Make Me Cry, The Zoo

Yesterday we said goodbye to Spencer, the craziest, quirkiest, wildest, most amazingly and frustratingly unique cat I have ever known. Inside this house he was incredibly affectionate but always into mischief… he was always getting into something and giving me funny things to write about. Like the time I caught him fishing in the turtle tank or the time he …

Remember the time when my husband got into my pants? Well last night he got to return the favor! Get your mind out of the gutter, if you clicked the link you know I’m not talking about that. Yesterday was 5 months since my surgery, and I feel like I’m in a total time warp. How on earth has five …

WOW, what a difference a haircut makes! Check this out. This was my hair loss before I cut my hair: That wasn’t even the worst of it, this was when it just began. There were days that I easily lost twice as much, like what I lost on this day: So after getting sick of it I decided to cut …

Don’t worry, I’m still talking about me! He hasn’t gone out and found another wife or anything, even tough I’ve been urging him to find one that likes doing housework. I could get into a little Sister Wives action if the other wife would do all the stuff I hate. No, what I’m talking about is my husband’s recent exclamations …

Well it’s been a month now since I first started noticing an increase in my hair loss, and it hasn’t slowed down a bit. If anything it’s gotten worse. The only good thing, if there is one, with this hair loss is that it’s happening all over my head rather than just on the top. With the Androgenic Alopecia that …

Today is a holiday in the Netherlands so I have my honey home with me. The weather has been beautiful so we decided to take advantage and go for a bike ride. We packed a lunch, grabbed an old duvet cover (mental note: buy picnic blanket!) and head off. We biked through Zuiderpark, where I almost died with envy for …

On May 12th my husband and I celebrated our 12 year wedding anniversary. It’s still hard to believe we’ve been together so long as I don’t think either of us feel old enough to have been married for 12 years. Wasn’t it just a few years ago that we WERE 12? A few days before we were clearing out our …
