I cannot believe that we’re already saying farewell to November. Sure, I may have started decorating for the holidays a little early this month and yes, I’m currently listening to a Bing Crosby & Frank Sinatra Christmas playlist as I write this, but still! November came and went in a flash and it deserves a […]
I hope that everyone who celebrated last week had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday! A few days off to savor some good food, great company, and recover from some out-of-state-travel this past weekend was exactly what I needed to feel refreshed, reinvigorated and ready to get back into work and blogging again!

Time and money are extra important this time of […]
It was only a matter of time, but we’ve come up on the last couple of days of my extended West Coast journey. In a little over 24 hours I’ll be boarding a plane back to New England to ride out the remainder of my vacation before it’s time to return to work, colder weather, […]
