I didn’t even realize that exactly 3 months ago today, I started my celery juicing and liver cleanse. So has it worked to get rid of my rash? Well, you decide for yourself: here is my current before and after photos. If only I bothered to take better pictures in the same lighting, you would…
Apparently things can change in a second, or so I’m told!
For those of you who don’t know, my hubby, Lou, loves the OC Fair. Every year leading up to the fair he begins planning his first visit which always happens on the first day the fair opens, unless he has to work. When the kids were little he lined up with the girls on the…
Sparkly and Sober
Since my last post, lots of changes have happened in my life! If I was telling you this story in person I would skip around from one subject to another pulling them all together with my over exaggerated hand gestures and facial expressions, but since I’m writing and you can’t ask me questions, I’ll go…
Why I lost my biggest client…
Yesterday, while on Instagram, up popped a picture from 2 years ago. This was the picture: This picture was from my first job with, let’s call him, Gus, for privacy reasons. Gus was referred to me by a wonderful real estate agent whom is also a friend. Gus is an extremely successful builder who owns…
Tiara came for a visit
Since Tiara passed away over 4 years ago, she has worked hard to let us know she is still with us. Whether you believe this is possible or not, it doesn’t really matter, but we know she is still around. She isn’t with us every second of the day but she spends lots of time…
Please don’t ignore your children!!!
As most of you know I spend a large portion of my time decorating homes which requires me to do a lot of shopping. I do most of my shopping at Home Goods/ Tj Maxx stores all through Orange County. I’m currently decorating a home in Eastside Costa Mesa so I have been shopping between…
My life changed forever, 20 years ago today.
Somehow 20 days have gone by and I haven’t posted. 20 days, 20 years, time moves so quickly and we can never get it back. 20 years ago this weekend Tiara was diagnosed with Tuberous Sclerosis. I remember sitting in the blue vinyl chair at CHOC watching the eeg tech perform the first of many…
I quit drinking wine and am trying to rescue my liver!
Don’t worry, I didn’t give up alcohol, just wine! I have to say I seriously miss my Chardonnay but I needed to quit for several reasons. I have known for years that I shouldn’t be drinking white wine because of the high sugar content and my ever expanding menopausal waistline also agreed, but I still…
I can’t remember how to do anything!
This isn’t like riding a bike, because I can’t remember how to do it, even though I used to be really good at it! You know how you learn to use your phone and then you have to update it 2 years later and everything is confusing and you can’t seem to complete the simplest…
Be true to yourself in all things, even decorating!
Yesterday morning while driving to morning Mass, I received a call from Tabitha. She had me on speaker with one of her coworkers. “Mom, Kim needs help picking a faucet and because you are my Mom, she thinks I can help her. You know I am clueless with all things home decor. Can you help?”…
