I’m not really a ‘selfie’ person. Especially when it comes to full-body selfie’s. But today I couldn’t resist. Try dressing for 30 degree weather when you live in Florida. It’s not fun. I spent an hour last night searching for my serious winter jacket. I only get to wear it twice a year. So where…

I like to get out and walk during my lunch in Downtown Orlando. I don’t get to do it often enough, but I do make it a point to try to get out at least once-a-week just to take advantage of my surroundings. Lately, some new art has been popping up around the downtown core. …

Halloween is over and now Christmas planning can begin! As much as I always dread Halloween, it always is fun. Despite my typical fall head-cold hitting on Halloween Eve, we survived with no major drama! And it was actually one of the best weekends we’ve had in a long time. Just about as perfect as…
