My ten-year-old daughter complained of a toothache, so I made plans to take her to the dentist. Out of nowhere, my husband insisted on tagging along.

Confession / Story Telling

My family kicked me off the Aspen family trip and texted, “We gave your first-class seat to the dog. You ruin the aesthetic.” I simply replied, “Enjoy.” Then I flew my private jet to my $15 million estate on the same mountain and invited the relatives they had excluded.
