When President Obama was sworn into office I was filled with an unbelievable amount of pride. He brought with him so much hope for the country. We all knew beyond any shadow of a doubt that Mr. Obama was going to be a president for all people. Now the Obama Presidency has come to an... Continue Reading →
In the City: I Love Pho
Some years ago, while working at the CDC, my coworkers were always boasting about the great restaurants on Buford Highway. This area is well known for many international food options to enjoy. The first time I took someone's advice to try a restaurant on Buford Highway, I was not impressed. The health department score was... Continue Reading →
In the City: Busboys and Poets
Last week I had the opportunity to try a new restaurant in Washington, DC. It is called Busboys and Poets. My cousin recommended that I check them out and after going, I see why she did. The place boasts positive energy and love, according to our server. They offer a host of food options. There... Continue Reading →
Christmas in Savannah
This year, I decided that the holidays would be spent very differently than what I am traditionally used to. For the Thanksgiving holiday, I spent time relaxing poolside in Orlando with family. I was not interested in slaving in the kitchen and then begging my kiddos to help clean up afterward. So, it worked out... Continue Reading →
New Year’s resolutions and other foolery
Like my fellow blogger, Cierra, the first thing I did when asked what I’m looking forward to in 2017 is took a long and deep breath. There is a huge presumption behind the question that you’re actually at a place of looking forward to anything. I’ve never been one for New Year’s resolutions, which we... Continue Reading →

In 2017, I’m looking forward to embracing CHANGE!
Living in 2016 taught me how to release the right amount energy to achieve goals. After midnight on December 31, 2015, I knew the year would be something to remember. Why? Because I was turning 50 in six months. My plans were to live life to the fullest and embrace whatever challenges in my path.... Continue Reading →
Am I Looking Forward to 2017?
2017 will mark the 30th year of life for me. Needless to say, I am absolutely dreading it. I'm not having a big party (as I have always envisioned) because my money is STILL funny and if I can't do it epically (new word I made up) then I don't want to do it at... Continue Reading →
Friendship Isn’t Easy
"The last thing you need is judgment when you are really trying to figure something out. We all need someone to talk to, to bounce ideas off of and get perspective." Twenty years late, I found Sex And The City and fell in love. I really don't know what I was doing when it was... Continue Reading →
