I get to pick and choose anything I want to share with the world. I decide if I want to tell all my friends or none at all. It's my call if I mention it in a 'project me' post or if I want to keep it to myself. It's not what I choose to […]

If I don't do it and say it then I'm not dealing with me in the true light of 'project me'. Yesterday I had a gorgeous blogged planned and when my very special and innocent friend, Irvin Sammons, sent the photographs to me I fell apart. I ended up simply posting my Christmas Country song […]

It's freezing cold and seems to only be getting colder. I'm a bit of a ninny in the cold but that's not the point of the story. It's more about my tattoo that's been hidden?behind?jerseys and jackets for ages now. I love it! I hear that lots of people have a moment of regret after […]

Sportsy is about to arrive at Greggie's for yet another game of the 2010 world cup soccer (yes, I say it that way for googley purposes) and the whole day I've had one little thought tingling the back of my mind ... dinner! I adore cooking and always use the freshest?ingredient. Not to boast, but […]

Admittedly, I can't blog for long today (being halfway through day 152) because I've managed to waste more than half of it forcing myself into positive spaces ... but that's for tomorrow's blog. Today, I just have to get through this so that I can finally do some work for the first time in a […]

The tattoo is healing so nicely thanks to the nappy rash cream (yep, that was the instruction from Pepi), a whole lot of care and attention from my gentle mom's applications of the ointment, Greggie's super thick applications and my brother's 'slap it on and smear' ones. I've also kept my hair tied up, considering […]

Even though I've got a dear friend who's helped me prep for this afternoon's tattoo and I'm more than a thousand percent sure that I want this beautiful piece of art that is symbolic and permanent ... I can't help but admit that yesterday was consumed with the distracting fears of the needle. Text Guy […]

When I started ?project me? one of the things that I knew I wanted to start having fun with, become goalless about and change without becoming obsessive, was my weight. In the first post I wrote, over four months ago, I shared a story with you about a very (maybe a little too) honest friend […]

It's always the story of the shoemaker's daughter and very hard to believe that I have been in the beauty industry since 1992 ... then why am I doing my own manicure and pedicure on a Sunday afternoon with my sister painting my toe nails and me painting my fingers?
