    So, I’ve been in Phoenix helping Anil to redecorate his condo. And it’s been so much fun – and so much work! For the first few days, we were still finalizing the “look” we wanted to go for. If you recall, I gave a proposal here as to what I thought we should go for. The…

  • 30 Days of Truth

    So, I found a “30 days of truth” blog topics that people some people are writing through Diary of a Mad Woman‘s blog. I’m not going to do it for 30 days straight, since I’d like to still be able to talk to you about “regular” things, but I will plan to do it sparsely…
