A common misconception of getting older and still being S I N G L E is that you don’t need anybody. You’re right, I don’t need a man.  I am capable of working, taking care of most things, having a social life and finding someone to help me when I need some help. But, that…

How are you still single?  What is wrong with guys?  Nothing.  Nothing is wrong with them.  Nothing is wrong with me.  Why in the world would they do that to you?  What is wrong with them?  Nothing.  Nothing is wrong with them.  Nothing is wrong with me.  I have heard these questions over and over…

“You’re too picky.”  Oh, the times I have been told this.  And, maybe you have been told this too. Probably I’ve made a snarky remark back a few times, but most of the time I don’t argue it. If someone thinks I’m “too picky” then they’ve formed an opinion and doesn’t really matter what I…

There’s an old Jessica Simpson song, “With You” that talks about being real me; Levi’s, t-shirt, hair down that I can relate to.
