Well, here we go again trying to put Humpty Dumpty back together. Surgery #3 for this summer is happening tomorrow (Monday, September 13). My incision came open for a second time, again at the 6 week post-op time frame. Unfortunately, our attempts to avoid the Latissimus Flap Procedure did not work. I will avoid explainingContinue reading “All the King’s Horses and All the King’s Men….(plus a website update)”

Pray for my Obnoxious Roommate!
So I have a new roommate. She has been living with me for about nine months now. She is getting on my nerves and I feel really bad about it because she really is awesome. It’s just that she is TOO awesome. She has SO much energy and wants to save the world or somethingContinue reading “Pray for my Obnoxious Roommate!”
Get Moving into March! (a new project)
Slip into March….Get Moving March…. I couldn’t decide which was catchier – but no matter the title, I got you here! I don’t know about you all but the holidays and January were a blur for me.

Cozy Closet update 2/16/21
Well everyone, January was a tough one – lots of not so nice anniversaries and then I lost my Dad to Covid.

“Mamma, I want to be two again”
When our youngest turned three this past year there was a moment where he said in a shocked and somewhat fearful voice, with tears in his eyes “I don’t want to be three! I want to be two!” He has brought this up at random since then and said it again this morning. When IContinue reading ““Mamma, I want to be two again””

I wish that there weren’t so many heavy things and decisions added to this Christmas season. I wish my body weren’t in such a state that we have to make some hard calls about our plans. I wish theContinue reading “Disappointed During Christmas”
Re-Gift your PJs and slippers to me!
Okay, admit it, we almost all end up with Christmas gifts we have no intention of ever using. Sometimes we overbuy or buy something and realize it’s the wrong size when it comes in. A lot of times those things happen to be loungewear. Well, never fear! I have a great solution for this unwantedContinue reading “Re-Gift your PJs and slippers to me!”
Holidays are hard
My friends who know me best have learned to understand, and some even appreciate, my scatterbrained, run in all directions at once personality. Watching me throughout a day is much like reading stream-of-consciousness writing. I seem to get a lot done, but it is very much If You Give a Mouse a Cookie style andContinue reading “Holidays are hard”

I Did NOT Cry Over Spilled Milk!
Once again, our life has not disappointed in providing humor and fodder for a good blog post. Let’s take a little trip back to Wednesday. I had to go to Atlanta (about a two hour drive) for a doctor’s appointment. The bookends were going with me so I had a little packing up to doContinue reading “I Did NOT Cry Over Spilled Milk!”
