My Health Journey: Parte the Firste

I know, Christmas time might not be the best starting point for a *ahem* reshaping of my body and diet, but I’m nearly two weeks in and no going back. Unless I eat seventy-five Oreo’s, but still. Before we go any further, a point of clarification: Weight is not my sole concern. In fact, it’s actually […]

Super Fancy Giftaway. See what I did there?

It’s a GIFT. It’s a GIVEAWAY. It’s a– well, technically, it’s a portmanteau, but in American parlance it’s where you smush words together to make something seem witty or memorable. Regardless, here’s the deal: stop by my Facebook page and like or share the post (and the page, while you’re at it): Facepage! Like here! And, […]

A Time of Thanks

2017, we hardly new you. We’re almost through the year, reaching the heart of the holiday season here in the United States. It’s a time where old grudges should fade, new kindness begins, and we share thanks with everyone we hold dear. And those we don’t. This has been a year of transformation for me, […]

I lost a parent. I gained some family.

Dad died last month, and it’s been a lot of things. It was closure, and sad, and frustrating. That was in the first ten minutes, and then it settled into my bones and became real. I went to Iowa for the funeral. I connected with people who are my flesh and blood, but have never […]

My dad passed away.

Dad passed away last night. He’d been fighting cancer for six years. Life is going to change a lot even if I think it won’t. He was a complicated man who never truly recovered from the loss of his wife. When mom died twenty-one years ago, we lost our family despite our best efforts to […]

Cover Reveal and Death By Pushup: September

YEAHHHHHHH.   New book in three weeks. New cover? Now. Doom brought on by pushups? Soon. I’d like to say more, but my “side-man-boobs” hurt every day and there’s no end in sight. I feel as if there is something happening to my body, but I’m not exactly sure what it is. There are lumps– also […]

Recharging Your Spirit: Illinois Version

What I did on my summer vacation, by Terry. We went to Illinois! Land of Lincoln, corn, wheat, soybeans, cows, people with Scandinavian names, and the finest breakfast pizza in this wing of the galaxy. But I digress. First, some background. This is Uncle Leon (of Leon and Cindy Oleson Farms), along with my enormous […]
