When my children forget to push their chairs in, our resourceful dog figures a way to snatch things off the kitchen table.

I’ve been running this week. It’s been a hard […]

The Joy and Loss of Adoption

This morning as we were finishing up a leisurely breakfast, my children and I were talking about earning money for toys. A close friend of ours, who happens to be quite wealthy, doesn’t make her kids earn money. When “Lisa” wants to buy a birthday gift for her […]

Iron issues

So yesterday I went to my new hematologist. And she was wonderful. Wonderful in every way a doctor can be wonderful. She was so attentive and thorough. And i didn’t even have to “convince” of her anything. She believed me. She understood why I feel so fatigued. So […]

Time is the ultimate thing

Today is my iron infusion appointment. I didn’t sleep well last night. I think I’m a little nervous about my appointment. It is not logical, but it is how I feel. I hate when I feel vulnerable. What’s the big deal? […]

Ran 3 miles today. 12:15 minute mile if I didn’t miscount laps. Which might mean that maybe the iron is doing something? I dunno. I don’t feel like Im about to passout from running. I don’t feel as tired. […]

This and that

I am not too much into blogging lately. I’m thinking of giving it up. Count me in with the multitude of other people who lose the joy to the chore. Actually, for me, it’s just that I have lost anonymity so I don’t feel the freedom to blog the […]

Weekend Blather

Tonight is a sleepover night for my eldest. I am such a sleep nazi with my kids and so not able to go with the flow on the whole playdate thing. And yet, when they are going on… it’s really no big deal. I think I just have it […]
