I have a confession to make.

I’ve been cheating on you with anther blog.

It’s true.

I’d tell you the new blog’s name but then I’d have to kill you.

A panoramic of the morning sky...

You see, I really like writing about what’s going on in my life. So I found a new, totally anonymous outlet to achieve that…

And in the meantime, there’s still some good single gal stuff here for you.

Like this week’s new Duchess Digest post on Single Minded Women. It’s about good and bad choices and their (often) unintended side-effects.

Please to enjoy…

Just a quick note from the Burbank, California Airport where I’m sitting awaiting my flight to Denver for the weekend . . . . I wanted to wish you all a very FUN and HAPPY and SAFE Halloween weekend! I’ve made a promise to a very special 9 year old niece that I would see her Halloween costume, school parade and take her trick or treating. I love that I’m in a place in my life where I can have the time and money to be with my family. My family is the world to me and even though it’s Halloween and not Thanksgiving, I want to say thanks to all the forces, people and mentors who have helped me arrive where I am. One of my favorite passages from Wallace Wattles book is “What I want for myself, I want for everyone.” I love that. It’s absolutely the reason I started and continue to share Duchess is for this reason. I know that it’s not just about the love and the relationships (although that’s a huge part of it). It’s the entire look at life that makes it so delicious – from love and relationships, to money and career, to family and health – I’m so lucky in all that I have and what I have and want, I truly do want for you as well!

Betty's Halloween Outfit this weekend - She's a little Devil!

So here’s to your happiness, your fun, friends and family filled Halloween weekend and your success! May you be silly and laugh and enjoy this fun and outlandish weekend.

Princess Betty.
