Everyones doing it! Cleaning closets, getting rid of stuff you don’t use, going through storage totes of crap, clearing out the file cabinet. Yes, I still have a small black file cabinet of papers that are important car receipts, courtroom and divorce papers, doctor papers and random stuff that I hold because I think I…

Pandemic Homeschooling is Not Real Homeschooling
It was announced this past Friday that schools in New York are officially closed for the rest of the year. It comes to no surprise to me and the kids; we already discussed the probability of that happening. And they aren’t bothered in the least, taking the news really well; almost enthusiastically. My college kids…
Restoring Hope 🙏🌎💕
I need to get my hope restored. I need my faith refreshed. I’m feeling a bit in despair. The past couple days have taken a toll on my worldview. Between being home 95% of the time, keeping updated with the virus, trying to follow what science and facts say versus the Buffoonery on both sides…
6 Weeks and No End in Sight
We’ve been in lockdown, quarantine, social distancing, whatever you want to call it for a month and a half. Nothing is changed much personally…still not working, lots of reading, working out, but now getting a little lazier and not keeping up with my routine for the past two weeks. Starting to feel the lack of…
Wine Re-port: Cupcake Vineyards Red Velvet
Being a lover of Red Blends, today I’m trying Red Velvet from Cupcake Vineyards. Examining the bottle I could not find the vintage year. I bought it based on three things: the attractive label, that it is a blend and that it is under $10. Single moms on a budget understand being frugal. The label…
Our New Reality, For Now
When I came home from my mini vacation a few weeks ago, I arrived to a different, not new, but not normal way of life that I was currently used to. I am by no means the only one…millions of people…either displaced or unemployed as I am upon my return; overworked like the healthcare systems,…
Serenity Now?!
I had a chance to get away last weekend, so I took it. It was the beginning of the craziness when the coronavirus was hitting us in early March. It was a Monday, talking to my friend at work. She says “I have the place and the car, you just need to get to there…
I Do Like Turtles, Thanks for Asking 🐢❤️
So I stopped for a drink on my way home at a local haunt where I know the owner and bartender and everyone is pretty friendly. Only reason I did stop is because my kids are on break and I know they are still up playing videogames so it’s not a quiet house. So I…
Oh, Ricky, You’re So Fine….
I have always enjoyed watching the award shows since I was a young girl. Except the Tonys….wasn’t in tune with theater…get it?! And I loved seeing the performances and the wardrobes but mostly I enjoyed the hosts. They made the show. Monologues, jokes… keeping me entertained while maintaining flow of the show. Billy Crystal hosted…
20/20 Vision 🧐
Happy New Year! It’s really not a big deal anymore. It’s just another day, another year. The eve was fun back in the day when I was in my youth and would party and no responsibility. Even when my kids where younger, we had people over the house for a little festivities Now, I worked…
