One of the biggest pet peeves of having pcos is never knowing what’s going on with my cycle. Having no rhyme or reason means my period can (and has) shown up with no warning, at the most inconvenient times. Many pairs of cute underwear have paid the price. So when Kotex offered to let me [...]
The last time we had a party at our house, poor Ben was stuck behind the grill for hours, trying to keep up with the food demand for burgers and hot dogs . . . and really, a party isn’t any fun if you can’t be with everyone else, enjoying it, right?! Now that the [...]
I started a new job this week. An outside-the-home, actually talk to other people face-to-face, with a regular paycheck kind of job. It’s the final requirement for the organization that helped me get a wheelchair accessible van. In the midst of starting training, I’m also finishing up the last month of my current online, contract [...]
This is a sponsored post for Kleenex. I got an unexpected call from a friend while I was out shopping the other day. Instead of her normal cheery self, the voice on the other line was hysterical. A worst-day-ever stress had left her a sobbing mess. After a few minutes of venting, calming down, and [...]
With the weather warming up and Cinco de Mayo right around the corner, I’ve been in the mood for a really good margarita. While the usual celebrations around here on May 5th are minimal at best, it seems every restaurant and bar on Earth has a sale on margaritas. That in itself is reason enough [...]
If you follow me on Instagram, you probably saw me post a couple days ago about some new goodies that came in the mail from Purex. As a Purex Insider, I got a chance to try out the new Purex® No Sort™ for Colors Detergent and share my thoughts. If you haven’t seen the commercial yet, [...]
A few months ago, I introduced you to a company that helps couples get pregnant by improving the environment for proper sperm capacitation. Since this was a totally new concept for me, I did some research on what exactly sperm capacitation is – and why it’s important for anyone trying to get pregnant to know. [...]
After ordering our new sofa and coming up with a color scheme, the next step in our home renovation project was to start thinking about the fun accent furniture pieces. Frankly, it’s pretty much all we can do until the weather starts warming up so we can get ready for flooring and painting. The first [...]
Disclosure: This post contains my Rivet & Sway affiliate link. Since doing my original review of Rivet & Sway glasses over a year ago, I’ve had tons of compliments on my Rizzo frames. I’m getting ready to order a second pair, which is why, as a R&S ambassador, I’m super excited to share a sneak [...]
It’s been so long since I’ve used this blog to talk about personal stuff, I honestly don’t even know where to begin. The last month has been really hard. Really fucking, emotionally-shattering, mind-numbingly hard. Death, divorce, birth, adoption. Some happened, some were just words tossed around, and some were lies I told myself were better [...]
