Permeating Purpose: December 2013
http://permeatingpurpose.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 31, 2013. Since 7th grade Spanish, it was my dream to one-day visit Spain. Spring 2013, I studied abroad in Seville, Spain. I never thought in a million years that my sophomore year of college I would be in Europe. It was incredible (I want to keep this brief so I won't go into much detail, but here are some posts. here. And, in June, began this blog. It started off as Passionately Curious. And, now, Permeating Purpose. My time abroad has instilled in me a passion for traveling, experie...

Confessions of a Gila Monster: Show me how big your brave is....
http://www.confessionsofagilamonster.com/2014/02/show-me-how-big-your-brave-is.html
Wednesday, February 26, 2014. Show me how big your brave is. Just in case you don't understand where that title came from, you should listen to this song. I'll wait. Brave by Sara Bareilles on Grooveshark. OK, hang on, because shit's about to get real. Version of the quote by Martin Niemöller, photo from the. Holocaust memorial in Boston. Are you freaking kidding. Why is it OK to discriminate against any. I'm here to tell you that THOSE people are not Christians, nor is anyone who tries to tell you that ...

Confessions of a Gila Monster: May 2015
http://www.confessionsofagilamonster.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 12, 2015. Some Stuff I Read Since the Last Time I Wrote About Stuff I Read. It's embarrassing how much I've stalled on reading. I've started quite a few books but just haven't gotten into the rhythm. Someday. I did manage to read The Girl on the Train. By Paula Hawkins. If you are one of those people (like me) who doesn't jump on the hype train (see what I did there? I thought I'd get ahead of the game and read My Sunshine Away. Some suspenseful moments, but mostly I found myself thinking "j...

Confessions of a Gila Monster: Curing cancer, one cheap beer at a time
http://www.confessionsofagilamonster.com/2014/05/curing-cancer-one-cheap-beer-at-time.html
Tuesday, May 27, 2014. Curing cancer, one cheap beer at a time. For the fourth year, our neighborhood and friends participated in the Crawl for Cancer ( here. Are some pictures from last year). We had 30 people - there are roughly 5,000 total participants - and we usually have a team "draft" at our house the night before. This year, that also happened to be our friend Jen's 40th birthday, so we combined celebrations. Sunday Aaron wore his patriotic tie to church, as did one of the ministers:. May 27, 201...

Confessions of a Gila Monster: December 2014
http://www.confessionsofagilamonster.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2014. See ya, 2014, wouldn't wanna be ya. I think by now you all know that my answer to the above questions is an emphatic yes. This was the year that I found out I had cancer. Four surgeries and nine months later, I'm cancer-free and on my way to being healthy. I'm extremely fortunate and grateful, but still. cancer is cancer and it sucks immensely. And turned my life upside down in more ways than one. But there were some good moments, too. For the first (but not last) time!

Afternoons with you: July 2014
http://www.afternoonswithyou.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 29, 2014. A little bit of happy. Old spray paint-3.00. Kinda in love with this cute and cheap project from the other day. Brings all kinds of brightness to my little ledge. Just hoping I can keep them alive now, I don't have a very good record of growing things. Monday, July 28, 2014. I wrote a book. I'm a goal setter. I love goals. If I say i'm going to do it, I've made it a goal, I accomplish it. So, I wrote a book. I should also mention that I met my writing partner. Friday, July 25, 2014.

Afternoons with you: Hi.
http://www.afternoonswithyou.com/2015/05/hi.html
Wednesday, May 13, 2015. Remember a few weeks ago when I was like "I might not survive 'til May 9! Well, good news, i'm alive. I'm excited about life right now and I'm pretty pumped about a lot of good things that are going on! AND more than anything I'm proud of myself for pushing through a great deal of anxiety lately and accomplishing some pretty huge goals. WOOOOO! So this post really has no purpose other than saying, this too shall pass. And the will I make it. May 14, 2015 at 3:20 AM. And So I Did.
