When I went to see my GP, she noticed a spot on my back that concerned her, and recommended that I go see a dermatologist. Why was this spot concerning? –It hadn’t been there last year –It was very dark–seriously, probably the darkest spot on all of my skin –It was irregular in shape –I’m […]
I have mostly good news. To recap: I had 7 periods during the month of August. My naturopath and I were 99% certain these were caused by hormones and perimenopause. But we wanted to double check and make sure that there was nothing physically wrong that could be causing this. So I went to my
Finally having a good day today. I got up and did yoga this morning. It felt like a long time since I’d done yoga, and finally figured out that it had been exactly one week. Last Tuesday was the last day I’d done yoga. Now, I could have done yoga on Sunday, but as I
Had some emergencies to deal with first thing this morning. That’s okay. Shit happens sometimes. So it took me a while to get to any words at all.

Yesterday was a good day. Today is a good day. Life is good. However, I feel as though I’m still recovering from RCCC. I’m tired this morning, despite having a nap yesterday as well as sleeping well last night. Or as well as I can with a kitty who occasionally wakes me up. She will
I’d written a much longer blog post about the last few days, adding to it every day. But it’s too long and unwieldy. So instead, I’m writing a different post and summarizing more. The last few days – Wednesday through Saturday – were ROUGH. No getting around that. But I finally woke up and felt
As I think I’ve said before, I feel as though my world is still in flux, we haven’t figured out what the new normal is. And maybe that’s because I also have bad days physically, so I can never proclaim that “This is my routine that I do every single day.” Despite how
Nearly fell into a trap this morning. I had just finished making my tea and heating up some prime rib, was going to sit down and eat before I started working. Out of habit, I picked up my phone and was about to do what I used to do, go and check some blogs, maybe
