Hirsutism (HUR-soot-iz-um) is a condition in women that results in excessive growth of dark or coarse hair in a male-like pattern — face, chest and back. (Per the Mayo Clinic ). A few weeks ago, and I was so thankful you couldn’t see my beard in the morning sunlight. Something I’ve had to check my pictures for for years now. I struggled trying to decide whether I wanted to write this post. On one hand…if you know me IRL (in real life) this description shouldn’t come as a surprise, y’all can see my face. On the other hand, I’ve managed to sort of ignore the issue publicly and shining this direct light on the issue and therefore my face makes me uncomfortable as well, but I want my kids to know that people are all made differently and choose to deal with those differences differently and so here I am…telling my story in the hopes that in the coming year I have some AMAZING after photos! I’ve struggled to manage the hair on my face for over 10 years now. It started innocently enough, p
I can have the best laid plans…but when “doodie” calls…I drop everything and take care of it. I started a really awesome (I think it will be awesome) project two weeks ago for my horn.

I finished fixing the cover and wouldn’t you know it we started having problems with every other diaper cover we own… If you didn’t know already, we’re a little crunchy…when I was pregnant with P I knew I wanted to cloth diaper. I would stay up late throughout my pregnancy resear
Remember last post when I talked about doing things for myself and limiting the time I work on things for others? I've been trying to utilize the "Pomodoro Technique" more. I was introduced to this term and time handling method a few years ago, and I've found that when I feel overwhelmed or get too bogged down in a project (whether for myself or for others) this really helps me to limit my brain power and keep things fresh. For those unfamiliar : The Pomodoro Technique (per Wikipedia ) is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo [1] in the late 1980s. [2] The technique uses a timer to break down work into intervals, traditionally 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks. Each interval is known as a pomodoro , from the Italian word for ' tomato ', after the tomato-shaped kitchen timer that Cirillo used as a university student.
