In the past couple of months, I've discovered quite a few things about myself, surprisingly, many of these things I already knew, but they have just resurfaced after what seems like forever.

Funny thing is, I was watching an episode of What Not to Wear on TV, not sure if it was new or old, but it dealt with a gorgeous girl from Jersey, a new mom of a 4 month old, who has lost herself. She was once… Continue

Family Friendly Working Blog Competition: Post a comment by 10am Friday to win a picture from Millybee http://bit.ly/h1ffa

Obviously, babies are made the way babies are made, and I won't get into a thorough discussion about it, since I was never really certain when my precious little Princess was actually created, but nevertheless, sometime at the end of June, I discovered I was pregnant.

It happened at Alice Fazooli's, a restaurant we had never gone to before but always wanted to, and we sat on the patio and ordered a bucket of Coronita's. The food was good, the sun was hot, and J and I were carrying on like usual… Continue

I remember while growing up, I often found myself bored. I remember a time where no matter how much I had going on in my life, I could be found wasting time, watching tv, listening to music and doing nothing else at all.

As a young girl, I was always looking forward to the next step of my life, and it could never come fast enough. In elementary school, I longed for the days of high school. In high… Continue

Hi Folks - sorry I haven't been around so much recently. Had a bit of a personal thing going on that I won't bore you with, which then led on to a bit of a journey of discovery!

After (the personal tragic stuff) I decided to go on a detox and I have documented the progress here http://www.lemondetoxdiary.com - so if you're ever interested in giving yourself a freshen up and regaining some purpose and clarity, I'd highly recommend it.

And now for som… Continue

If there's one lesson I've learned in my life, so far, that I can pass on to your wondrous ears (or eyes), is to never assume anything. Oh, you've heard this one before? Well, how often do you actually follow it?

I believe this to be one of life's most important lessons. When you assume something, anything, about anybody, you're also in danger of passing on some kind of judgement, which is also a faux pas in my eyes.

Case in point: last year I worked at a high end department store, the type th… Continue

After months of hard work and sleepless nights, I've made it to page one of Google for the search term "Jolly Phonics" I'll still have to keep working on it and know it's just as easy to go down again, but for today I'm happy that all my hard work has paid off. It hasn't been easy and many a day I've just wanted to throw in the towel.

For anyone reading this who doesn't know what… Continue
