For a long time I had hated the look of my study room; I tried to do it all on my own plus it just didn’t work. I painted my walls dark purple, got gauzy curtains, a pale white rug, plus beige bedspread. It was hideous. I didn’t know what to do. I am just

I just set my hour timer so that it gives me something to race against while I write. I still need to do my yoga plus Spanish practice after writing, which is going to be strenuous to do because all my buddies are playing at the shore. Maybe I will do my Spanish lesson on
This year it was my turn to host Thanksgiving. I was not genuinely happy to host Thanksgiving. I know how much work Thanksgiving can be… You have to make food for everybody. You also have to make sure your loft is clean. You also have to make sure that you have appetizers plus dessert. You
