Ive got 3 hours. 3 hours to finish packing (really dragging my feet on that one), get myself to the airport, and take off for Texas. To see my Loo. And to work really hard on not melting over the nex...
There have been a lot of first dates over the last few months. After taking a nearly 7 month break from men, there was an obvious end to that dry spell when I least expected it. Suddenly, I was...
Or rather, today. After a very rainy weekend. I cant really complain though. I got to hang out by the fire with friends: And cuddle up with this little man: We made it out for a walk: Where my puddle...
Something happens around the holidays when you are single and living away from your family. Suddenly, everyone you know is inviting you to their holiday celebrations. And before you know it, you have...
I have been obsessed with this lately: I love the song. And I love The Band Perry. But I also love how the video reminds me of that old HBO show Carnivale. Did anyone ever see that? It only lasted 2 ...
It was over a year ago that I wrote a post titled “Hope Dies Last”. I had heard the phrase on an old episode of Dawson’s Creek, of all places. But it struck me. It stayed with me. And I nev...
First things first – I am WORKED. Seriously, Im not sure Im ever NOT going to be sore again. But today was amazing. Incredible. Fantastic. I woke up this morning nervous, and trying to fight that ner...
Once upon a time, I used to be fearless. I was that kid who never looked before she leaped. An adrenalin junkie at my core. I loved roller coasters and adventure. I played with the boys and lived for...
I’ve been saying it a lot lately… I feel like I missed the boat. As I watch all those around me get married and have babies and build their families that I am oh so envious of, it’s difficult not to ...
I would say I have a handful of these more regularly than I should probably be proud to admit. Places in life where I flat out fail when other women would typically be primed for success. Be it the m...
Ive said it before, and Ill say it again: This has never been my favorite day. Even before infertility, Mother’s Day wasn’t exactly a day I looked forward to. The truth is, most years I don’t even re...
... has made her way into the world. And she already has me wrapped around her little (very, very little) finger. Born last night, this little princess is just 6 pounds 12 ounces. So little, and so p...
It could be argued that I am falling in love. Quickly and recklessly with a little man who has absolutely stolen my heart. I adore him. In a way I didn’t even really know was possible. I will admit t...
I typically get a few e-mails a week from women looking for advice or information about endometriosis. Usually they are either women who have only recently been diagnosed, or they are women who have ...
I promise, the lessons will end soon. I swear it. After all, there are only 2 more “first races” left before now and surgery: the triathlon, and the half marathon. That’s right, I am officially only ...
I have been known to get a little TMI up in this joint. But lets just say… I’m about to cross a whole other kind of boundary. You’ve been warned. First, let me tell you – there is very little in this...
Baby number 2 should be here any day. At least, if her mom has any say in the matter - she will be here any day. Her due date is on Tuesday, but it seems as though the ball is rolling at this point. ...
Baby number one of three is here. And he is perfect. I have some adorable pictures from today (his birthday) but since his mommy is a blogger herself, I am going to wait for her to introduc...
Yesterday was the last of the baby showers. Three for Three. The first was the hardest, the second was bearable (if only because I had an actual baby to hold) and this one I anticipated as being even...
I am not fast. But I knew this. I have never been fast. I average 10 minute miles (sometimes a little quicker, and sometimes a little slower), and for the most part - I am happy with that. I ran 5 mi...
I had an interesting opportunity forwarded on to me this week, and I thought it might be worth sharing here. You know… just in case any of you currently traveling the infertility road are interested:...
That’s what he called it. A bump in the road. And then, I started to cry. I really expected Dr. Cook to ease all my worries and tell me this was no big deal. Which, he did. A bump in the road, that’s...
It’s that time of year again. National Infertility Awareness Week. That week when we shout from the rooftops what this struggle has taken from us for those who aren’t aware. Because let’s face it… mo...
I saw The Vow months ago with Dee. I thought it was a good movie, but I may have been one of the few girls who didnt sob her eyes out while watching. I dont know... it was decent, but it didnt b...
At least, not to anyone who has been around these parts for a while. After all, it was just two years ago when I divulged my crush on a pre-teen and my embarrassing love for music that I really shoul...
That’s the saying, right? The one that is supposed to signify how easy it is to pick something back up once you’ve done it before? It’s like riding a bike… meaning, you’ll never really forget how to ...
Sometimes, that’s how I feel. Broken on the inside. Dealing with this disease, this hurt, this guilt, this anger, this sadness… all in silence. Hiding it from the world, as I present my happy face fo...
It’s official. I am 29 years old. But I’m not 30 yet.I took the day off work, slept in (amazing what waking up at 9 instead of 5:30 does for my mood) and went for my first outdoor run of the season. ...
I travel a lot more for work this time of year, mostly around Alaska to various remote areas. Its hardly ever glamorous travel. But today, my work travel involved me driving a few hours sou...
It was a comfort food kind of day yesterday. Not only was I still recovering from my infertile PTSD, but I was also laying low with Jack in town, and trying to pretend as though we weren’t getting ye...
