Current Reads.

  I was a reading fiend these past couple months… here are a few that were on the list! If I Stay. By Gayle Forman I liked this book, but didn’t love it. Given the fact that there’s a movie based on the book and an awful lot of hype… I just expected a little

Currently.

Oh Lawdy – it’s been a bit. With that said, here’s a shot at what my life looks like, currently:

Let’s chat, over a cup of tea.

Things have been changing in casa de Stecker and we’ve been busy bees the past couple months.

So, I thought, instead of keeping all this business to myself, I’d rather make myself a cup of tea (you should make yourself one too), curl up on the couch with a blanket (because it actually snowed – A LOT – here this week) and have a little girl to girl chat.

PCOS: An Update.

I’ve had it on my mind to write an update on this whole PCOS thing for months now. Each time I sit down to write about where I’m at, what I’m feeling, what I know and where I’m going… I just clam up. I don’t know how to adequately put it all into words – the ups that make me feel like this is all just pretend, a flash in the pan – the downs that leave me swirling, scared and anxious.

Merry Christmas.

Oh, yes, it’s Christmas. There will be hot chocolate, smoked ham, rum cake and lots and lots of laughter. We might even throw in a few gifts too! Wishing you a very Merry Christmas from our house to yours! xoxo

Instead, I open several of them in different tabs, read through the words, make minor changes, hit “save draft” and exit out of the screen. Feeling no more accomplished than I did when I first logged in.

The end of my Google Reader Era.

When I found out this winter that my beloved reader was going away… a little piece of my online soul shattered into a million mourning pieces. I signed the petition and have up until this month refused to let go. What is life without a little hope? Am I right?

Remembering I’m lucky.

When I take the time to remember and pause for a moment to notice, my life is overflowing with goodness. No matter where I am, who I wish I was or what I think I’m missing, I need to remember that…. truly, truly, truly I’m so very blessed and so very lucky.

Let’s Chat.

I love all the tea time, coffee break and catch-up posts floating around… and I’m a big-time lover of lists, so merge the two and I’ve got myself a perfect blog post! Bam! So, instead of a Finally Friday post, let’s catch up…   [Getting in some after work baby snuggles last night] My Sisters
