Something Different
I had the unique privilege of guest posting on a different blog today. I would love it if you would visit the site of a new friend: http://racheltoalson.wordpress.com/2014/07/25/guest-post-my-name-is-jennifer-and-i-am-a-manipulator/
Stand Out
When you look at the flowers at my front door, what stands out? Those big round yellow 'look at me, look at me' flowers? They will practically attack someone as they walk past to come inside. When I choose the flowers for the front, I go for color, not worrying about keeping things matching or... Continue Reading →
No Competition
In my early twenties, I had a job where I worked in an office with three other women. Our boss was twice my age, very fit and energetic and seemed to check me out head to toe each morning as I arrived at work. She would comment on my outfit or jewelry, in that way... Continue Reading →

That's not... Continue Reading →
