That Hair

This is me at three months old. I was born with a full head of hair and it never fell out. I've had lots of dark hair ever since. My hair has been medium or long since I was a kid, and it has always been thick and prone to tangling. It was long all...

Looking back at 2014

Early last year I made another set of goals for 2014...And I didn't really think much about them after that. Have I mentioned that 2014 got really busy? Looking at the list, I'm a little disheartened, but I have to remind myself that the point of my goals was/is to help me focus on the...

Thirty Three

(it got a little squished, but this chocolate fudge mini cake from JaCiva's was DELICIOUS.) On occasions like birthdays, it's always interesting to take a moment and contemplate and compare life with the previous one. Last November 1, I lived in Brooklyn and had been working as a 'consultant' for my company for a just...
