You Know I’m Feeling Better When…

My mom called me a couple of days ago and asked me, "Did you really stay up until 3 am working on a website?"  Why, yes I did. I've been feeling great and aside from the little scar at the base of my throat, I hardly feel like I even ha[...]

Post-Op Notes and Breastfeeding After Surgery

In case you missed my note on Facebook, I got the best news possible when I awoke from surgery: the nodule was benign, which means I still have half a thyroid and am not expecting to have to deal with radioactive iodine.  I couldn't h[...]

Drawing a Line

There are moments in life when a line is drawn.  Moments that have a very distinct before and after, and that completely change the course of our lives.  Most days life is a blur of tiny changes, growth, and gradual movement[...]

This and That

I have lost track of what has been said and what hasn't.  The last few weeks have been so filled with ups and downs, good and bad, big, exciting moments and little wonderful ones. Did I ever update you on our house?  We went up to Gill[...]

The Latest Path in Our Journey

The last few weeks, we have found ourselves walking down a very unexpected path.  The short story is that I have a nodule on my thyroid for which I am about to undergo a second round of testing to hopefully rule out cancer. The longer v[...]

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. 😂
