It's been a while since we've chatted hasn't it! I snuck away for a few weeks for a much needed ahhhhhhhhh. Vacation. We all need it once in a while. There's something about unplugging from your environment, releasing your responsibilities for a while, and letting your mind run wild and free to just not worry about a thing. That's what I did. And I encourage you to to some how find a time and place where you can find serenity and … [Read more...]
Summer Isn’t Over Yet
The world in which I live, a lot of kids will be going back to school next week. NEXT WEEK! I'm like seriously? Summer isn't over yet! It's still SUMMER PEOPLE! It's still BLISTERING hot! My kids still have another month. And for the rest of the world, many people's "holiday" begins mid July and goes into August. So really, even though we're seeing fall stuff already, summer ain't over. I have to admit I'm a beach girl. I'm drawn to … [Read more...]
Playing Dress Up On the Beach

For those of you who might … [Read more...]

Dreaming of….
Sometimes we're go go go... and after it's a go go go we need to take a break to just breathe... Not because we're out of breath, but because we have MORE good stuff to come... and we need a break to simply gather our thoughts, reset, refresh and recharge....

Take Me To The Beach Friday
This weekend marks the official end of summer. But, in some ways, I wish it still were summer, don't you? (Where I live, we are in the sweltering heat of 100, so it doesn't feel like fall yet, trust me!) Who doesn't want to kick some sand around and be at the beach all day??? I know that is one of my favorite things because I let go of everything and escape. So today I'm inviting you with me to Avithos Beach in Kefalonia in Greece. Sit back, … [Read more...]
