It’s been a long month. Longer, actually. All the doctor tests came back normal. I had a sonogram to check for fibroids or lesions, and there were none to be found. The doctor talked with me about my results for my lab tests, all normal. He said it’s good because it rules out all the [...]

Tomorrow’s date is etched in my mind (September 15th). It’s the day that I found a text message on my husband’s phone that drastically altered my life. A simple “It’s suppose to rain in ATL this weekend, baby.” had the power to rock my world to it’s foundation and turn it upside down. Two years [...]

Someone I know linked a tumblr called ‘Tea Party Jesus‘ on their Facebook page today and I’ve been scanning through the crazy all day long. There are 34 pages of postcards with racist, homophobic, sexist, classist, and absolutely ridiculous literal quotes there so you may want to make sure you haven’t met your daily quota [...]

California just passed a law requiring that gay history be taught in public schools. When it was mentioned on the news I didn’t have much of a reaction. A slight smile, perhaps, but it didn’t seem like anything major. I spent a few hours sorting through the kids clothes and rearranging their bedrooms and then [...]

Skipping a period causes the next one to be twice as bad. Skipping more than one makes the one you finally have ridiculous. That’s how yesterday felt. My hormones were surging and everything kept going wrong. In retrospect, none of the things that happened were all that serious, but they were amplified by the circumstances. [...]

I’m sitting on my living room couch right now, feeling more than a little bit guilty for not being able to make it to the counter-protests against the Westboro Baptist Church in Savannah, GA this morning. I’m originally from Hinesville, GA and spent many, many weekends visiting that wonderful city. It is a beautiful community. [...]

My friend, Heather, directed me to an article about a photo in a J. Crew catalog that sparked a lot of criticism from a writer for Fox News. With the attacks Dr. Keith Albow lodged against mother, Jenna Lyons, you would think that she had neglected and abused her little boy, Beckett. Yeah, well, it [...]

This post may bore some of you. It’s about calories. Be warned. I bought a BodyMedia Fit (from Costco for $235-ish. Best price, hands down, for the unit, 12 months subscription, an extra armband and 3 skins.) It’s this little armband that you wear on your left arm that uses all sorts of things to [...]

A couple of weeks ago, my sister and I were leaving the mall in Warner Robins, GA. We saw a poster that stopped us in our tracks. Here was a black and white photograph of a beautiful little girl with a sad look on her face. It was deliberately made to look like a mugshot. [...]

It’s been about 8 months since I started putting in a lot of effort on losing weight and getting in shape. I haven’t made any new progress since January. I’m still hovering around 25 lbs lost, though I’m pretty pleased that I have maintained it at least. I’ve been keeping pretty good track of my [...]
