About my blog and About me
This blog is my knee-jerk reaction to what is going on in my life. While I attempt to filter what is said, there are times that I am not successful, so enter at your own risk...and please don't take what you read personally. If you do, then you should probably not read this blog because it's never going to be full of happy walks through fields of daisies.
I grew up and currently live in the Delaware Valley. My heart is torn between Boston, London and Philadelphia, not necessarily in that order every day. I work in the dental field. While I am passionate about teeth, I am more passionate about God and what He's doing throughout the world. Teeth pay the bills, but my love for God wakes me up in the morning and puts me to sleep at night.
I write, tweet, facebook and check in on foursquare. I laugh, make people laugh and make people uncomfortable by saying what they, at times, refuse to face. I am passionate about helping people figure out who they are and find out what success is for them.
I could go on, but then why would you read my blog?

Strength
I guess God thinks I’m strong. Because He keeps piling stuff on. Good news first. Mom only has three more radiation treatments. She is getting her energy back, and more importantly, she’s got her spunk back. I spent last night … Continue reading
Hard decisions
When I signed up to be an adult, no one told me all of the nuances and responsibilities. I think that perhaps a handbook should be formulated to let you know that one day you may have to make decisions … Continue reading
Growing up in faith
I always considered myself an empathetic person…I thought that I understood people’s experiences and circumstances even though I had never walked a mile in those shoes. Boy was I wrong. I’ve talked to people who had relatives who have cancer. … Continue reading
Life is funny
It’s the holiday season…do de do… It feels like an entire lifetime since I last wrote something here…maybe it has been. My mom had her second treatment today. I spoke with her, and she sounded pretty good. She was good … Continue reading
Thanksgiving wildcards
It’s ironic to me that this week is Thanksgiving. So much to be thankful for…so many wildcards in the deck. I’m looking forward to the short work week followed by a whole 7 days out of the office. I may … Continue reading
Whirlwind of a life
There are so many things going on right now that life feels like a whirlwind. I don’t know whether I’m coming or going…but for some reason, I’m kind of…calm? Mom’s having surgery this Thursday. I think she’s more frightened for … Continue reading
Laughter in the cancer ward
So, I’m a few days late with the update on my mom. But here it is. Mom had the breast cancer lump removed on Monday. The lymph nodes on the cancer side tested negative. God is good. She’ll start chemo … Continue reading
Reaping what you’ve sown
I am generally a person who gives to give. I don’t expect repayment…I genuinely love to give. When people are down and out, I try to give them comfort, laughter, a shoulder on which to cry. When people are in … Continue reading
