It’s The Little Things…And How To Handle Them!

It’s The Little Things…And How To Handle Them!

It has been one of THOSE weeks.  A week when little annoyances just would not go away…they began to eat away at my joy on Tuesday and every day brought one bite after another.  From allergies to computer viruses to Spam Comments to money and just life, chomp, chomp, chomp… One thing I really like…

Green Curtains, Goodwill, and Oh Rhett!

Green Curtains, Goodwill, and Oh Rhett!

I suppose most of us remember the moment.  Movie making history.  Vivian Leigh, as Scarlett O’Hara, is at the end of her rope…..she has endured so much; yet, remains to be the strength of her family and the hope for her beloved plantation Tara.  She needs support and she needs it fast, so she must…

My Love Affair With Black

My Love Affair With Black

After such wonderful comments about wearing color, I almost hate to confess to the latter.  For some reason, when the weather is cold, my go to looks are mostly in BLACK.  I have heard all of the fashion advice about wearing browns and navy blue instead of black.  Supposedly, black is so harsh on our…

I joined Goodwill SA Marketing Manager, Melissa Mireles, this morning for an appearance on the Saturday morning news! Isn’t Melissa cute…she looks so great after having her second child this past October!

I AM WOMAN!

I AM WOMAN!

When you feel the need to whine about all that is going on around you, just remember, we are women…wired differently…able to multi-task by birthright…unfortunate for men, the poor dears, they just are not designed to handle doing several different jobs all at once!  (OK, be gentle in the comments) My life as a peaceful…
