Under Appriciated Talents
The week before last I got one of *those* calls at the office. The number on the caller ID was my GYN, who I’d spent some quality stirrup/awkward banter time with just a few weeks prior.

Heart Bypass Surgery And It’s Unexpected Impact
Not much makes me want to bolt. Life has thrown me some pretty massive curve balls over time…as it has many of us…and I tend to take the hit and then put my head down and push through. So, that’s why I was the most surprised of all to find myself in a situation a [...]
