Not a delicate flower me!

When did I stop being a girly girl?  Trying to remember a day or event that sticks in my memory when I went from a feminine girl to a loud and raucous and often rude (as in naughty) woman. Two events come to mind after the long weekend I just had off – starting with…

This Madame loves…

Life is pretty good at the moment – no doubt the result of regular gym sessions, a couple of tan can sessions and some horizontal cardio here and there 😉 So, been meaning to write this post for a while …  as Duffy pointed out this weekend … I’m someone who actually talks about awesome businesses…

Hospital Hilarity

I am a typical busy woman.  This means I completely ignore the signs my body sends and push these symptoms to the bottom of the list in my haste to tick off as many things as possible for other people, my business, family, etc.  Nothing new here – enter the Cancerian martyr! LOL! So in…

Random musings…

When will my domestic worker stop “correcting” my perfectly laid out chair and ottoman at the bottom of my bed? Every morning I put it at an angle and place my books just so on it, and every evening when I get home, she's “fixed” it! ARGH!!! I know it sounds really anal of me,…

Hyper Highway Madness

This Graves Disease induced hyperthyroid craziness is unbelievable! Let me share the last few nights with you as an indication of the madness… One of the things hyperthyroidism causes is an insatiable appetite! Like insanely, eat a box of pasta on your own and still be hungry, kinda insatiable! Normal people just don't get this,…
