Happy Friday and happy Halloween! Are you dressing up for Halloween this year? I will not dressing up…..unless I get invited last minute to a party. For me personally, I think it’s fun to dress up in a costume, especially for a party, but I don’t particularly feel the need to. It’s not really my thing but I will do it and have fun. And when I do dress up it’s mostly generic costumes like a witch where I already have a black dress or a girl scout and I can wear my old vest. I think I have only purchased a costume twice in my adult life. Actually I enjoy making my own costume. One year I went as a Tiffany’s box and had more fun crafting the costume than wearing it — wearing a box in a bar is not easy. Anyway, I may not be dressing up for Halloween but I sure do enjoy seeing all of my friend’s kids, and my nieces, dressed up! Kids dressed up as Ted Lasso is perhaps my favorite costume I have seen. It’s funny and so cute!! (more…)

Happy Friday! Are you still feeling the effects of Mercury in retrograde? To be honest I do not fully understand what it means, and have never felt anything when people talk about it. However, this time around I felt it and am still feeling the aftermath days after it ended. After googling, I found it’s called the “shadow period”; it can linger for weeks prior and after Mercury retrograde. Sounds fun. Obviously nothing earth shattering has happened, just your typical Mercury retrograde affecting my technology and a few miscommunications with work. Hopefully the lingering shadow period will end soon for me. (more…)

Happy Friday! This was one of those weeks where everything was coming at me, yet I maintained in high spirits. By the miracle of God, I did not falter. Growth. It was a week of blessings, family, and recovery. God, life, my body was telling me to slow down and relax. To take care of myself first and foremost. (more…)

Happy Friday! It’s finally starting to feel like fall here in New York. I’ve been running around the city wearing my new half-zip pullover and enjoying the cooler temperature. This week was a busy one and I definitely felt the effects of Mercury in retrograde. (more…)
