Back in college, in 2004 when blogging was hardly even a thing yet, I was here. Blogging before blogging meant anything to anyone. You can look in the archives for my past writings, but it was much more like a journal in the past. When we started fundraising, I messed around with the idea of launching something new for this new phase of our journey but actually hated that idea. I am a sum of all of my life and so much of it is here already. So I'm keeping it here. At least for now.

My main focus these days is blogging about our newest journey into the bizarre and wonderful world of gestational surrogacy. Posts dated 2013 and forward will trend heavily toward that journey. I don't promise everything I write will be about though. There might be other things that sneak in occasionally.

Please come along our journey with us. As the saying goes, "The more, the merrier!"

Bookworm


I used to read a lot. I don't anymore. It takes a lot of effort now.


It's a sad thing as I love to read. I love to get lost in books. But when it started to hurt and become taxing, I decided it really wasn't worth the pain. So now, I read what I have to or what I want to or only what's relevant. Well, that and my Bible. I really wish I could do it more. I could do it more. I should. And maybe I will. I just wish it didn't feel like so much work.


But every now and then I read a book that impacts me deeply. Something I cannot put down. And then I remember the joy of reading...really reading. And just now I am reading such a book. This book is going to be more than worth the effort it is taking...and honestly, I have enjoyed it. It hasn't even seemed like so much work.


Every now and then a book comes along and it changes things a little.

This one, I think, might change things a lot.
