Thank you all very much for your kind comments regarding my father. I received word that he was discharged from the hospital about an hour ago, and is well on his way to recovery. I wanted so badly to be see him again today, but I could not as I had Claire to take care […]
Thank you to those who commented on today’s earlier, emotional post. My father is doing much better now — he was able to regain consciousness and was coherent by the time I was finally able to see him. The CAT scan did not reveal any serious damage, but they want to keep him at the […]
My father was hit over the head with a chair. He has a bad cut and is drifting in and out of consciousness. I am currently at the ER waiting for news. Please keep him, and our family, in your prayers tonight… You may also like: The Neverending Period My Top 7 Foundations Happy Father’s […]
I wish that baby monitors came with a screenshot function. (Any baby equipment companies reading this?) Then we wouldn’t have to deal with crappy cell phone photos like these: Five minutes later… And in case you’re wondering, YES she is deep asleep in both pictures. 🙂 I don’t know where she gets her sometimes-violent sleep […]
Lately I have been plagued with awfully vivid nightmares — ones that jolt me from sleep and keep me up the rest of the night. Take the one from a couple of nights ago, for example: J is killed in a horrific accident. At his funeral, his parents and I get into an argument regarding […]

But these majestic creatures have always fascinated me. I remember taking out tons of books on sharks from the library when I was a little […]
This week has been one of the longest of my life. I know that an appendectomy — a laparoscopic appendectomy, no less — is considered a fairly common and simple procedure in modern medicine. But with the pregnancy having slowed my healing time in addition to lowering my threshold for pain (both very common pregnancy […]
I am currently writing this on my phone while lying in bed at the hospital. Early yesterday morning I woke up to excruciating abdominal pain, similar to the severe round ligament pain I had experienced during my pregnancy with Claire. With this pregnancy being so similar to the last, I had believed myself to have […]
I’ve been battling a slight cold the past couple of days. Like my sister said to me over an email, “Only YOU would get a cold in the middle of this heat wave.” 🙄 Seeing as I’m still not feeling 100%, and that it is a Friday — in addition to being perhaps the hottest […]
I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the "About" page.
