While it may not have officially been a holiday weekend, it sure felt like one! It started on Thursday with the first Alive at Five for the season.

In Memoriam – holiday weekends and me
In the past decade there was a run of not so great holiday weekends in my life.

Last night, I woke up to the sound of the wind howling. It was fierce and powerful reminding me of where I had been exactly 14 years previously - in labor, climbing the stairs at St. Peter’s Hospital. My progress that night was slow, despite it being my third time at that particular rodeo, and … Continue reading Fierce and 14
