Today was a perfectly lovely day. I woke up late, which is the way it should be. I like sleeping in! I got ready and had a tasty bowl of oatmeal! I sang soprano in the choir! I love singing in the choir. I love singing in the choir! Then… across a crowded room… inContinue reading “The Every Other Day Diet”

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!! I wore green. I ate a shamrock shake. That was the gist of my celebration. I need to work through something serious. I moved out to Utah for two reasons. Both were incredibly legitimate reasons to leave a good job. 1) I wanted to pursue things with Chris. I knew I’dContinue reading “Plans Schmans”

It’s been a really long time since I blogged. Sorry! Things that have developed in the past few weeks: 1. I got a roommate. I decided that I needed help paying the bills and this friend needed a place to stay. She’s wonderful! She’s improved the place immensely! It’s been great! 2. I started aContinue reading “February Update”

Today was a good day. I didn’t go to bed until 1 am. Not wise. I got called this morning at 8:30am to sub for a class that started at 8:25am. Yikes! I threw on some clothes and ran to the school. I was worried about the assignment. It was a middle school classroom ofContinue reading “A Long Happy Day”

Life is such a funny thing. I haven’t blogged in a while because I’m working through a long contemplative place and really–you don’t want to hear about it because it’s rather boring. I turn 33 tomorrow. I don’t have much of a problem with getting older. I still look young. My friend Kris took headshotsContinue reading “I give up”

On Thursday I woke up hoping that all would be well. I rolled out of bed and decided to shower. I left a message on my mom’s phone asking for some groceries–applesauce, gatorade, and bananas. Showering is a bit of a marathon. It requires standing for at least ten minutes. I was so afraid IContinue reading “Going from Bad Crazy to Good Crazy”

It is so easy to believe that winning the war is impossible. It is so easy to believe that losing would be so much easier. It is so much easier to believe the rhetoric and the logic… and stop hoping. But this is the side I chose. This is the side I’m on. This sideContinue reading “Source of Power”

I had a fever ranging between 103 and 101 until Saturday. Heather and her husband Michael came over Thursday night and he gave me aContinue reading “An Update”

I walked into the free clinic near my home a little sweaty. I go back and forth between hot and cold–and this was one of the sweaty times. I tried not to get in anyone’s way. The place was packed with people. Nurses and doctors in different colored scrubs– smiling and laughing patiently speaking withContinue reading “The Maliheh Clinic”
