“For me, I knew it was time to take a break from social media when it became mudane and a chore to weed through my feed a few times a day. For a long time I looked forward to hearing about the good things that were happeing with my friends and family, rejoicing in their triumphs and touchtone moments, lending support, encouragement when someone needed it, even shedding a tear when someone lost a parent, a spouse, a child. It made me feel like I was being a friend and part of a close knit family.

Antiques. Fine Wine. Old.
I have a confession to make. I am committed to growing old gracefully, to obliterating and diminishing, any wrinkle that shows up on my face, to keeping my hair, long, free of grays, perfectly colored and coiffed, to stay youngish…relevant, ME!

Fuck Feelings. They Make a Pill For That
WARNING….Crazy Chic Rant…..
“We are not even through the first week of the new year and if one more person utters the words, New Year, New Me, I am going to lose my shit. It isn’t that I don’t appreciate anyone making the effort, it’s just that sooner or later we all are compelled, nudged, and bitch slapped, into making some sort of change, either because we have reached a turning point, we have a health crisis, or we just plain feel it with every fiber of our being that it needs to be so.”
