I confess that when I watched the first season of Mad Men, I couldn’t understand what the big hype was about. Sure, the costumes were spectacular and nostalgia for this era was understandable, but I believed the plot and storyline were a bit too dry for my taste. But I kept watching, and boy, am […]
One of the steps I am taking on my road to recovery is to exercise — not only for the physical benefits, but for the added endorphines as well. As mentioned in a previous post, my doctors have recommended yoga to help my neck heal and as a way to help me relax. I also […]
Thank you all for all your kind comments and messages regarding my last post on depression. I am doing better, but I believe that we are still a long ways to go to start feeling like my normal self again. My therapist is encouraging me to partake in activities I once enjoyed, and to take […]

Ever since I became a mother of “two under two,” I have received a few requests for a “Day in the Life” post, detailing what a typical day is like for me. Better late than never, right? 😉 This post chronicles the first half of Monday, April 2, 2012. Claire had just turned 18 months […]
I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the "About" page.
