Birthdays and Blessings

So as I alluded to in yesterday’s post, today is my birthday. Considering I nearly didn’t live to see my 27th birthday, it is a blessing to make it to almost twice that age (or as my mom-in-law put it, I’m “40+13″ today!) I’ve had a pleasant day, starting off with a card from my [...]

Sense of Accomplishment

After a rather rough week emotionally for various reasons, I’m quite surprised that I accomplished some goals this week. The year started off great, as you may know if you have been reading my blog since early January.
