Oh So Regal FairyLoot Unboxing

It has been a while since I did a FairyLoot unboxing post. I think I have actually only ever done one other unboxing post.

Christmas at Landal Søhøjlandet

This year for Christmas we decided to not go visit family for Christmas, but instead, book a holiday at a holiday center in Denmark.

Eat To Live Take 2

So back in November, I made the announcement to the internets that I was going to follow the Eat To Live diet... and I failed within two weeks. This is pretty typical for me.

8 Years of Marriage

On October 31st, the husband and I celebrated our 8 year wedding anniversary. Well, we didn't celebrate that day, and we did exchange gifts the day before, but it was our 8 year anniversary.

Fibromyalgia is winning… and I need it to stop

I am still having the worst fibro flare up I have ever had and it just doesn't want to let up. I am in constant pain. Sometimes it is worse than other times, but for the past few weeks I can't remember a single moment where I didn't have pain in my body. But it isn't just the pain. The fibro fog ... READ the POST
