Saint's Row.....Who's In Line To Bring You Money?
I know I’ve written about this saint before but because the energies these days are all about fueling financial fears (and we can’t have that when we know better!) I thought I’d break out and expedite the Expedite  …   again. But, first (because it IS me…) my son and I are readying right now to go and get his dad from the hospital and take him home.  The...

MAKING AN ENTRANCE....Literally from guest blogger...
Our regular guest blogger Amanda Gibby Peters is weighing in today with some great ideas about the all important (quite critical really!) front entryway.  I can’t say enough about how timely these suggestions are especially timely during this skittish energetic period.  Hang on to your hats and fix your front doorbell, that way ALL OF US will have a smooth and easy ride through the next...

How Do I Spell Success? With a capital P....
Just in the door from the four hour drive back.  Would have left Alexandria to head back here to the Beach last night but NO ONE wants me on the road in the dark looking for signs to point me in the right direction.  Just trust me on that. And, as you may or may not know (since I’ve been shouting it from the house AND hilltops) my son’s travel lacrosse team took another entire...

Today's Cosmic Cross Eclipse from June in June!
From my astrologer..and just so you know, pretty sure that sun above was sitting on my shoulder yesterday afternoon.  It’s freakin’ hot! Okay stay safe and loved and the wonderful YOU I know you are! Here, now, June: There is a Full Moon Eclipse Saturday June 26th at 7:30 EDT and in a chart set for Washington, DC the Moon is in a very close conjunction to Pluto at 5 Capricorn. ...

Happy Town
So last night I’m sitting out in my backyard and I’m trying to regroup and seriously figure out how I’m going to manage the next few days and weeks.  Thank goodness Karen had Grayson sleeping over so I didn’t have to try to figure this all out with fourteen fourteen year olds chasing each other around my livingroom.  Anyway, I had spoken with Tom Benson and pre-pitched...

Why I'm Pro Protein
I guess because it’s wedding and graduation and, ultimately, bikini season I’ve been getting ALOT of emails lately about whether or not Feng Shui addresses losing weight.  And even though I’ve done these weight loss posts a couple of times now, I’m going to highlight some of the loser facts so I don’t have to answer each mail sitting and fattening up my inboxes. ...

Man's Best Friend...........
Over there on Facebook this morning somebody asked me who the saint was that was in charge of taking care of / healing the animal kingdom.  I immediately answered that I was pretty sure it was Saint Francis since that’s what I always learned growing up.  I had to run out right after that to go and take old pops to yet another bank so that we could get his statements (etc) transferred over...

First Day of Summer.....AND.... the rest of your...
Every single day we have incredible opportunities all around each one of us that will allow us to CHOOSE the life we want to live.  ALOT (and brother do I mean ALOT!) of those opportunities are created by what you say.  Literally, the words AND the sounds that come out of your mouth or even the ones that you surround yourself with make a GIANT GIANT GIANT difference between a life of bliss and...

A FENG SHUI FATHER'S DAY!
I have to make this quick since we are just in from today’s tournament games (won both…and NO ONE got benched or yelled at or……NO DRAMA..nope…. just some darn good lacrosse from some even better boys!) and are headed back out to Carter’s graduation from high school!  So, we’ll skip all the usual falderal and go straight to the good stuff: 1)   A metal...

Next Stop .... High School!
A moment of silence for the mom who can’t quite wrap her head around how her son became a man.  So soon.  I did give him breakfast in the Blues Clues bowl I used on his first day of Kindegarten.  He thinks I’m nuts.  I think I’m sad.  Off to be a road warrior today.  Parties, movies, tournament.  YES.  Another tournament.  But not before I inhale a gallon of orange essential...

DOG GONE IT!
One of our own popped by my Facebook page today asking why I don’t write more about animals in my blog posts?  I thought I did, but, maybe I’m thinking about those daily tips I write for iVillage? In any case, I did want to write something today about starting to put some protection in place for when those crap astro energies start to shift into gear next week, so, let’s kill...

LOOKING AHEAD.....
Once upon a time there was an olden but very, very wise man who thought and thought and thought about what would make all his other fellow humans feel fabulous and happy.  Safe and happy and blessed and good.  Yup, that’s what this man did.  He spent his thinking days and his pondering nights just ruminating on all the rest of his fellow human beings.  He was generous, compassionate and...

Anger Management.....
So first I was whining yesterday about the whole snafu that happened with my son during his lacrosse weekend and then this morning I see that celebrity blogger Perez Hilton has tweeted a photo of underage and 17 year old Miley Cyrus where he either photoshopped a vagina into a compromising photo of her or just blatantly took advantage and shared something non intentional and considered as...

I Cannot Tell A Lie...........
I’m thinking that I’m done with this whole lacrosse thing.  I’ve been doing it for years now and it’s starting to get really old.  Or I am.  Either way, these weekends are long and hot and there’s always some drama or another to attend to.  I mean, it all started out quite fine enough, but, isn’t that always the misleading way?  Friday afternoon Deb picked the...

The New La La Moon This Weekend~!
Firstly, let’s just get it out of the way….I MISSED the Real Housewives reunion last night!  Well, I didn’t as much miss it as I forgot about it!  ME!  Forgot about it!  See, it all started when I was coming back from the grocer late in the afternoon, where I had gone to stock up for the lacrosse weekend in Maryland that starts in about two hours.  Let’s just say that...

Money doesn't grow on trees...or does it?
Just a short while ago I posted a question on my Facebook page in regards to the new YouTube agenda.  Essentially I asked what topic I should ‘cover’ for my first video to go up on that site and essentially the answer was money.  The expression wasn’t overwhelming in that financial direction since, to be sure, there were/are a great deal of really great other answers there as...

Oh Dear God..............
SUPER STELLAR DAY!  TODAY!  And, so, of course, come close kids because I has me a story to share.  Actually, a few stories to share.  We’ll start with something close to me heart.  Money.  See, one of the reasons I initially left my failing marriage was because my baby daddy just sort of resolutely refused to do anything that would even be close to being called responsible where preparing...

Full SPEED Ahead!
So now I feel like the whole summer is speeding by and it hasn’t even officially started yet!  But Kath’s oldest, Peter Henry graduated from High School yesterday and since he’s essentially another one of my kids, now I’m feeling like maybe it’s not just the summer seemingly speeding by, but, maybe…just maybe…it’s my life that feels like that...

Jumpin' Jupiter!
Look, let’s face it, my personal astrologer June Collier can put things into perspective so much better than I can.  But, before I let her do just that….see the ‘glyph’ or the symbol that Jupiter is sitting on in the image in this post?  It looks like a 4 on acid?  Okay, get some cornmeal and NEXT TUESDAY mimic/make this same glyph with that cornmeal on the front entryway...

Say What?
Okay, those of you who have been around for awhile might have already heard this story but those new to the mix, well, I’m going to tell it again.  Because I can.  And because it’s worth it.  And because my morning today reminded me of it.  See, about a year and a half ago I was in discussions with The Simmons Jewelry Company to partner on creating a conscious raising line of bling...

Calgon, take me awaaaaaayyyy!
This is how I’ve spent my day so far today………….. Started out at 8 this morning with the A/C repair guys here to fix a leak that ONLY happens when I turn the air conditioning on.  They say that I need to call a plumber …  that the leak is emanating from one of my upstairs bathrooms.  Now, I might be blonde but how is it that the ONLY time the ceiling leaks is...

And, so, here we go.........
I have so much to say and so little time to say it in…as usual.  But, well, not really.  Old Pop’s fall from grace last week actually now looks to end his ability to go and live back home autonomously, even with home health and supervision of the private nursing variet. So, now, I have to go and educate myself what options Hospice might be able to offer.  I used to sit on the Board...
