Here are all of my lifestyle posts featuring my family, travel, home decor, and inspirations.
Last year, the COVID pandemic derailed plans for significant events and travel. However, as the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society planned for its 2021 annual floral extravaganza, they decided the show must go on. So, in its 193 years, the first outdoor Philadelphia Flower Show at the historic FDR Park. Opening day, Saturday, June 5, the temperature […]
In case you missed my Clubhouse Room on Saturday, I did a branding session with creative consultant Elliot Carlyle. “Your brand is what other people say about you when you’re not in the room.” Jeff Bezos
Are you ready to spring into a new season? I know that’s a rhetorical question, but I didn’t want to make any assumptions. Daylight savings time: beloved in the fall for the extra hour of sleep and relished in the spring for the extra hours of sunlight. After one year of the health pandemic, everyone […]
Are there any Mid-lifers on Clubhouse, the new drop-in chat app? I heard about Clubhouse in December and figured I would check it out at some point. However, last Friday, February 19, Forever Fierce Day, I became fully submerged in the Mid-life Matters Clubhouse conversation room.

Because of COVID-19, I’ve limited my travel. This time last year, I was in Portugal. Nevertheless, My daughter Channing received an appointment invitation from the CFDA, including a plus one.

“When we lose someone we love, we must learn not to live without them… But to live with the love they left behind.” Since my beloved Mom passed away on Friday, September 25, I’m thankful for the many messages, flowers, planters, virtual hugs, and prayers sent to my family and me. I knew this, but […]
