Last night, for the longest time in 'I don't know how long' I spent about three hours on Skype with two girlfriends. We talked. A lot. About many, many things including social media and perception. As the conversation grew wings and took on varying subject matters, I listened to how they felt about perception, online [...]
Hey guys, Today I asked my Instagram Followers for a prompt to write a short story for the Fiction category on my blog. Well, the votes are in, and here goes. This is what I can up with in an hour... What do you think? Her face scrunched as she expelled all the contents of [...]
Hey, guys! I can't believe that 2019 is more than half way through, even if only by two weeks. I've been meaning to write this blog for a week now, and not surprisingly, it's at 2am while I'm strung out and tired that I'm getting the chance. If nothing else, I've prided myself on being [...]
Last June, my skin decided to really wild out. I had apparently developed two types of eczema and acne. Eventually, everything I used caused inflammation, and I had unprovoked waves of it every other day. Eventually, I was reduced to only using water, and even then, I still had breakouts in waves. As someone who [...]
One beautiful Sunday morning, I felt the need to get out of the house. After a few minutes, we settled for going to Cane River, St. Andrew, a hidden gem with a waterfall. We drove through St. Andrew rather than St. Thomas, and may have gotten a little bit lost before getting there. After a [...]

I would lament on the fact that the year all but raced away, but I think we're all very aware of it already. The past year has been amazing. I’ve accomplished most of what I set out to do in some areas and exceeded my plans in others. Above all, I felt like ME again. [...]
A few weeks ago hubby and I took a trip to Chicago recently to attend the 2018 staging of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) conference. The conference lasted a week, during which time we stayed at the Hyatt Place River North hotel. It was a business trip and for all intents and purposes, [...]
Heroes Weekend 2018 was a special weekend of celebration for my family. My husband turned the big 30, my daughter turned 2, I celebrated the completion of two books (business and fiction), our accompanying friends celebrated graduating from the UWI and getting engaged. We decided to celebrate at the Grand Bahia in Runaway Bay, Jamaica. [...]
2 Years Old On October 13, 2018, my angel turned two years old. Can you believe it? How we got here so fast, I will never know. It's a wonder I didn't bawl like I did when she turned one. My beautiful, sweet, happy, smart child. I am so proud of her. I walk around [...]
My Birthday (August 9) weekend was a really full and busy time. My novel came out that day, and the stress of the months leading up was really wearing me thin. So when my husband asked what I wanted for my birthday and we happened to be driving by the Royal Decameron Cornwall Beach at [...]
Have you even had an ovarian cyst rupture or slow leak? I've been struggling with themleaking and rupturing for a while now. I posted a video on my Instagram teasing about a possible pregnancy some weeks ago. After a flurry of messages in my inbox, I came clean. I wasn't (am not) pregnant at all. [...]
Hey there! I know I've been off the radar on my blog, but I'm just busy. I keep saying I should wait until I no longer am, but in all honesty, there's not really an end in sight for that. Between my (almost) two year old putting me to work, general wifely (adulting) duties, working [...]

This blog post is a mite different from anything I've shared on here. It's darker, a piece of me I still actively sometimes struggle with. The other day I mentioned the effect a past experience had on me to a friend. She asked me a crucial question, during our conversation and I truly wanted to laugh. [...]
These last few weeks, watching Siobhán grow like a weed and immersing myself completely in the experience of being her mom, I've been hit with an unexpected conundrum, baby fever. I feel it wash through me everytime I look at my child, or see one younger than her. I look at her baby pictured wrought with [...]
I cannot believe how fast this time is going! Then again, I can believe it. When I watch my once mild tempered child catch an attitude and lash out in 0.0001 seconds flat, I can believe it. She is not here to play bruh. Talking She is talking. Well, as clearly as a child of [...]

Hi, guys! If you have been following my social media, you've heard! What Is It?The prequel is NOT the/a book. It is a marketing tool, leading up to the book launch in August. It's a teaser, providing background information essential to the story and giving depth and breadth to the antagonist(s) and protagonist(s) characters. How [...]
This little gem is a secluded hideaway in Robin's Bay, St. Mary and I decided to make a trip of it with when my friend, Shawna (Colette) came to visit. We headed out on the Saturday before Mother's Day. It's about an hour and a half drive from Ocho Rios. I wouldn't say it was [...]
Hey, guys! I know you can tell I have not been around WordPress as much as we would like, but you also know why. My book launch is drawing nigh and I really am just trying to stay afloat with everything. Between Siobhán, my book, the launch and making some family moves, I'm wishing there was [...]
One of the downsides of being married to a doctor is that sometimes, usually for months at a time, there are periods where you don't spend nearly enough time together. Hello March! If my husband does manage to be at home, he is more or less sleeping or in a zombie-like state. So I decided we [...]
Hey guys! Let's talk about potty training your toddler. Okay, my daughter has really been potty training a few months now, technically. I started her at 12 months when I noticed she would poop and then march right over to me pulling at the diaper. Now if you're thinking it's early, that's true. But I [...]
If motherhood has taught me nothing else, it is the true meaning of the phrase "beautiful mess" and the preciousness in appreciating every day and not letting life pass you by. This whirlwind of a journey has been indescribable from the start, but more importantly, I now understand the true preciousness of time and living in the [...]
