Yes, I'm A Millennial Grandma

My whole life I have always been told that I am an old soul. From the music I listen to, the clothes I wear and my mothering of others I completely agree with that label. I like to have things neat and color coded. If I see someone else's work who is not I feel the urge to organize it myself. So many times friends have told me about their crazy weekends or past crazy moments and I find myself responding with an "are you crazy, that really could have ended badly!" or "what would your mother say?" It is just who I am, a grandma for life. Are you a young-old person too?

1. If you want it, I have it.

If you want a peppermint or cough drop, I have it. Tissues or germ-X, I have that too. Whatever you want chances are I have it my purse. That is also why my purse is the size of a suitcase.

2. I am always cold. No, really.

No matter where I am I am in a sweater. As I am writing this I am wearing a sweater and slippers and it is currently 92 degrees. Most of the time I don't even turn the air on in my car.

3. If you gave something to me, chances are I still have it.

I may not know where it is but i guarantee you that I have it, Including birthday cards.

4. If you seem sad or angry, I assume it is because you're hungry.

In which I then hand you a gingerbread cookie, which I keep in my purse.

5. My biggest celebrity crush is Cary Grant.

The picture says it all!

6. I have "old lady" perfume.

I love it. My meme uses Chantilly and I LOVE the smell


7. I know how to crotchet.

If you ask me nicely, I will probably crochet you a sweater.


8. I am the "mom" friend.

I am the friend who tells you what you do not want to hear. I will tell you that boy is no good, and is trouble. If you want a "mom" opinion and yours can't be reached, I am your girl.

9. Frank Sinatra is my life.

"Come fly with me, lets fly lets fly away" It's my ringtone and favorite song. I can listen to mr. Sinatra all day everyday. It is my happy place.


10. I watch the news every morning and every night.

I start my mornings with the news and end it that way. I like staying informed. i like to know exactly what is happening within the world at all times.

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
