I started journaling in high school.  It was a great way for me to deal with my teenage angst, and plan for my future.  I stopped in college, but picked it back up a few years after I got married.  
Today, after completing an entry in my journal, I decided to read it from the [...]

I am, by nature, a very laid back person.  I like small gatherings with family and friends, reading, my iPod, and movies.  When it’s my turn to host book club, we meet in restaurants.  I mean really, they can’t expect me to clean AND cook AND have energy left over to discuss a book.   [...]

Today I am keeping it short and sweet.
Like millions of folks around the world, I am overjoyed.  So this week, I’m keeping it simple.  Where were you when you heard the news?
Me- I was on my couch with my laptop commenting at APOOO and checking news websites while watching television when Barack Obama was announced [...]

They say that beauty is skin deep.  Can we say the same about confidence?  
Due to last year’s writer’s strike, I began watching a ton of reality tv.  That was pretty much the only new “programming” on for a while.  I discovered the Real Housewives (Orange County, New York, and now Atlanta) franchise.  Mindless entertainment [...]

After my divorce, it became apparent that I had a “type” when it came to dating.  Tall, dark chocolate, smart, ambitious, confident to the point of arrogance, extroverts with hot bods.
And then two years ago a co-worker and I took notice of one another.  We began working closely together due to a set of circumstances [...]

Where to start. 
Sometimes ideas get in my head and won’t go away until I write about them.  This week it’s Granny Panties.  This post was supposed to be about gratitude, but I have to do what the Muse says or she’ll bug the hell out of me for weeks.
So during the 90s, Americans finally got [...]

Fear is nature’s way of eliciting action.  You stand your ground and slug it out with the source of your fear, or you haul ass until you find safety in order to regroup.  Either way, you have to do something because just standing there and doing nothing may get you killed. 
This is the image that [...]

Sex-Have it Your Way! by Djuanna Brockington
When was the last time you had sex because you felt like it?  Ok, ok, I really don’t expect you to tell me, but just ponder the issue for a minute.
If statistics are right, most of us started having sex in our teens.  I can’t speak for anyone else, [...]

Girl Power by Djuanna Brockington
Last Friday, my girlfriends and I went to an afternoon showing of The Women.  Cute movie.  If you have ever seen the 1939 version (which I have several times) you might have been a little critical.  I wasn’t though. I loved that , like the original screenplay, men had no onscreen presence.  [...]

 I already know that I will be stepping on a few toes (pun intended) with my blog today.  As part of my mid-life crisis revolution, I have decided to take a stand for my feet. (Seriously, I am cracking myself up here.  Please bear with me.)  Like many women, I loves me some shoes.  But, [...]
