Other uses for common objects

I’ve previously written of my love for my Endofemm heating pad. This pink corn-filled wonder has it’s own place on my desk so I can conveniently get to it when needed. Well, my husband has been suffering from wisdom tooth pain and will be having extractions tomorrow. Saturday he had been in pain [...]

Growing up is hard to do

I just registered Little Endokid for Kindergarten. I’m bawling. I chalking it all up to hormones, but I know it’s just mommy-losing-her-kids-to-the-world-itis.
In other news, I read a post about bloggers getting books deals. I would like to add, for any publishers swinging by, if you offer me one I’ll take it. I could use the [...]

If it’s not one thing it’s another

My endometriosis is being a literal pain in the bum. I can’t even go to the bathroom without knowing “this is gonna hurt.” And [...]

A Thank You Note…

To my readers, I want to say thanks. It encourages me to be as open and honest about this terrible disease as I possibly can when I’ve gotten such wonderful support from all of you.
I want to especially thank Endogirltoo, Pantherswin, and Kea for their kind comments on my “Who is Endochick?” page. I’m glad [...]

Pink Eye and the dance of misery

I have pink eye. The “highly contagious” kind. The “put these drops in your eyes every four hours” kind. The “yep, no work for you today” kind. Ugh.
I feel miserable enough with this cold, and while I would love nothing else but to stay home today and work on school work, having been told to actually [...]
