Last week was bad. This week is better. I’m happy with that progress. Before heading to Bronxville for her shower, Kathleen suggested we meet for a glass of champagne – it was a celebration, after all! Since we were leaving out of Grand Central, we thought there was no better place to meet than the…

When your Monday workday ends at 1 AM, your week isn’t off to the best start. It’s been a rough one so I’m very happy we’re close to the weekend. On the bright side, I have the most supportive friends, family, and boyfriend. When this week tore me down, they swooped right in to build…

Like last week, this week has been incredibly busy. I decided to cancel my event on Tuesday so I could have some time de-stress and run some much-needed errands. Sure, I missed a movie screening, but the time playing catch-up was exactly what I needed. Plus, I am FULLY in the Holiday spirit now. The…
