I finished July with 19 ARCs left to be read. Happy Saturday! I am so ready for autumn and everything that comes along with it: the scent of woodsmoke in the air (from fireplaces, not wildfires), the leaves changing color, chilly weather, switching from capris and sandals to […]
It felt like July went by so fast! I had a pretty laid-back month, even if my weeks have been busier now that I have to drive Mom and accompany her to all of her appointments, and I’m currently working on updating all of her providers to include […]
I’m glad that May was an easier month for me, because it gave me some power to get through the stressful month of June. I spent a lot of time preparing for and having procedures, getting bloodwork, and visiting treatment providers. In between, I prioritized rest and relaxation […]
Can you believe that it is already April? This year is going by fast, and a lot of things happened in March. I had some ups and downs, but you can find out more about what March was like for me here, in my State of the ARC […]

Happy December! November was a really fun month for me—I was so excited to finally take a vacation and refresh my spirit. I hadn’t realized exactly how burnt out I was becoming until I had a break from my regular life. I’ll be returning home this week, and […]
August has been hot and humid here in New York, just like it has been basically everywhere. I’ve still been spending a lot of time inside the house, but lately I have had fatigue that is off the charts, combined with nighttime insomnia. It’s really difficult to function […]
I had a minor surgery on my shoulder the first day of May, so I spent a lot of the month recovering. However, it did have the unexpected bonus of allowing me more time to get reading done. I did manage to get out of the house for […]
