Word Up.

Posted on October 29, 2021 by Real Women

Not surprisingly, I love words.  Both real words and creatively made-up phrases.  There are lots of supposedly official words that are virtually unknown but are super fun.  Like ferrule, the small piece of metal that separates the pencil from the … Continue reading →

Resolutely Positively Real

Posted on January 3, 2020 by Real Women

There Are Reasons I Don’t Care

Posted on October 31, 2018 by Real Women

I don’t pay much attention to celebrity gossip.  I’m pretty clueless as to who’s married to who, who’s divorcing who, who’s in rehab, who’s in trouble with the law… mostly because for the large part, I just don’t care. Big life … Continue reading →

It’s RW Law

Posted on May 31, 2018 by Real Women

There’s very little in life that is guaranteed.  Some days, as a matter of fact, it seems that whatever is the opposite of your intended result will be the inevitable outcome.  Or, put more simply: Murphy’s Law. I’m not a … Continue reading →
