Through The Tulips

I’ve decided that I’m going to try to better utilize the time I’ve been given in a day and attempt to get up earlier in the mornings. Granted, I don’t get up ‘late’, but I”m definitely not a morning person, so I’m going to attempt 6:30 in the morning. It’s not going to be easy, [...]

I don’t think I’ll ever forget when I heard on the news that Hurricane Katrina was expected to make landfall in New Orleans. Anyone from the Coastal area knew that a Category 3 hurricane had the potential to wipe out New Orleans if the levy’s broke, but here was Katrina, the monster storm headed towards [...]

You may think that this entry is going to be about Marcel or one of my True Blues, but in fact this is about none other than Me, Myself, and I.   Over the  years I’ve learned that I can’t depend on other people to always be on the sidelines cheering for and supporting me, and [...]

Since I forgot it in the previous entry- I wanted to take a moment out of this day and reflect on a few of the things I’m grateful for today. May this encourage or inspire you to do the same, and if you wish- feel free to share a few things you’re grateful for in [...]

I’ve been thinking quite a bit about Autumn. Even though the temps are still somewhat warm, I have noticed a different type of ‘cool’ in the evening air. There is a crispness about it, that is the sign that Autumn is coming. I’ve noticed that boots have hit the store shelves, and I’ve been eying [...]

As I mentioned earlier in the week, life has taken a really busy turn for me, so my time to blog has diminished somewhat. Unfortunately with that also went the time that I have to read blogs, but never fear, once I find myself more in a routine, I am sure I can strike a [...]

You may remember me mentioning in a previous entry about how I was attempting this experiment with a bottle of OPI nail polish that Samantha had left me when she headed home from her trip here. I’d worn it on my toes for more than a month, without it chipping or peeling, and ended up [...]
