I Don’t Want To Grow Up

January 6, 2011

In one week, I will say goodbye to my twenties. I’m not sure how to feel quite yet, but I can say I do not feel old! My years may be pushing middle-age (eek!), but I feel way too young to be a mother, I always get carded, and I still shop in the juniors […]

Cowfish: Take 2

January 5, 2011

It would be nice if the first week back after vacation was nice and easy, but that has not been the case. As many of us know, the holidays are a time when we visit family, and with family comes dysfunction and distress. Therefore, as a therapist taking time off over the holidays, I returned […]

Happy NYE!! My morning began just like any other: Alarm goes off at 6AM. I think, “Who am I kidding” and hit snooze. Two hours later I wake up with a houseguest curled up on my chest. (My day could end here and I’d be complete. ) Then I paint my nails with in a […]

Today I was bound and determined not to get sucked into Gossip Girl like I did yesterday. It helped to have an early running date with Caitlin which turned into a running + eyebrow waxing + Starbucks date. With my workout out of the way (and fabulous eyebrows!), I showered and decided to get my […]
