Why I would schedule a mammogram and a sleep study on the same day is beyond me. Obviously the day after a holiday weekend sounded like the right time too. Here’s your sign…Schedule that mammogram My mammogram was scheduled for 8:45 in the morning. You’d think that would be completely doable. Let’s see where exactly... Continue Reading →

I have never suffered from migraines. Headaches are rare. Usually a few ibuprofen and it’s gone. Yesterday was a different story. A whole different story. The day started out normal. Chuck and I did our normal Sunday grocery run. This usually consists of 4 stops. Costco, Aldi, Meijer and Sam’s Club. I know it sounds... Continue Reading →

In the past I’ve always started the year out strong. Healthy lunches, written out schedules, and the feeling of complete control in the organizational category. Who am I kidding? I’ve always been winging it. Just seems like I’ve faked it better in the past. First day of school Day one, I barely got up in... Continue Reading →

School starts this week. That means we all have some adjusting to do. The kids are going to have to go to bed before midnight and wake up before noon. I’ll be trying to pack nutritious meals for the first week and then I’ll cave and throw money in their lunch accounts. I’m sure there... Continue Reading →

I realized this morning that it’s been over two weeks since I’ve blogged anything. So here’s a quick recap. We celebrated my moms birthday, my birthday, my sons last baseball game of the season, a trip to the beach, pottery with friends, and the addition of 2 Guinea Pigs to our fleet, after an epic...

Almost 44, no uterus and hormones that don’t know what the hell to do. I had my blood drawn and that was sent to a lab. From there they made me... Continue Reading →

I don’t know why this trip feels like a lifetime but holy snot. I drove to Florida and it didn’t feel this long. The traffic hasn’t even been bad. I’m the worst rider in history. I get bored fast, I have to pee a lot and I’m a backseat driver. First gas station stop we... Continue Reading →

We’ve had this trip planned for months. Who could forget, almost a week in Nashville Tennessee in the middle of July for a baseball tournament? Of course, it doesn’t matter if I knew a year ago, or yesterday. The preparations probably wouldn’t be much different. For the last couple of weeks, I’ve been fighting a... Continue Reading →

Ugh Let me start out saying that I am fully aware of what a pain in the ass I am. I will never deny that when I’m sick, it escalates. Just when you think I couldn’t get any more ridiculous, I do. My husband isn’t new here. He knows that if I’m sick, the world... Continue Reading →

Before I had a son I never watched baseball. It didn’t interest me in the least. As a matter of fact I found it quite painful to watch. A close second to golf on the entertainment scale. That was until I had a personal investment in a player. I’ve been hooked since he took the... Continue Reading →
