defining the circles that make me whole
Gotta take care of me tooPosted by Alli on March 26, 2011
Back when I thought the year of 2010 was going to be the year of me (which turned out to be a joke), I was gearing up to have some surgery to help me be a better me. Well, 2010 ended up being the year I didn’t really think about my physical health that much. [...]
18 days in, a health reportPosted by Alli on January 18, 2010
When 2010 started, I thought I knew what was up. I wrote: Health- The 2010 picture of health will be the main focus for the first quarter of this year. This is because I’m having surgery sometime this month (more on it later, and it isn’t what you might think) and I hope this surgery [...]
This is post 667Posted by Alli on November 17, 2009
I looked at my wordpress dashboard and it said I had 666 posts. So, I had to make one more to change the number. I’m still sick, but I can tell the medicine the physician’s assistant prescribed has helped. Let’s all say a little word of thanks for codeine. I got some good sleep. I [...]
Giving in- I’m sickPosted by Alli on November 16, 2009
I declare that if someone is going to get sick with an illness that will cripple her while performing mother/ wife duties, the illness should definitely start with a FEVER. Because if it starts with a cough after a brisk walk in the post-Ida wind, followed by achiness blamed on working out, then I the [...]
(Not quite) Wordless WednesdayPosted by Alli on September 30, 2009
D and Fuller spent the weekend away. It was hot and D decided to spend some time in the sun without a shirt. He asked Fuller to put the sunscreen on his back. And this is what happened: I see a profile of a face, looking to the left. I also see the reason why [...]
considering fat acceptancePosted by Alli on September 15, 2009
I went to the doctor a few weeks ago for a physical. It was my first non-ob visit since Tebow was born AND since I had quit nursing in the last couple of months, I was going in with out baby-related excuses. I was going in to see exactly where I stood in Health category [...]
Double Up :: Adventures in Freezer CookingPosted by Alli on August 2, 2009
The Moms Group I’m involved with usually has a theme during the summer months. This year we settled on “cooking.” Topics varied from quick cooking, preparing summer veggies, and our pantry staples. We had some great discussions and fellowship this summer, making our time together to be pretty memorable. I guess because of the weekly [...]
When did I become a night person?Posted by Alli on July 28, 2009
Last week was an exhausting exercise in routine… we got up every morning and were out of the house by 8:30. By the end of the week I was thrilled to not have that pressure on me every morning. And for the last two days, I’ve managed to remain in my PJs until after noon. [...]
Just keep movingPosted by Alli on July 22, 2009
There are times when I don’t know my up from my right. I mean, I don’t know my left from my down. Or something along those lines. It’s what sleep deprivation will do to you. To be fair, the type of sleep deprivation I’m experiencing lately isn’t the kind where you find yourself seeing the [...]
Three months agoPosted by Alli on May 18, 2009
Three months ago, around 4:30 in the morning it was raining. I know because Damon and I were trying not to get my pillow wet when we loaded into the car. Three months ago, a little before 5 a.m. I met a woman who handed me a bunch of papers to sign, clipped a piece [...]
