“Time is precious, use it wisely.”

One thing COVID has given us is more time. Since sheltering in place with our families, or solo, we have had more time than ever before. Although I still haven’t made the time to clean out our garage I have embarked on a few other projects. About a month into SIP I tried my hand at baking. It lasted about a month. My goal was 19 items for COVID19. Today, now three months later I can’t believe I did it nor do any of my friends or family members. Baking really requires focus and attention to detail, –and a lot of shopping for specific ingredients. It was a great distraction and occupied a chunk of time while at home looking to do something other than work.


I also had the time to create this website and ‘The Daily Sparkle Blog,’ work on developing my skincare line… ‘Contained Beauty,’ and write my latest book, ‘Beauty At Any Age, Because Age Is Just An Attitude.’
I also used this time to meet up with friends, one on one, of course.
