Queens aren’t Perfect

Psst…let me let you in on a little secret.

Us Queens are not perfect.

And we do so with dignity…and if not dignity, then a great big smile.

One of my favorite sayings:

“I am perfectly imperfect”.

And you, M’lady, are too…

And you flip it over to read Divas Don’t Fake It.

What’s funny is that my 11-year-old daughter saw both of this book and instantly thought of me.

Moi? Lol.

Good-bye Eppicard

At the time that I enrolled, I thought the Eppicard was a wonderful idea.
