Greetings faithful readers and newbies alike! So, last week yo
u got a feel for what may unfold here in The D Files. You’ve had a glimpse at the cast of characters that were in the previous edition and those who are going to pop up along the way. It starts off as a juicy, chocolate-covered, mystery-laden story of sex, lust, disappointment, and despair. It also taps into what makes us, as women, unique and connected, and hopefully winds up restoring our faith in what makes us strong and able to keep striving for our dreams!
Keep up with who’s who and what’s happening each Tuesday. Once you are hooked, be sure to let your girlfriends know about it by sharing the link with your address book, your Facebook friends, and your Twitter followers. Be sure to keep up with the story, because some real twists and turns are going to happen very soon. (Hint, hint)
As far as what’s going on right now in the real world, it has FINALLY stopped snowing here in Philadelphia. We’ve had over fifty inches already this winter and I have had it. I am ready to book a flight to Miami and do some sun worshiping. If anyone has a condo or a timeshare that has an ocean view, email me and let me know if I can use it. I am SOOOOO over all of this white winter weather! UGGGGG!
On another note: Is it just me? Did anyone else have numerous jaw-dropping moments while watching the winter Olympics last week? Some of those women (and men) are just absolutely incredible. I was amazed at how tough they are, and it has inspired my workouts at the gym. I am working so much harder in spinning class, and my kickboxing class is no longer kicking my butt. These women inspired me, bringing back memories of my childhood and being inspired to ice skate by Dorothy Hamel. I am glad I still have that spirit in me and hope that you dig deep and challenge yourself in ways that you didn’t think were possible. You can do it!!
Now onto this chapter of The D Files: It is summertime, and it is about the support and nourishment of women and womanhood—about bringing one of our own children into our adult group of friends and ensuring that our circle of trust remains relevant and strong. Of course, there are sexy men and some tense moments, but nothing we can’t handle, even if it is by the skin of our teeth.

My fifteen-year-old brother-in-law was a cute, vivacious teenager full of charisma and fun. He loved to tweak my nose whenever he was around me, no matter where we were. Of all my brothers-in-law, he was my favorite. He had a lot of friends and was well liked by everyone that came in contact with him.
