EIGHT
During my two week post-surgery recovery period, I built this website. I told the story as it was unfolding because I was at a total loss and didn’t know what else to do. I had skipped into surgery on Thursday absolutely stoked to get… Continue Reading “EIGHT”
SEVEN
It’s been well over a year now since I’ve written anything of significance, aside from an Instagram comment or meaningful text here and there. Don’t ask me how. I truly have no idea. I used to find myself here so often. Helpless. Lost. Needing… Continue Reading “SEVEN”
Six
July 6, 2017. Six. Whole. Years. This morning I got up and got ready for work, grabbed celebratory Starbucks on my way in, and settled into my desk for the day. July 6 is usually a day I take off work and many years… Continue Reading “Six”
Infertile Myrtle

But nonetheless, ridiculousness ensued…without… Continue Reading “Behind the Treatment Mask: Bloopers”
Onward & Upward
What do you do when the nest beneath you begins to give way? The short answer is you fly… …which is fine if you’re a bird. And you have wings. And you know how to fly. Or you have instincts that fire and launch… Continue Reading “Onward & Upward”
Rest For The Weary
Ive had words on my heart for some time now, but much like our prayers sometimes, these words have felt more like groans rather than comprehensible thoughts. The blank page is a scary thing for me these days. It was my solace in the… Continue Reading “Rest For The Weary”
The Mind and The Man
“Where the mind goes, the man follows.” That’s a quote I placed neatly into my pocket in college and have carried with me ever since. The mind is a powerful vehicle that drives us from place to place, to the past and ahead to… Continue Reading “The Mind and The Man”
