There we were pulling up to Duke Hospital. While we sat at the stop light I looked at the enormity of the structure before us. The view was different for me this time as I was a passenger going to my one year check up. I never entered the actual hospital through the front doors. […]
So, today I turn 39. I keep hearing, “One more year and you are over the hill.” In some ways, I am pretty sure I rolled over that hill already. Last night at 7:00 I asked Trey if he would please go to store and buy me a puzzle. I wanted to do a puzzle […]
Does anyone else feel like they are in a holding pattern? I mean sure I get it, there will always be uncertainties in life. I understand we have limited comprehension because we are human. I get it already! But, oh the waiting process can be so frustrating leaving us feeling completely out of sorts if […]
Look at that precious child! She is a dancing princess! Wearing her tiara, fur coat, pigtails, pink boots, and princess dress…she is ready to party! I may be partial to the cuteness as she is my daughter, but she has taught me so much about living life. This child knows how to enjoy each moment. […]
It was brought to my attention that October is POTS Awareness Month. I have wanted to do a post on POTS, but honestly it seems overwhelming to try to condense POTS into one blog post. The confusion that surrounds the syndrome, along with the vague understanding by the medical community makes a concise explanation impossible. […]
“If your heart is broken, you’ll find God right there; if you’re kicked in the gut, he’ll help you catch your breath.” Psalms 34:18 If your week has looked anything like mine, the above photo accurately depicts how you feel right now. Some weeks are just hard. It’s just life and usually I take this […]
So, I didn’t actually watch the debate last night. It was a sick night with POTS and I was already in bed. This morning I woke up super early so I checked Facebook (obviously because that’s what you do when you can’t sleep…duh). The consensus was, “How in the world are these our two candidates?” […]
We live in a culture that is obsessed with outward appearances. There are those who do anything to stay thin and others who choose to rebel against societal pressures and celebrate their larger frames. For a smaller minority, weight and body image do not play a major role in their daily lives. But for most […]
So, tomorrow is my 14th Anniversary to my precious hubby. For those of you who don’t know, Trey and I were set up on a blind date. I had been on many blind dates so I wasn’t expecting anything amazing to happen. In fact, he was my second blind date that week. Plus, I wasn’t […]
Winter is around the corner and I cannot wait! Leggings, sweaters, sweatshirts, boots, snuggling under blankets with a warm beverage in my hand…I can envision it now! The heat no longer a factor in my daily living and with much hope I am anticipating my POTS symptoms calming down a bit. I even want to […]
