You Look Ridiculous…
3:49 PM I have a salad. I also eat enough fresh baked crusty bread for five women. A girl’s gotta compensate while watching the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Pfft. I’d like to offer some excuse. I’ve had children. I’m old. I have so much work to do. I’m busy. But the truth is, eliminate every… Continue reading You Look Ridiculous…
Now Is The Time…

A Little Christmas Contest…
4:11 PM A little holiday cheer crossed my desk yesterday in the form of a contest. It's a first but I'm thinking it might be a catalyst for how much good can be accomplished between now and the Christmas holiday.

Boys Get Embarrassed…
Well, well, well. For all their bravado, it seems our boys are a little embarrassed by sex toys as well. For those not up to speed, about a month ago The Fixer, my business, personal and all things betterment advisor gave me exercises to eject me full force from the box.
