| Introduction | I am just a reformed pessimist trying to find my way to seeing the sunnier side of life. I actually started this blog years ago as a lark because my coworkers were always teasing me for being nonperky. Little did they know that I was actually perky back in the day before chronic health issues changed my perspective on things. Well, life’s problems haven’t gone away, I have actually added a slew of new ones, but I am trying to do away with that negative perspective. So this blog has been repurposed. I am going to share my perspective on issues that may in turn help others – topics such as health issues, being single, the biological clock, weight loss, makeup and being happy wherever you are in life. I hope my blog helps someone. If not, I am sure it will help me along the way on my journey back to “perky.” |
