A Bit Of Gratitude… To the EMS Coordinator for the Buckeye Valley Fire District (who will remain unnamed here) for helping me resolve a longstanding billing concern related to our son’s ambulance ride to the ER back in 2016, THANK YOU <3.

Friends, Family, & Loved Ones: I am going to be taking the next month off from writing here. I am stressed. I am overwhelmed. There’s a lot going on, and we’re once again needing to support a more beefed up therapy schedule as our son’s new ABA provider has begun services this week. There are
My loved ones, I am going to keep this week’s post pretty short. I’ve been eating stress for breakfast, lunch, and dinner lately and I’d like to go regurgitate a workout and hunt through the internal wreckage for some glimmer of inner peace outside of the glittery shimmers gracing my eyelids.

Maybe I can’t tell you all the reasons my schedule is bleeding losses of self-care. Maybe I still can’t always get into every medical appointment I need to for myself. I’ve actually made two annual physicals in a row…but I have two other specialists I’m past due for visiting and a mammogram that will happen…sometime?
