Today Is A Milestone
My parents are celebrating 40 years of Marriage. In a time where marriages of longevity seem to be diminishing, there are still those living a blessed life of ups and downs and making it through them together.

Basement Finds
Lately I have been working on some cross-stitch pieces not baby related. These will possibly need to be framed unless I can figure one more option out. Until then, though, framing them may be easier. Upon my graduation from college my parents gave me a mat cutter. I had to learn as I did each…

Experience Versus Reality
Have you had an experience where it was pretty much nothing like the way you thought it should be? That was this morning for us! I know that things happen and we can’t always anticipate what will happen and each scenario with every patient. I have lived through this in Dialysis Clinics. We prepare as…

My Thoughts
I had a deadline that was nearing and today I had to once again face my ulcer and some things I wish I could put an end to reliving. However, things keep coming up where I have to keep regurgitating the past in order to somehow fix things in the future. God willing this is…
