Upon arrival at the Nordstrom Plus department at the Brentwood Nordstrom Rack in St. Louis, I was instantly surprised at the selection. Normally, when you add the words “Plus Size” to any store you can bet that the choices you’ll find will be the same old tired patterns that plus size styles have had [...]
Look at some of you people! You’ve written two or three follow up posts to BlogHer already and here it is Thursday and I’ve been hounded by several close friends to write a post already! I’ll be honest. When I was contacted about possibly interviewing Glee’s Jane Lynch while I was out in San Diego [...]
I’m not going to write a post with numbers and make a list and tell you what to do or what to wear, but I will briefly say that my daughter, Maddie, will be meeting up with me in San Diego this weekend. So, don’t freak out in front of her or anything. She’ll be [...]
Next month I’ll be attending the annual BlogHer conference again and I’ll be doing something that I haven’t previously done at the past six I have attended. I’ll be moderating a session. In the past I have been a speaker on several topics. Women of color and marketing, media, culture, self-reflection, parenting, and writing about [...]
Suebob is an old friend of mine and if I were to try to count back how long I’ve known her it would mean that I would have to say I was in my 30s at the time and Suebob was in her 40s. Suffice to say that I’m 40 now and Suebob is turning [...]
It might just border on impossible when it comes to summing up my trip to Atlanta. First, there was just the whirlwind of it all and traveling quickly to meet some really incredible women, both the writers I met and the female executives at Coca-Cola. There is also the very opinionated base of family and [...]
I will be attending a Conversations with Coca-Cola event next week in Atlanta where I will be meeting with their leadership team. Coke will be paying for my travel and lodging and I am being financially compensated for writing this post. As always, they are thoughts true to who I am and if you don’t [...]
Much as I’d love to exercise my option of not writing a post-BlogHer wrap up, I can’t help but tell you how I became a raging lunatic within 15 minutes of landing in New York. Don’t worry. It subsided just as quickly. But then I read this on Gawker and I had second thoughts. Then [...]
I love reading other blog posts that describe what the do when they’re on vacation. Skiing, hiking, and ziplining or some such nonsense. Isn’t ziplining a word? I thought that’s what it was called, but since I’m terribly uncultured in the art of vacation it’s just a crapshoot. My version of a vacation is usually [...]
Some marvelous things happened this week. One of my favorite parts about having a blog and sharing things online with friends (yes, I said FRIENDS) is that people read my words carefully and generally care for me. That’s a really nice thing to have in life anyway and I am blessed with some pretty fantastic [...]
