How Do You Define Luxury?
I remember when I was growing up in my hometown of Tifton Georgia and my parents would allow us to “eat out” at a local restaurant instead of meals made from our garden – I thought that was luxury. In my young mind, the pinnacle of Luxury was when my family of seven would pile…

Living My Life without a Friend
It is hard to believe that I have made it all the way to my fifties without having a true Friend. I know that sounds weird but it is true, now don’t get me wrong I have had the privilege of meeting some great people on my journey of life. People that I have laughed,…

Masks
At about 4:00PM, I realized that I had not started dinner but most importantly, I did not have, want or had the energy to chop, diced or stand over the stove to prepare dinner before my husband got home. My go-to meal when I am in this mood is a delicious rotisserie chicken from my…

Recharge
It is 12:00AM on Monday, April 13th, lavender oil diffuser sending relaxing and calming breezes thru out the air aiding in me to relax and prepare for another day. Since I have not been going to work I have been staying up later (I am somewhat of a night owl anyway). I am amazed that…

Stepping Out
Monday, March 16, 2020 was a normal day, at least I thought it would be. Alarm going off at 5:15AM, snooze until 5:30AM…not sure why I don’t just change the darn alarm until 5:30AM but I always have this grand idea that I am going to wake up to do yoga (Ok, I don’t actually do…
