About Me

My photo
Washington, DC, United States
I'm a naturalized Caribbean immigrant in the grand old U.S.A. I live in the Hillcrest neighborhood of Ward 7 and I'm a forever-journalist. I started my first career as a magazine editor and I haven't been able to give it up. When I started this blog, I was knee-deep into my fourth career as a government public relations specialist. However, I have been heading up my editorial staffing company, Invisible Colours LLC out of my Ward 7 neighborhood. I'm expanding my company's brand by offering video production and other social media technologies for clients. This blog follows my journey as a 40-something-year old in Washington, D.C. Married for several years, I have three kids--a boy and two girls. I am blessed, and I'm loving all that God has given me. I have a master's in journalism from Columbia University and a bachelor's of arts from the University of the West Indies. I hope I can offer a little insight into my life and my experiences. Writing serves as a catharsis for me. It is what I do best. It is what I love. It is who I am.

Life at 40 plus 7

I did not think for a while that I will ever get back to the blog I started to celebrate the dynamic 40s.

So many changes since my last entry in 2014.

On Life changes

  • My dear old father, Neville Phipps, passed away in October 2014. I've mentioned it in a post in my Vickey's Kitchen blog
  • My grandmother Adelaide Cupid, passed away July 16, 2018. She was a dynamo.
  • My girls are now in high school and middle school. 
  • My son is on the way up the aisle this fall
