Razors

Well today was the day for the removal of the rest of the demon polyp. I joked with the nurses about having my official “pain in the ass diagnosis.” I guess if I have to have an official diagnosis then I need a crown. Any reason to be a queen. I want a bedazzled set …

What Matters?

When I was in college, I had dreams of becoming a high powered attorney living in a big city with a big house, a fancy car, and the perfect life. While I was at my part time, minimum wage job, I would daydream of the day I could look around me and see my dreams …

Thankful in All Seasons

My grandmother was influential in my faith from as far back as I can remember. As soon as I learned to read, she would have me read Bible verses to her. The old King James Version didn’t make much sense to me then. I didn’t clearly understand the words in red much less why they …

Worthy

This blog post is for every person, man or woman, who has ever doubted their worth. Most of us have doubted that we are good enough at one point or another in our lives. At some point, we’ve expressed this feeling and have been met with supportive responses like “how could you ever doubt your …

Pain in the Butt

I don’t know how to even begin this. Plenty of people say that I’m a pain in the butt. Now I have a diagnosis to prove it. My colonoscopy has hopefully saved my life. When I went for my follow up from the colonoscopy, I felt like something was wrong. I knew my experience with …

Toenails

What an intriguing title for a blog. Curiosity just forced you to read this because you probably can’t imagine what is going to come out of my mouth. (Keyboard to be more exact but you know what I mean.) Those who know me personally know how much I love getting my nails done and know …

Tender in a Tough World

Most people don’t know the real me. I hide her away because she’s easily bruised and broken. She’s tender in a tough world. I have been blessed, or cursed, with eyes that see the world a little differently than most. I see deeply and I feel things deeper. With these eyes that see things deeper …

I Don’t Like This

Let’s start off by saying this is the first hour of Miralax. I am not amused. I don’t know anyone who would be amused. I’m just in to my third cup of this mess. My stomach has involuntarily moved like the alien was about to burst through. A stabbing pain rotated around my upper and …

Full Moon Blogging

Most everyone who knows me or reads any of my posts knows that I have a very difficult relationship with sleep. Most of the time, my body wants me to wake up long before its actually time to get up. This means that I'm usually awake while darkness still blankets the earth. Today was one …

Rose Gold Sunset

I love this time of the evening. It’s when the sunlight outside causes the pink in my curtains to reflect a pretty shade of rose gold in my bedroom. I almost hurry to bed early every night just to soak up the lushness of the colors. Between the roar of the air conditioning with its …
