∞ In a repeat of last year when my I am Obamacare image went viral, this month’s recent re-surge in posting and popularity has once again caused my modest blog to go over my monthly bandwidth allotment. Overnight, my blog was shut down due to exceeding it’s limit. Obviously it’s back up for now but this […]

On October 5, 2011, at age 34, I went in for my Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy. It was unbelievably hard. Recovery was painful and slow. But, I was so thankful that I was able to get it in the first place. With a pre-existing condition and no health insurance coverage from my then day-job, no company […]

Been busy behind the scenes this past week working on restocking the shop with previously sold out pieces as well as a few new ones. I’m getting very close to my 1,000th sale milestone in my etsy shop. An amazing accomplishment given that I started it as a part-time hobby and turned it into my […]

∞ April 5th marks one and a half years or 18 months post op from my hysterectomy. And I felt it was a good time to do an in-depth status and update again. So many people find my blog specifically because of the healing progress entries I wrote. I’ve received many comments and emails thanking me […]

∞ Here we are and it’s already March. And I realize my intentions to actually sit down and write out a blog entry in my oh-so-neglected blog last month not only never came to pass, but I didn’t even come close. Handful of photo posts….and that’s about it. Sheesh. Just seems like I’ve been so busy […]

∞ JUST FINISHED PAYING OFF MY DOCTOR FOR MY SURGERY!!! I’m so excited. They were so awesome and they worked with me and let me pay it every month and I just talked to the billing lady, Donna, and made my last payment. I now have a $0 balance and I’ve successfully paid them back for […]

Good news is that we got Love’s car fixed Friday. We’re back to a two car household and the horrible, destructive whine of the compressor grinding itself to bits is no more. The bad news is that it cost more then we planned: $789.54 I had been planning on $700 so the extra hundred hurts. […]

Today is my one year anniversary of my Hysterectomy. It’s almost as surreal to say that as it was last year when it was happening. In so many ways, it’s hard to believe it’s been a year already. But in just as many ways, it feels like so much longer ago. I have never been […]

∞ Glamour magazine has been emailing me today to get some additional information and quotes. I wrote out two huge paragraphs but couldn’t help by summing it all up in one final sentence: And as a woman, I can’t imagine supporting a candidate or a party that so openly hates, represses, attacks, belittles and insults my […]

∞ Exactly one year ago today, I was doing my surgery pre-op. I had my final ultrasound with my gyno, registered at the hospital, was given my surgical date and time, met with the anesthesiologist and even had my living will/medical directive notarized. I was two days away from my surgery and these were the final […]

You might recall the I posted about a $188 bill back on September 13th. It was the leftover amount for the Radiologist when I went into the ER and was going into collection. It needed to be paid off within 30 days or it was going on my credit. Well, I’m excited to report I […]

∞ My famous (infamous?) I am Obamacare image is going around Facebook again. Thousands of comments have been left and sadly, almost a year later, the vast majority of people are still utterly incorrect in their beliefs about what it is, who I am, and what it’s all about. They utterly and completely are working from […]

Hot on the heels of paying off two bills the other day, I get a collection notice. This is the remainder of the bill from the radiologist during my initial ER visit on May 29th. I have less then 30 days to raise $188 to pay this bill off, or it goes on my credit. […]
