Two weeks into this work-free bliss and I am smitten with the luxury of time! With time on my side, I have been able to make good use of it by investing it on friends, my kids and my husband. I have gotten some quality me-time which has re-fueled me as well. I have hiked,… Continue reading Time on My Side
Breaking Work Ties (and it feels so good!)
I quit my job this week which is one of the best decisions I have made in a long time- long overdue as well since I pretty much knew three months into this job that it was not a fit.

My Mountain Part 2
The other day, four girlfriends and I took to the trail up to the top of my mountain. I have reached the summit on two other occasions. The last time was 5 years ago.
