Chronic Hope Series: My battle with Endometriosis
At last the time has come for me to start sharing my endometriosis story. It’s been 2 years since I last wrote in the blog and I have to say that I have missed writing! In the past I have started writing my story several times but life kept getting in the way. These past…

Our Journey To Better Health
There’s a lot that has changed since last year. SO much has changed! I apologize for the silence but I get quiet when a lot is going on. It takes time for me to process things and it usually takes my entire focus. The biggest change has been within me. This past year I’ve been…

Our 3rd Wedding Anniversary
Our 3 year anniversary is today, woohoo! It’s hard to believe it’s already been 3 years since we got married. It’s even harder to believe that we’ve been together for a total of 6 ½ years. Our 7 year mark will be in November, and I’m sure it will be here before we know it.…

Goodbye Work, Hello Marriage

All we can do is keep breathing
Just like that, April 28th has come and gone. Sometimes, I still have trouble understanding that Jacquita passed away a year ago. So much has changed. A year ago we were renting an apartment, we were exhausted from our jobs and from the entire situation, and we were scared of the unknown. We were different…

When Our Vows Were Tested
This isn’t an ordinary blog post about wedding vows. Don’t be fooled by the title. However, it is an accurate account of a morning that our vows were truly tested. You know, when people describe marriage to people who have never been married, they talk about difficult times like fights about finances, sex, and other…

New House, New Beginnings
I still cannot believe that we purchased a house. It’s been about 6 months since we first moved into our new home and I’m still baffled by everything that has happened. When we first heard about this house, I had recently quit my job and wasn’t sure if I wanted to go back to work.…

The Power of Empathy
Today, I want to talk about the importance of empathy. This is something I’ve wanted to talk about for the past year because it has really struck a nerve since my mother-in-law’s passing. In this post, I’m referring to empathy in meaningful relationships. Obviously, empathy is used in a lot of professions but I don’t…
