Stick to Your Plan, Not Your Mood Well, confession time, for most of last week, I hadn’t worked out in literally five days. Including barely jumping on my rebounder. It was a busy week, it was a short week, and it was my birthday on Monday. Happy Birthday to Meeeeeee! Side note: My birthday year had already been off to a cracking start with ‘My Boys’, Arsenal, lifting the Premier League trophy just the month before. Yeahβ¦ I’ll absolutely take that lovely gift! β€οΈπ€β€οΈ But back to this week, when the compressor thingamabob, whatchamacallit thing in our air conditioner unit broke, so it literally felt like I was sleeping in…

As A Woman, Your Happiness Is Your Power
Why some people get uncomfortable when women are happy. Tell me if this is something youβve noticed, suspected, or outright discovered, that thereβs this special something about a rested woman. An unbothered spirit, a calm woman or even relatively steady woman that youβd think everyone would celebrate. But apparently, according to some corners of these here interwebs and in real life too, a woman who is genuinely content can make far too many people uncomfortable… strangely angered even. Freaking funny, isnβt it? Honestly, it’s a place I’d happily wallow in forever. But since life insists on life-ing, I’m learning to savor the moments, intentional and random, that I get to…

Need a Quick De-Stress From The Thanksgiving Crazy?
Pause the pre-Thanksgiving Day madness for a few minutes. Grab a pen and play: Jump right to the SincerelyIreneB Thanksgiving word search, if you need to! I get it! Squat, Diddly, Me For some years now, Thanksgiving has been a little (read: a lot) more nontraditional in my world. I went from doing the whole feast, to a few side dishes, to doing squat β as in diddly-squat, or squat-diddly, you choose. I donβt cook a single thing. Not a turkey leg, not a pie (because I donβt bake, but luckily my girls do), not even a wee pot of vegetables passes my hands. For me, Thanksgiving felt far too…

Splurge or Save? What’s the Best Choice for You?
Random chats with friends often spin into the best convos. Case in point: my last trip home to London, soaking up some back home goodness and catching up with friends and fam, an interesting topic came up out of nowhere, it seemed. One of the crew brought his new-to-me boo, over my Bestieβs place. Me and my US fam usually split our time home between my sisterβs and my Bestieβs pads. The day either of them start charging Airbnb rates, Iβll personally cry buckets in court and sue for emotional distress and abuse. Roll that βHelp me, Iβm poorβ scene from Bridesmaidsβ¦ now picture me, every single time I travel…
