Money Turns Green or Mean
Some topics are generally shied away from – politics, religion, sex, and money. Mostly I touch on these subjects freely, but lightly, even though I do not really know the breadth of my audience since this space is primarily for my own entertainment. Still, with the Internet the way it is and knowing that my…

Just Call Me “Ms Bradshaw”
A couple of months ago a friend told me that I should be writing now that I have the time. I was a bit hesitant making some excuses about this and that. However, in the end I realized she was right. I also began to look for some freelance work on Upwork where I had…

New Routines
Another day missed for posting and I didn’t realize it because my schedule is all out of whack right now. It is probably going to be this way for a few more weeks until after I get back from Bali for my yoga training retreat. However, in the meantime, I will try to adjust to…

Making Ourselves at Home
We are now five days in to our new home and I am personally completely in love with the place. They say money cannot buy happiness, but money can buy rent for a lovely place that results in happiness! 😛 So far, we have not been too hot without AC as long as we cool…
