Every Housewife Needs a Miniature Horse.



Whether or not she just pulls the strings on the sidelines, I think we can all agree that Lisa Vanderpump is one of our favorite housewives.  It seems like everything she does is magical, even when she is causing drama in other people's life.  She does it in a way that you almost feel like you have to apologize to her, as we have seen with the recent exchange between Lisa and Eileen.  With her pink pumps, and her closet that is so massive it even has a desk in it, everything in her life is over the top and fabulous.  So why should the pets she has in her life be ordinary?   Lisa really shows us what life can be like, we just have to remember to treat ourselves.


The lesson that treating yourself needs to be a priority was crystal clear the day she set out to surprise her husband with a mini-horse for his 70th birthday.  Not only did she jump on her friend's private jet, she even brought Lisa Rinna along for the adventure. (Honestly, who would have said no to that.  NO ONE, that is who)  How many of us even have a friend with a private jet??  The 2 landed in Ohio with the intent of picking up the horse and bringing it straight back to Beverly Hills.  Who could imagine a better road trip?  I know I couldn't.

Lisa lives a life we all dream about, all while telling us hard work is all it takes to live that dream.  And that is part of her charm.  It doesn't hurt that she is incredible sexy too.

So lesson learned from Lisa Vanderpump, Go for what you want, don't let people tell you that what you want is crazy, and by all means, Treat yourself, because you deserve the best in life!

Every Housewife Needs A Tagline

When you first start watching any of the Housewives, you quickly learn, the best part is the opening sequence where each lady states their Tagline.  It pretty much sets the scene for the entire season.  A tagline can make or break you.  It is not to be taken lightly.

"I'm the OG of the OC"  "Haters gonna hate.  But I just Love Love Love"  And my personal favorite.  "Don't come for me, Unless I twirl for you"

So that got me thinking, what would mine be?  It is such a hard decision.  There are many questions you need to ask yourself.  Do I keep it local, just in case the Albuquerque franchise comes calling?  Do I make it funny?  Or, do I just say something corny?  Here is what I came up with so far.....

"People ask me red or green, But I answer Diamonds every time"

"I might have a Honeybear at home,  But that doesn't mean I don't know how to tame the Lion"

"I might have a Honeybear at home, But I still know how to let the lion out of the cage"

"I might be a cat lady, But I can still be a bitch"




You have to ask yourself, who am I right now and who will I be in 6 months from now.  I am still working on mine, but what would yours be?  Take some time, don't rush, but share it with the rest of us.

The lesson learned:  A lot can change in 6 months, you better be ready for it!

Lessons Learned While Watching the Housewives

I know I am not alone when I say, I love the Real Housewives.  Whether they are in Atlanta, New York, New Jersey, Beverly Hills, Orange County, or my new favorite Potomac.  Some housewives inspire, some get you fired up.  But at the end of the day, you must admit, they keep you entertain. And if you look hard enough, you can even take away a lesson or two.

I have decided to take all the lessons I have learned and put them in one place.  Sometimes I use the lesson to look at myself and change things I don't like.  Sometimes I use it to inspire myself to go for something in my career that might be out of reach.  And sometimes I just use them to make myself feel better, because I know having all the drama that some of the wives have in their lives can't be good.

So if you love the housewives, and if you love improving your life.  Come on a journey with me.
