2016: My Year Of Hella No

What. A. Year. It began with a man I loved and a three month trip to Italy.

It ended with me finding out the man I loved is a lying cheater with no soul. Oh, and dead eyes. (I just realized this as I was writing this post.) A man who came with me on that trip to Italy just so he could “hook up” with the wife of a couple we met on our first trip to Italy. After a year and a half of sexting, and texting, and secret emails, and private Skype calls, I finally found out what was going on and he’s no longer part of my life.

(I’ll wait while you scrape off that mental layer of eww.)

2015: The Year I Embrace THE LIST

Hey, if it ain’t broke…

It’s that time again. The annual new year’s listing of resolutions.

I’ve never warmed to this yearly ritual.

Taking the time to make a list of things I want to change about myself when I absolutely know I’ll lose the damn list right about the time I get to “lose 10 pounds, again.” seems like a waste of a perfectly good piece of paper.

I’m all about saving the trees, y’all.

My Free Gift To You This Holiday Season

Not much in life is free. Free, without strings or obligations.

So, when I discovered that WordPress offers up a FREE holiday-themed wallpaper…for FREE…I jumped into that like the olives jump into my martini glass.

To all the bloggers I’ve met over the years, and to all the bloggers I’ve yet to meet, I wish you sincere best wishes for a joyous holiday, a merry Christmas, a happy Chanukah, and a [fill in the blank] holiday, and a spectacular 2015!

Did I mention this image was FREE?

(Technically, this is not my FREE gift to you but rather a FREE gift from WordPress. But it’s the holidays. Let’s not quibble.)
