SAME OLD DANCE

Boy meets Girl
Boy loses Girl
Sometimes there are second chances
Sometimes it's ok to listen to your heart


PRETTY GIRL

Sometimes when we grow up
We finally realize we need something more than a pretty face in our partner




I ALMOST DIED TODAY

I'm a girl
I live in the city 
One wrong step off of any given sidewalk
Your a dead duck
Texting 
Not paying attention
BAM!
That car is right there
Right into you.......

I almost died today

But

That wouldn't had matter to some
My disappearance from this planet 
Would not have mattered

I almost died today I said to my friend
It was met on deaf ears
"I'm going to Paris"she replied
"Stop being a drama Queen"
My one guy friend said

I felt like a nerd back in high school
Where the only place you lived was in your own insignificance 

No one heard me today.......

I almost died today

LIFE IN UPSTATE NEW YORK

I've always loved upstate New York 
As a child I would visit the Adirondacks
Lake Placid, White Face Mountain area is a dream come true
I also luv the Hudson Valley
Here are some recent pictures I took 
Of a quick trip to upstate NY

RULES


ARE YOU CO-DEPENDENT?

I told you I was going to repost this
Do you get out of one relationship
Just to run back into a new one right away?
Well quess what....
You are what we call co-dependent
How's that working for you???


LIFE OUTSIDE THE STADIUM

Pittsburgh is a VERY proud sports town!
I'm not kidding!
These people have Steelers toilet paper!
OMG!
But when am I going to be invited in???





SIMPLE KARMA

I believe in karma
If you throw evil out into the Universe
It's sure to come back to you 
In some form
Bad health
Financial
Relationships
Don't think your going to be exempt
If you haven't received your karma yet
And YES!
You know what you have done....
Don't fool yourself 
Your train to Hell
Has just not gotten to your station yet
Enjoy your ride
GOD BLESS

SO TIRED OF PLASTIC

If all you got is your looks
Your sooo Screwed
Sooo tired of plastic

SPORTS BRA

In suburbia Americana women are addicted to Yoga
In NYC we are addicted to Soul Cycle
 


DOWN THE AVENUES

Lets take a look
At an avenue in NYC 
And an avenue in the Burgh

Look down a street in Pittsburgh 
I've taken a 1000 pictures of my life in and around NYC, but this is one of my favorites. Here I was standing on 7th & 35

EATING IN PENNSYLVANIA

I was born and raised in Eastern PA
Bout 30 minutes outside of Philly
And bout an hour 1/2 outside of New York 

I was from an Irish/German family
So the food choices were always meat and potatoes

Now that I'm older if you dare to put potatoes in front of me I will secretly freak!
If you happen to have a dog in your house he will be the happy recipient
Of my food 
Lol

These are some of the dishes from 
My childhood
Enjoy
Meat & Potatoes
Ciao 

Pork & sauerkraut 
Ham & Beans
Hot Bacon Dressing
Shoo fly pie

A TALE OF 2 CITIES

I live between 2 very different cities
Some of the time I'm in New York
A few days of the week I'm trying to
Make a life in Pittsburgh
Ugh
The love of my life will always be New York 
She was there for me when I walked away from my old life and the minute I stepped into that marvelous city it was love at first sight 
No one or nothing has won my heart like my New York 

I came to Pittsburgh because I was dating someone (that's a whole other story!) 
But like most of the men I pick
That was a huge dissapointment 

Could this dating thing in my divorce yrs be eternally filled with idiots or less 
Thans?????

Hopefully the tides will turn and Prince Charming will sweep me off my feet....
Ya right!

Anyway 

This Pittsburgh thing has not stole my heart like my New York had. 

Don't get me wrong....
I like it
It's a more controlled big city
Not as intimidating (to some of you)
And accessible from the burbs

But can I spend the rest of my life here??
Western PA is not accessible to my major favorite locations
Boston, Philly, Jersey, D.C.
Hell, even upstate New York is too far

My life between 2 very different cities

BEAUTY TIP OF THE DAY

Don't wash your hair everyday 
Let the natural oils soak back into the cuticle 
From roots to ends
As we age our sebaceous glands slow down  in producing oil
This is how we lose our skin & hair shininess 
Don't wash your hair everyday
Even if it's against your very core being
Wake up
Re-blow dry 
Use dry shampoo
Trust me.....
It will be ok

SMALL TOWN FUN

It's a beautiful fall day here in Western Pennsylvania 
Everyone is out in our small town
The kids are out of school early and enjoying some last moments of summer warm weather
It's in the 80's today
Soon we all will be sporting our sweaters and boots
But for now we all are enjoying some ice cream
Xoxoxo


LUNCH ON THE RUN

Most of us hairstylists are soooo busy we have no time to eat
So in between clients we grab a lot of quick items
Heres my one friend who has made eating in between clients
A healthy profession
Lets take a look at his food selections in the salon
