This Is Where I Ask For Advice
My dear readers, I come today asking for advice. I struggle with a problem that’s been plaguing me since adolescence. I, for the life of me, seem unable to wash my face, moisturize, or regularly use makeup (not that I want to regularly use makeup–I’ve gotten used to not doing it, and it’s kind of … Read more
Update On My Husband’s Condition
I’ve been playing around with the Evernote application called Skitch. I’m new to the whole Evernote thing, and am discovering a bunch of different applications for it. I think it’s pretty neat so far. I figured that my experimenting with it was a pretty darn good excuse to post a fun photo and give you … Read more
Update On Micah
Micah is doing fabulously! We got to bring him home yesterday, which was a day or two earlier than the doctors anticipated. I’m so happy to have him home. He’s a little sore, but other than that, he’s doing pretty well. Now we just have to get him healed up properly, which will take a … Read more
Today Is The Big Day
Micah headed in to the operating room at 7:30 this morning. He was nervous, but he quipped, “You guys are going to have it a whole lot worse than me. You’ll be out in the waiting room all nervous and worried, and I’m gonna be out. Then, when I do wake up, you’ll still be … Read more
Open Heart Surgery
Micah has been in for his heart catheter procedure. He got out about 45 minutes ago. I’m still processing what the doctor told me what he found.

Testing Continues
Do a google image search on the word “frustration”. All sorts of hilarious images of people in varying modes of frustration pop up. Picture me or Micah as any one of those images.

Back On Track Again
I mentioned a couple weeks ago or so that I had gained a few pounds over the last couple of month and I was feeling frustrated. I told myself then that it was time to clamp back down on my eating habits, monitor my food intake, and increase my physical activity once again. I’ve done … Read more
Update On The Transplant News–We Are Suffering From Impatience-itis
It’s hard to not be impatient for news when your life and the life of your loved one could be so dramatically effected by him having a transplant. Micah and I went to OHSU again for what we thought was supposed to be the screening (which was scheduled for July, but then got rescheduled the … Read more
Re-Evaluating Goals
I mentioned in my last Friday Follow Up that because I have had so much going on, I have been missing out on walking as much as I want to–not to mention a week or so there that I was really in the doldrums, and my stupid hip problem that was making walking a literal … Read more
Thirty Day Challenges-TED Talk
I host another blog called Metamorphing Woman. I’ve been so busy with my Holly’s Walk blog, that I haven’t really had time to pursue my other blog, unfortunately, and that makes me sad. But as this blog here keeps expanding, I find I’m starting to cover some of the territory that I used to cover … Read more
