Can we call a duck a duck or do we need to see what his wife is wearing first?
Over the weekend I came across this image of Ben Carson and his wife.The caption read “She’s no first lady” and had a side by side comparison of our POTUS and the stunning Michelle Obama.

C is for Communicate
I’m a communicator. Plain and simple, it’s both a gift and a curse. I say what I mean and I mean what I say. Do I ever say the wrong thing? Of course, but I didn’t say it behind your back and I wasn’t passive aggressive in my delivery. Nothing is left in question! This…

I swear, I thought MY friends were friends for life! My mom told me when I was young that I would lose friends. That it wouldn’t be some dramatic break up, it would just happen. “Sometimes people just grow apart, Jenny.” She was right. It’s just that way with some friends. You lose touch, find…
Boob Tube Murder and the Addition of Time
I made a commitment to myself to keep my blog updated. My initial commitment was to make 30 posts in 30 days. Then, I decided that I would commit to maintaining my blog with “regular content”. I wasn’t sure how often “regular” would mean to me, but as of right now, I’ve added content nearly…

Easy vs. Complicated
I read an article recently that explained “Why men don’t choose complicated women”. It’s stuck with me a bit… I think I’m a complicated woman, and I’ve been chosen so… I mean, sure, we chose each other but still. The article referred to the relationship between Carrie Bradshaw and Mr Big, and how he chose…
Meninism isn’t “a thing”. Hashtag that.
I’ve been seeing a lot of memes rolling around out there that are hash tagged #meninism. They usually involve women acting stupid or obscene with an incapacitated man. I do not condone any behavior that is meant specifically to humiliate or degrade anyone…. But meninism? C’mon guys what is that about? Are you feeling a…
