A Month to Remember: January 2024

Oh, January! You always feel like the longest month imaginable, but I’d never complain about it. You’re so full of post-holiday magic, birthday celebrations, snowy weather (where I live, at least!) and a much-needed sense of hope and optimism for the months/year ahead.

A Case of The (Birthday) Mondays…

When I told my friends and family that I was going to be at my office on my birthday (today!) nearly all of them said that I was crazy, and that I should have taken the day off to celebrate- or at the very least relax and sleep in for a change. But, there’s really […]

Trees and Top Hats…

It seems almost unjust to have to return to work so soon after wrapping up such a fun and busy weekend but alas, here I am, preparing to start another Monday morning (albeit from the comforts of my cozy living room/office set-up!) of phone calls, e-mails and meetings. Is it possible to rewind the clock […]

Turkeys, Train Rides and Travel…

Well hello, December! As we enter the final stretch of 2023 and gear up for Christmas and New Year’s Eve celebrations, I wanted to do a quick rewind and talk about the most magical Thanksgiving weekend ever. I’m still floating on a fluffy, tinsel-covered cloud with how sweet, thoughtful and festive it was! Thanksgiving and […]
