My days are flying by and I feel like I have almost no time to write my blog anymore. It's really great in one sense, because it means I'm living life so much that I don't have time to document it. But I also want to document it so I may look back and see…

11-24-19 It’s my bday!
This weekend has been an absolute blast and I could not ask for a better birthday weekend, especially since it's my first one without Gene. On Friday, my work closed our office at 12:30 pm and we all went to Dave and Busters for a holiday party. I know it wasn't for my birthday but…
Random thoughts of 9-30-19
Happy news at the doctor's today - my platelets continue to go up! I will take 10 mg less of steroids for the next week in hopes that the platelets continue their soaring pattern. I even had a brief but lovely conversation with the lab tech about the Botanic Gardens which was a great distraction…
Apartment living
Elisabeth's and my apartment is really coming together and I am loving it. Having a clean, beautiful space to come home to and chill in really helps and lifts my mood. The teal couch was a fantastic choice too, fyi. The both of us have done a really exceptional job of keeping our home clean…
Couch, jobs, & divorce
We have a couch now! It got delivered yesterday and I love it. It's a brilliant teal, fits three people, and is comfortable. I finally feel like Elisabeth and I can start inviting people over to hang out. Who wants to come over?! But more than that, it means that our apartment is really a…
Kaitlin’s visit and my day
Yesterday evening Kaitlin came over and spent the night! I am so grateful for her and Kevin. We ate dinner and then she taught me how to decorate sugar cookies. I had tried a few years ago but had trouble because 1. I didn't know what I was doing and 2. the icing we made…
My day 8-28-19
Today was definitely a happier day than yesterday. I slept a little better and I exercised, both of which help boost the mood. But, I also got to see three of my favorite people: Kaitlin, EG, and Ollie! How can that face below NOT make me happy? The past two times I've gone over I've…
My day 8-27-19
My feelings hit me kind of hard today. I don't know if it's because I took a benadryl last night and I woke up kinda groggy. Or because I didn't really have plans today so my mind was allowed to wander more than normal. Or if there's no reason at all. But I've felt sad…
Work and home life
Today was a slightly long day at work. It wasn't work heavy - far from it actually - but it was still long. I supported a network meeting today where I watched each school give a presentation about themselves. It was interesting because I learned more about the schools (the purpose was to sell their…
Black – a play
Last night I went to an educational performance by the Curious Theater Company. My work has set up what we call EdTalks (get it?!), to look at and discuss racial inequalities in our school district and how to improve and they partnered with Curious to put on a show. When I learned that this one…
