It may be raining here in Nashville (which has been ongoing for more than a week now), but it’s a sunny day because it’s my Dad’s Birthday!!! I am so fortunate to have a father who is such a big part of my life… my parents are the most supportive people a girl could ask […]

This phrase brings back so many memories for me of my college days at UT. Background– we lived in Massey Hall (my hall for those of you that know me well-HA!) and during our senior year my friend Megan Price ran up and down our sorority hallway screaming at the top of her lungs “IT’S […]

Another hump day means another installment of “Wishful Wednesday” and this week really got me thinking: of course we all tune in to watch our favorite television shows and the stars on them, but Kelsey made her topic this week really fun: ‘I wish’ …. I could be Heidi Klum! Not only does she host […]

have you ever felt like you were missing out on something you knew you wanted to do? i am usually the type of person who sticks herself out there and has enough courage to conquer–what i think is almost anything–but i figure now is as good a time as any. i have been wanting to […]

I am going to apologize upfront and make the statement that if my language/grammar is somewhat strange in this post, it’s because I am exhausted and running on an empty tank with no energy… this weekend was probably one of the busiest 2.5 days I’ve had in a very long time, and I know feel […]

Today marks a very important day: IT’S MY BEST FRIEND’S 25th BIRTHDAY!!!

She has matured into such a beautfiful young woman and has a great head on […]

Last night was the night I had patiently (err… not so much) been waiting for for so long!! My favorite Broadway musical is here in Nashville at TPAC and my Mom and I decided to treat ourselves to a girl’s night out to celebrate the festivities… we had originally seen the play when I lived […]

Through the blogging world, Kelsey from The Seattle Smith’s blog found me and I’ve become a follower of her adorable site. She recently came up with a clever idea to post a “Wishful Wednesday” topic each Hump Day and this week’s topic is: Home My wish is …. I could come home to Restoration Hardware […]

We are habitually–and unfortunately–stuck in the mundane routine of an 8 to 5 work schedule (wait: I thought it was supposed to be 9 to 5– when did they make the rule we had to work longer- hmmmm) Monday through Friday, so why not make the best of it, right? Another post of some of […]

Last night while perusing the TV, I came across a recent rerun of the Bravo show Master Chef– the challenge for the contestants was to think about something within their life they consider to be their vice… a few chose alcohol, some chose sweets, you get the idea… which made me start thinking- what exactly […]
