Zooming in and Zooming out
The last few months have been trying. Lots of juggling, no new experiments, just keeping my head above water. That’s because I have a life and it takes priority. That doesn’t mean I ignore diabetes, far from it. It means I work extra hard to keep an even keel. I double down and get laser focused. This means sticking to routines, keeping up with … Read More Zooming in and Zooming out

Beam me up Scotty
Something not many people know about me is that I am obsessed with sci-fi and dystopian stories.

Chair yoga for everybody
There have been two times in my life where no matter how much I wanted to I couldn’t do yoga. Near the end of my pregnancy and 2003. Late stage pregnancy for me was a killer.

Every day is a perfect day
One of my husband’s axioms is, “Every day is a perfect day. It just depends on what you do with it.” I love it. And it’s true, it’s up to me how I navigate this thing called life. Take last week when we moved interstate. You might be thinking we packed a moving van, moved into a lovely house and spent the week unpacking … Read More Every day is a perfect day
