I’m Beginning to Think I Might Be a Little Too Old For This

I’m far too exhausted to sit down and do a recap worth anything.  Instead, here’s a little audio clip with some thoughts. Am I Getting Too Old For This? (I haven’t yet gotten the MP3 player to work, so feel fee to click the link and go directly to the page to listen…it’s only a couple [...]

What’s Better Than a Free Mani/Pedi?

I can think of two things…1) knowing that because it was free, I was able to make a donation to the Susan G Komen organization and 2) having a free mani/pedi that actually lasts longer than usual (by my mani-standards anyway). The other day I received a fun little email from my teaching assistant.  Turns out [...]

Abraham on Manifesting a House

I just love this. It really explains the how behind the whole manifestation process. Let’s bring on that house… SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Abraham on Manifesting a House", url: "http://labloggergal.com/2009/09/22/abraham-on-manifeting-a-house/" });

Who You Calling a Klutz?

Oh, me. Yeah, I guess that could be true.  I have been known to trip over my own two feet.  It seems I can’t go for a walk in the neighborhood without stumbling or tripping over something – usually uneven sidewalks, unseen curbs (don’t ask) or sprinkler heads. It’s gotten to the point that my husband [...]

Makeup Primers, Oh How I Love Thee

I’ve known about makeup primers for a couple years now. I remember before I moved out here to LA, my girlfriend was in love with a particular primer (I don’t think Smashbox had their product out just yet). She’d pick up a new tube any time she came out here to LA. [...]

Talk About What Not to Wear

Did you ever have one of those days where you were totally focused at home, working like a worker bee, lounging about in well, lounge wear? I had no intention of leaving the house. I mean, I had work to do so it didn’t really matter what I was wearing, right? I’m sure you [...]

In Response to My RSVP Rant

I realize that my RSVP rant from the other day might have sounded like I was passively aggressively calling people out.  Trust me, I wasn’t.  Really, I’m just ranting about the RSVP process as a whole and all the seeming frustration its creating. The lack of any response thing is just something that I don’t [...]

It’s Almost That Time

Yes…it’s almost my 40th birthday! Holy cow, I can’t believe I’m going to be 40.  Remember when you were just a kid and forty just seemed OLD.  Well according to Sephora (and their Beauty Insider email), I’ll be 40 in less than two weeks. Oh.My.God!  Less than two weeks! Maybe we should put a little perspective in [...]

This Teaching Thing Seems to Be Kicking My Ass

Well, not the actual teaching. I’m actually loving being back in the classroom and working with the kids. In fact, they kids even commented on the fact that I wasn’t there last Thursday and filled me in on what they’ve been up to. What’s kicking my ass though are the early hours. You [...]

Looking for Make-Ahead Recipes

Calling all my cooking friends… A good friend of mine is about due to have baby #2. I don’t believe they need much, so I figured instead of a gift they probably don’t need, I’d make them some food. I figure this will make things easier for them and will be much appreciated. I’m thinking about [...]
