JUST SAYIN’

(Warning TMI ahead) Welp so much for my long stretch of not being sick…the last time I was sick with something that WASN’T colitis was the stomach bug that hit me last April, and was the bug that kicked off the whole colitis debacle. I was sick Friday night, started about 1 am and I wasn’t sure if it was food poisoning or what (ate sushi with Martin and Theo around 8 pm earlier)…stomach cramps, then retching and vomiting, and then, oh joy, my old friend diarrhea. It’s Monday now, and still having that though the rest of it was...

THINKING OF SPRING AND PREPARING FOR PIE

I’ve thought about writing nearly every day of this month that we are already a week into, and even sat in front of the computer with the tab open to the blog admin page, but ultimately walked away without a post. I’ve got so much going on in every sphere of my life right now. It’s crazy time! Work has been nutso (as per usual; when is it not?) and I’ve had things to do in the evenings and on the weekends, and a mile-long to-do list in my head as well. Tomorrow is Pie Night and I have the...
