Thank you Nora Ephron

All my life I have loved to read. I have read a lot – for: university, work, pleasure, and simply information.

My Feng Shui Year – 2016

I need to change my life and I plan to use Feng shui to do it…

I am so glad that you’ve decided to join me on the journey to find my new “Karma”. Anyone who knows me will tell you that it is likely to be a bumpy ride. You may even find it’s a roller coaster, rather than a speedy highway or a tranquil forest trail. I woke on January 1, 2016 and decided my life needs to be different.
