Ways to Enjoy Fall
While I was in the hospital in September, a disorienting thing happened: it really started to transition to fall.

Black and Gold Nail Therapy

There’s gotta be some therapeutic value in that, right? Trust me, there definitely is. Plus, the food at home beats hospital food […]
Lost Time
Hello friends. Have you been wondering why I went totally MIA for the past week? So am I, to some extent. I know the general overarching reason: Last Sunday morning while on my Vespa my husband and I collided with a car that ran a red light. I literally have no memory of these events, […]
