We have had all of the blinds in our house since we moved in...and who knows how long they were in this house before that! They are old and discolored and are all in need of a major refresh but the cost just hasn't been in the budget. We decided that when we were...

If you didn't know, I had 2 ovarian torsions during my pregnancy with Graham. With each ovarian torsion, I had surgery. I should have written things down right away to remember everything exactly but I didn't. It was very jarring both times and mentally exhausting. I...
