About
I’m a woman with a stomach-ache which, just for the record, is totally different from a woman with a belly-ache. I’ve tried eating food, not eating food, taking antiacids, and therapy and still the stomach-ache persists. This is my next attempt to make it go away.
Also, I like making cupcakes and soup. But I probably won’t talk about either of those here.

I love your blog layout, but I absolutely love your writing style! I subscribed because I enjoyed reading what I have read so far and I do look forward to reading much more of your posts in the future!

Sighing I am so jealous of your talent.

Oh, my no! Thank you for the kind thoughts but this is not talent – It’s forcing me to get stuff out there. Thank you for stopping by and reading.

I saw your post from the forum. Nice blog layout-looks nice and enjoyed reading.I myself started a blog to document my process in therapy a little more.I am delving into books to see how I can become better and right the information I learn in a blog.Its actually a great way! For some of us we just have to share and write what we are going through.Wish you the best.I am subscribing to your site for sure.

Thank you, Charity – I appreciate you checking in and sharing. We’ll see how the self-therapy goes. So far, this is the longest I’ve stuck with it. It’s much easier to bury it, although more stressful long term. Good luck with your efforts as well.

The sentiment is entirely mutual. I’ve only read “Anti” so far but very much enjoyed it — and as a stomach sleeper, I’m wondering if I’d be better off forcing myself to change positions, something I’ve been unable to make myself do since I was heavily pregnant or when I’ve had broken bones. Thank you for visiting – I hope we continue to connect.

I really hope so too. I am very new to the WordPress site, but already I am loving it, because there are so many opportunites to read other writers whose styles I enjoy. It’s actually a little intimidating at times! But totally worth it. 🙂

Thank you, Gigi. You’re very kind and, after having visited your site tonight, I am a mutual admirer. I wish I were brave enough to include photographs. Perhaps someday.

Nice blog – agree that you write well. In my humble opinion, it would be better if you use the ‘read more’ link to make it easier to navigate your homepage, especially as your posts can be long!
Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the suggestion – I hadn’t yet taken the time to learn how to do that but did upon your suggestion and far prefer the way it looks. I am intentionally not obsessing about the length of the posts right now but had felt badly for how long they are. This is a great concession. Appreciate it.

Hi there! This post couldn’t be written any better! Reading this post reminds me of my previous room mate! He always kept talking about this. I will forward this page to him. Fairly certain he will have a good read. Thank you for sharing!
