9 Years
Today marks 9 years of life with diabetes and congestive heart failure for me. It’s been a crazy journey, and the events of the last month have been a reminder of just how fortunate I am to have come this far. Cheers, folks!
I Made it through HAWMC
Today is the day after I completed the Health Activist Writer’s Month Challenge and there’s one last thing to do: Recap HAWMC. Recap HAWMC. You did it! 30 posts in 30 days. Which was your favorite prompt? Which was the most difficult? Which ideas will you reuse? Who was your favorite fellow blogger? HAWMC ended yesterday and I’m proud to say that I completed it this time around. I had 30 posts in 30 days.

Like an elevator speech. You know, a quick introduction speech for those times when you only have a minute or so to tell someone who you are, what you do, and how to find more information about and get in touch with…
A Day at the Zoo
It’s day 28 of the Health Activist Writer’s Month Challenge and I’m in the process of catching up on some of the prompts. In the mean time, here are some photos from my trip to the zoo yesterday. This was the first time visiting the zoo since I bought the new camera. Enjoy. As always, if you like what you see, let me know. 🙂
