First Vaccine to Beat Cancer!

Do you have young daughters?  Imagine your daughter (whose name is Ms. Looking for a Clue) is an adult now, and she is having the following conversation with her gynecologist:
Dr. Gynie:  Your pap smear came back abnormal.
Ms. Looking for a Clue (L.C.):  What does that mean?
Dr. Gynie:  We need to do a biopsy.
Ms. L.C.:  Why?
Dr. Gynie:  It appears you [...]

Weekly Weight Loss Update

Well, as I informed you in the last update, I had gained two pounds over the holiday season.  I am pleased to inform you that I lost one of those pounds!  Slow improvement, but improvement nonetheless.
I’ve got a long way to go, but I believe I will reach my goal.  My husband tries to help me [...]

The “Microwave Popcorn” Mentality

I had a craving for some popcorn this evening.  So I popped some.  
If we’re popcorn eaters, it is probably fair to say that many of us would purchase microwave instead of regular popcorn.  The microwave variety is more convenient and it seems to take less time to prepare.  Just throw it in the microwave for approximately 2-4 minutes (or [...]

Thank God It’s The Weekend!

Exhausted is the only way I can describe myself at the moment. 
Classes started back this week.  Since I decided leaving all of my leftover work at school when we left for the Christmas holiday was in my best interests, I had to try to make up for it this past Tuesday.  Well, we (the faculty) had no opportunity [...]

Powerful! Gorgeous! Talented! Brilliant! Who, Me?

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant,
gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God…”
–Marianne Williamson
from A Return to Love: Reflections on [...]

Can A Christian Grow Spiritually Without The Church?

I remember when I first became a Christian.  It was January 1994.  I had recently graduated with my MBA and was working for a major surgical products company.  But I had also just ended a very tumultuous 2-year relationship which produced mostly pain.  It was obvious I needed to turn the steering wheel in a different direction - the most obvious way was [...]

Weekly Weight Loss Update

Yes, the holidays are finally over!  No, I did not meet my goal.  I gained two pounds.  What happened?
That egg nog kept winking at me.
That dressing wanted to dance with me.
That macaroni and cheese flirted with me.
Those sweet potatoes woo’ed me.
That darned egg nog just wouldn’t leave me alone!
And so I succumbed to the temptation.  As [...]

A Health Issue I’m Nervous Writing About

As you can tell, I haven’t been blogging for very long at all.  I try to write about topics that concern us women gaining and imparting wisdom relating to different areas of our lives.  I have been comfortable writing in this blog so far - I don’t feel like I’ve disclosed too much that will [...]

Weekly Weight Loss Update - It’s Christmas!

It’s Christmas Day!  What am I doing here?  I made the macaroni and cheese, dressing, and cabbage.  My husband prepared the turkey and the sweet potatoes.  We’ve got egg nog, wine coolers, cranberry sauce…And no, we did not have guests at our home this Christmas.  It’s just my husband, my daughter and I eating all this food!  (And [...]

Weekly Weight Loss Update

Okay…Here is my weekly weight loss update…
 
I recently posted that during this joyous Christmas and New Year’s season, it was my goal to ensure that I didn’t gain any weight.  Well, I can honestly say that I’ve met that goal!  My poundage has not increased!  In my mind, that’s very good considering that during this [...]
