Checking In

I took yesterday essentially off. I didn't power on my laptop. I used my phone to answer calls. I did text my brother to wish him a happy birthday.

I read a new Nora Roberts book. I went to a couple of appointments. We had the girls LAX dinner, always terrific fun.

I firmly believe every once in a while we all need a digital detox. I can be as bad as my kids - phone attached to my hand or parked in front of the laptop. So, I took some time off. I will get to emails and texts today.

The past few days have been terrific! The Westchester Magazine food & wine show at the Ritz Carlton on Sunday with my friend Claire. What's not to love about THAT? Bella's birthday fun. Hanging around yesterday and the great dinner last night.

Happy 16th Birthday, Bella!

I have a lot of people asking me about my job. So far, my brain matter has only oozed out a little while learning all this new stuff. It is a busy salon and that makes ME happy. The pace is fast. I will get into the groove, of that I have no doubt. It amuses me to do my hair in the morning. I was rather used to the pony tail. And to be wearing make-up again is another forgotten experience. I was touched to be invited to dinner on Saturday night, one day into the new job. In a nutshell, it is going fantastically.

Today is my sister Jane's birthday! I have told you all about her here. Jane is remarkable, amazing, kind, caring, the real deal. Have THE best day! I love you lots!

Music today - for Jane. 
She can dance while on one of her many conference calls!
