Life’s Like That Sometimes – Part 2

Walk-In Closet - Verastic

Do you switch out your clothes when the seasons change? One of the things I love about living in Maryland is that we have four seasons. I love how the seasons go from winter to spring to fall to summer. If you are a regular Sweet Potato, then you'd know that Fall is my absolute favorite season. Anyway, yesterday, I was switching my summer clothes out for my winter clothes, and it got me thinking. I was excited to switch my clothes out because I am now in a season that I enjoy. Although we Read More

I Really, Really Want To Cut All My Hair Off

My hair is natural; you know that, right? Well, there was one time I wrote about wanting to perm my hair again. Not just perm it, but cut it and perm it.

When I was pregnant with Ada Verastic, we did not find out her sex. We wanted to be surprised. The only thing the nurse told us during one of the routine sonograms was that our baby had a lot of hair. I thought nothing of it until Ada Verastic was born and we saw that indeed, she had a lot of hair. Her hair was thick and black and curly and just Read More

I Don’t Always Wear A Watch, But When I Do …

Daniel Wellington - Verastic

I have an interesting relationship with watches. At one point in my life - in my early college years - I had to wear a watch. I was so faithful in wearing the same watch every day that I had a tan line on my left wrist (and I loved that tan line). At that time, though, smart phones were not what they are today. If memory serves me right, the smart phones available back then were the Sidekick from T-mobile and the Palm Pilot from Sprint and other carriers. Remember them? I had neither one of Read More
