parent. … Continue reading Why American Parents Drive Me Nuts
Well, officially, Aussie hasn't left US soil. But he will be on his way out of town shortly.

While on my vacation getaway to Thailand, I made a lot of new friends (as indicated in some of my previous posts). One such friend I neglected to mention. I will take the opportunity to do so now. The Aussie arrived about two days before the end of the trip and accidentally inserted himself into … Continue reading FOMO
No Vanna or Pat here, sorry! No, today's post is about two things- Wheel Pose (Urdhva Dhanurasana) and being fortunate... i.e. gratitude. I wanted to bring this up today because everyday this week I've been feeling lots of love. Appreciation. Gratitude. We so easily want to see the things/people we don't have while completely being … Continue reading Wheel of Fortune

I am going to venture to guess 99% of you are going to ignore this and any other post about The Bachelorette. So this post is really for the 1% ers. No, not those 1% ers. I missed a couple of weeks of Emily Maynard and crew while I was away in Thailand. I only … Continue reading Bach is Back Bermuda Style
The first time I read The Secret Garden by Francis Hodgson Burnett, I was in elementary school.
