Ok, so I’m stealing this concept — I read Commencement (something I recommend everyone should read, no matter how long ago you graduated!)the summer I graduated (June 2010) and realized that the author totally had it figured out. Life, especially life right after college, is like being in college all over again — so she [...]
My mom started talking about the Mommy Wars the other day — or at least the latest incarnation of it between Ann Romney and Hilary Rosen — and it got me thinking. My mother is a very successful attorney, something that I am now quite proud of, but it wasn’t always that way. When I [...]
I stuck crow last night. For a whole three breaths. This may not seem like an accomplishment to you, but to me, it is. I’ve been trying to stick crow since I walked into the now defunct Ananda Center last March. It seemed so easy; I’m strong, I can lift cases of water and handle [...]
February is a great time to evaluate what you’re planning to co-create this year and try to plan out how you’ll accomplish the rest of your list throughout the year. How are you doing on your co-creating journey this year? A friend said that February is really a great time to reset because the holidays [...]
Ahhh New Year’s, you’ve snuck up on me again. Actually, JK, I’ve been looking at you for the past ten weeks. What did I accomplish in this #10to2012 blog challenge of mine? I learned to be less rigid, follow through even more than I already do and to be kinder to myself. And also to [...]
Well, I know I missed a post last week, but let me explain — it was one heck of a week. I reevaluated some goals and added some new ones for 2012. 2012 is going to be a year of self-discovery and good things!! I have found a new apartment complex (where I want to [...]
Ah the beginning of another month. December, that cold-hearted beotch is back. She’s here to rub it in our ruby-red noses that we’re single, cold and tired. That another year has passed us by and that despite the accomplishments we’ve had, we haven’t done nearly as much as we thought we would this year. She’s [...]
Ahh Thanksgiving, we meet again. You are, at times, the bane of my existence. You ask me to eat and eat until I feel like the bird we stuffed in the morning. This year, however, this year I have the upper hand. I am now a health nut and YOU WILL NOT CRACK ME!!! I’m [...]
I love all of my yoga teachers — each of the four wonderful ladies at YogaFlex in Commack, N.Y. has something different to offer. Dana offers a bit of a dance and determination with her practice; Karen always has a fun, quirky tidbit to start off class (and she always reminds me to be patient); [...]
Life, a wise person once told me, is like the lazy river at a water park. Some people sit in their rafts and float on by, basking in the sun and cool breezes. Others push and push until they end up stuck in one corner or another and have to hop into the pool to [...]
