I’m just going to put it out there. LA feels weird. Life feels weird. I’ve been uncomfortable. Out of sorts. Why is it that getting out of our environment and our daily routines, especially during COVID and quarantine, tends to lift our spirits and fill us with inspiration?

Other days, I find myself exhausted, drained, wanting to sleep the day away. I feel like I’m continually dancing between … Continue Reading
Last week, I almost lost Moxie, my Fierce Moxie. Her nickname, so apropos, is Moxie May, short for Mayhem. It was the day after my birthday. A Freak Accident. Fortunately, I was born on 7/07. Double 7’s. Lucky 7’s. Extra good luck. I would need it that day. So would Moxie. I was sitting … Continue Reading
When the “Cool Cat No. 8” handbag first caught my eye, all I could think about was an exceptional outcome: Me … and that bag! It was last summer that I was scrolling through Instagram.
