Hi all! There have been some new readers here lately, so it’s time I reintroduce myself.

I’m Sonni, and though I have lots of descriptors—mom of three; wife; TV news veteran; podcast/live show host; borderline skincare hoarder; ravenous consumer of news; occasional political junkie, human design Manifestor, true see-both-sides Libra. I love people, and I love stories, so on this blog as well as on my podcast, I interview tons of people and you can get all their wisdom, with some of mine sprinkled in, here on this blog as well as the podcast.

Here on the blog you’ll find wraps of plenty of those interviews, as well as lots of beauty and skincare talk. We have range here! From the Big Stuff in life to the superficial stuff, we cover it all.

So, welcome!

Occasionally I like to post to see if other people are thinking the same things I do, or what their thoughts are on a certain issue, and we call those posts Just Wondering.

So today’, just wondering: Anyone out there a Holiday Procrastinator?

I have plans—big plans!—every October to be the Organized Holiday Person. To have a list of people I’m buying for, updated and checked off as I get their gifts. It feels within reach every year, and every year I promise myself, “This is the year we do it, sister. Get your sh** in order!”

And then, every December, the week before Christmas, I am frantically last-minute shopping for at least five people. I just got back from a mini shopping spree that, to be honest, was super efficient—two people bought for, and wrapped, in 30 minutes!

I think I must secretly know that deadlines—like deadlines I’m pushed riiiiight up against—are my best motivators.

So, who’s the organized type, and who’s with me on the last-minute stuff? I can’t be the only Holiday Procrastinator, right?
