This topic is near and dear to me. As a kid I was never an athlete. Didn’t like team sports. Couldn’t run, jump or catch. Finally in my 20’s I started working out like Jane Fonda. Aerobic classes were much more my style. I was modeling at the time and knew if I was to continue doing swimsuit work I’d better find something to keep the “bottom line” in place! As t... Read More »
The last few weeks have been very difficult.. my mama’s boy, my baby dog, my shadow, my lil’ Butchie has crossed the Rainbow Bridge. The day before Easter of 2014 he had an episode, not quite a seizure but more serious than his typical dramatic exhausted collapse, you see Butchie was my drama queen/little clown. Of course, we were out of town on vacation and he seemed to bounce right... Read More »
I love my Keurig 2.0 machine, but I do not drink coffee. One feature that I especially love, aside from the sleek design and pretty colored lights that it brings to the kitchen, is that my Keurig can give me hot water on demand to make my black or chai tea every morning.

Since my wife so delicately pointed this out to me several months ago, I have been ca... Read More »

On the flight from Dallas to Kahului, I sat horizontal from a couple from New... Read More »

My Psoriasis is only skin deep. My skin won’t stop me because… It’s just skin and it’s only surface deep. I am beautiful, even with my pink/white spots. My daughter looks up to me and I need to be a strong role model for her and teach her that it’s inner beauty that counts. Here’s my story: Just prior to my first Psoriasis outbreak, I was at a peak... Read More »
I owe my friend Tia… big time! She found a GEM today and I’m so excited to share it with all of you! I’m constantly downloading entire photo albums from groups on Facebook to share in other groups. Mostly this is done when I see an awesome idea on one of our Thirty-One Director or Consultant groups and I want to share the ideas with my team. It can take for-ev-er (did anyone else just have a “Sand... Read More »
