It seems every January brings this calm into our household. We hole ourselves up to hibernate, having grown tired of being social over the Holiday's. We find ourselves with little to no plans on the weekends and just the chance to be by alone. Which honestly, this is the first time we have fully had [...]

The Holidays Can’t All Be Perfect
I have always been one of those who really gets into the Christmas season. Once everyone leaves Thanksgiving night I declare it "game on" and I'm full on into the songs, decorating and shopping.

The Vacation-Dominican Republic
The day of my surgery I was in a hospital bed emailing my travel agent. We needed a vacation. Whenever life gets really tough for me, I take flight. I run somewhere that I can breathe and take a step back. By just booking a trip it gives me something to focus on. Not that [...]
Divorce vs. Miscarriage

Our anniversary was pretty tame as the Husband has been stuck working 80+ hour weeks and it's fair to say, he is exhausted. We settled for a [...]

And where do we go from here
I was ready to vomit in the parking lot of the hospital Friday. My nerves were getting the best of me when we were merely there for a last appointment with my OB/GYN. As my Husband reminded me, what could she possibly say that was worse than what we had already been through? True, just [...]
