I’ve shared here before that I’m not much of a fan of April Fools day… the point of this holiday honestly escapes me. I often find that the pranks people play on one another aren’t really funny but often cruel… and it’s hard for me to wrap my mind around a day being dedicated to …
Sharing A Peek into My Residency Trip
I can honestly say I’ve learned so much since beginning my masters degree. Things I’m sure I’ll share more and more here as we move forward. But I thought I’d share a little bit about my residency trip while it’s still fresh in my mind. My trip was back in February and it was a …
Graduation Announcements!
One of the super fun things that I love creating for my seniors is graduation announcements! Once upon a time the only grad announcements you could get were the really boring formal ones that were all just text. They liked to say you could customize them with colors and such, but it’s still nothing …

PCOS, Insulin Resistance, and Food
So on Friday I talked a little about consistency and food and mentioned how PCOS can complicate that sometimes. Today I want to talk about that a little bit because while PCOS effects a huge percentage of the population, not very many people know about this side of it. So first a quick overview… PCOS …
Consistency
I don’t know about you guys, but I feel like life often likes to throw me curveballs. Obviously we’ve had some major ones… our house burning down, infertility, failed adoptions,… but I’m talking even just everyday life curveballs. (Like Miss Marlee’s ever evolving sleeping/eating schedule haha) And I think this is pretty normal. I think …
