Mercury Rising…
My Doctors have been consistently encouraging me to sleep every single time I get tired, pushing for a "hibernation" type of existence lately. I'm a bad patient. I take my naps, none too gracefully, and a grumble and complain like a constipated bear. (I've never actually met a constipated bear, I hope I never do, … Continue reading Mercury Rising…
This is a travesty, and we should all be taking action worldwide!

I approached it with a bit of hopeful anticipation and a smidge of nervousness. This session was designed more for my education than for … Continue reading Pink Floyd…

What does all of this mean? More pushing forward, pushing through. My love and I … Continue reading Spring Cleaning…
Side Effects…
I have been keeping to my regimen of new supplements, in the hopes that they will help alleviate some of the lingering side effects from all of this turmoil my body has been through. I'm drinking my "green drink" daily - and how happy am I that my daughter enjoys it with me?! 🙂 I'm … Continue reading Side Effects…
