First: good thyroid numbers. Then: promotion. Third: House-hunting. And finally... a pre-approved mortgage, after some dicey moments on Thursday. What could possibly be left?...We found a house. We have totally fallen in love with it. Fingers crossed, we have one more home tour … Read More »

Thyroid Update: The Butterfly in My Neck
Why the butterfly in my neck? The thyroid gland kind of looks like a little butterfly as it sits on your larynx. The butterfly is also the symbol of thyroid cancer survivors as well (no, I don't have cancer, but I like the transformational inspiration associated with the … Read More »
And sometimes, the Universe looks out for you.
Moving to Massachusetts was one of the hardest transitions in my life. In the first six months, I did not adjust well. I was bitter, angry and resentful I had been uprooted from the relative comfort and familiarity of our three years together in Maryland. I wasn't finding a good … Read More »
On the road, part two.
"When life hands you leeemons, make leeemonade."The last 48 hours have been a blur of Spanish moss, the smell of flowers, hugs and kisses and wrinkled skin soft like old crumpled paper, and oppressive, blinding heat. At the heart of it all: the love of a family for their … Read More »

A Celebratory 28th Birthday Post
I'm not 30, but I'm certainly not 18 anymore. It's crazy to think of everything I've encountered in my life in the last decade. At 18, I stood on the precipice of adulthood. At 28, I feel like I'm on the precipice of the next big stage of my life. Like a galloping Rhiannon, I … Read More »
Infertility, I’ve got you in my sights.
Last year, I turned 27. I had just been diagnosed. For my birthday, I needed to reclaim some of what I had lost. I had captioned my birthday last year as "Guns. Massage. Meat on Swords." And I did all of those things. My husband was sweet enough to get me a spa package. We went … Read More »
