It’s official. I’m booked to NC. I’ll have more to share as things progress but for now, I’m scheduled to arrive tomorrow. Dad’s surgery is scheduled for that same day.

No News… Ain’t Great News

August 5, 2010

No word from the hospital tonight so looks like I will be headed to NC sometime next week for my dad’s surgery. I will continue to be positive. It’s all I can do.

The Easy Road

August 3, 2010

I was a bit irritated earlier today when my blood pressure was up again at the doctor’s office. This time, my choice was medication (which I don’t want) or a fancy blood pressure monitoring machine. I chose the machine. I have to do fairly constant monitoring and keep a diary for the next eight weeks. [...]

Top Ten Foods for the Grill

August 2, 2010

Twice now we’ve planned to grill out but due to timing and weather conditions, we had to pull a last minute switcheroo and put it in the oven instead. Both times, it’s worked beautifully – surprisingly so! The first time, we did corn. A la Jamie Oliver, we put them, husks and all, in the [...]

Thanks, HGTV!

August 2, 2010

Thanks, HGTV, for saving me a considerable amount of time this fall. In just a few short hours, I’ve realized that I would never, ever watch any show featuring any of the designers left on your “Design Star” competition. This year, the designers left in the pack couldn’t be more annoying: the egos, the whining, [...]

The Long, Hot Summer

August 1, 2010

This afternoon, I took advantage of the slightly cooler temps to do some work in the garden. It was oddly depressing. I love to garden but I do it on my terms. I’ve always been one of those gardeners who just enjoys playing in the dirt. I’m not raising produce to sell. I don’t enter [...]

Every Little Thing.

July 29, 2010

Is going to be alright. Things are slowly calming down and making sense. Finally. Okay, I may be exaggerating on the making sense bit. But things are definitely better. Work is good. Busy but I’m not complaining. I barely have a moment at the office to breathe. That’s okay, though. Breathing is overrated. Coffee and [...]

Top Ten Running Songs on my iPod

July 26, 2010

I’ve started running again (you can keep up with my progress with the Daily Mile widget in the sidebar). This is a good thing. I need some good things right now. For today’s top ten list, I’ve compiled a list of the ten songs on my iPod that I love to run to these days… [...]

For Today

July 26, 2010

For today, I hate every single thing about my life. That’s a rarity for me to say out loud because, for all of my bitching, I am usually fairly content. I know that I’m a smart girl and I’ve made good, well thought out decisions. I’m usually able to laugh off the icky bits after [...]

I Should Have Gone To Medical School

July 23, 2010

If you’re reading this blog because you’re in law school, take my advice and drop out now if you’re planning to have kids. Your kids will eventually become ill and you will pay ridiculous sums of money in co-pays. It’s cheaper just to go to med school. Just saying. This week, I’ve made two trips [...]
