Lately I haven’t been a big fan of Disney, or at least Disney princesses…or perhaps just individuals who are too over the top and sweet to be real. After all, Snow White, Cinderella and the rest weren’t real women. But that’s another tangent. The line I used as a heading happens to be lyrics in… Continue Reading

It’s been awhile
It seems like I’m always apologizing for my absence here at PGG. It’s not that I don’t have every intention of posting here regularly, but somehow during the course of my week, the intention is overridden by a myriad of things. Although Princess Girly Girl was my first foray into the world of blogging, and… Continue Reading
Life Goes On
The boy-child is now a high school graduate and is preparing for fall semester at East Carolina University. So much to accomplish in these few short weeks before he’s required to start classes!! I’ve also been busy with my business, and actually signed another client today. So exciting, especially since they are located in North… Continue Reading
The Circle Game
As my son prepares for his high school graduation in 5 days, my brain has unearthed an old song by Joni Mitchell. I remember hearing it as a child and loving it because it mentioned painted ponies. Of course as I got older and heard the song, I realized it was a bittersweet tribute to… Continue Reading
Plus Sized?? Gimme a Break.
So, the media outlets are calling the newest winner of America’s Next Top Model plus sized. Are you kidding me? Does this look plus sized to you? I don’t think so.

Roadblocks are difficult, but one has to find a way around in order to move forward. Forks…those are a completely different story. Forks… Continue Reading
One Angry Girly Girl
I spent part of the day in the emergency room with my son yesterday. A set of stairs leading to our second floor condominium collapsed with my son on them. It was easily one of the most terrifying moments of my life. I still feel like crying every time I think of him falling with… Continue Reading
Sig Hansen is the Man
No I haven’t lost my little pink marbles. Yes, I’m still anxiously awaiting the release of the Sex and the City movie. But somehow, somewhere along the line I’ve become a ‘guy’ show junkie. My latest addiction? Deadliest Catch on Discovery. It wasn’t a sudden love affair. It began innocently enough. On the weekends the… Continue Reading
The Glamour Trap
In case you hadn’t noticed the name of my blog, I’m a girly girl. The official definition of a girly girl is that it is a term for a girl or woman who chooses to dress and behave in a traditionally feminine style. I admit that I really love being a woman and embrace not… Continue Reading
Social Life…What’s a Social Life?
Wow, my last post here was in March? Time flies when you’re …well, not exactly having fun. On one hand, things are getting a little easier, but things are changing rapidly too. My 22 yr. old is leaving the nest, so we are in the midst of ‘can I take this’ and ‘I need this’… Continue Reading
