So, I had a breast reduction on January 24th, and these are my observations/reflections/thoughts. I’m going to talk about the surgery first, and then at the bottom, I’ll have my thoughts on it as well as the reasons behind it. I’ve done it this way so people looking for ( Read more... )

STOP.
I quit my job. This was done with sadness for the people left behind and with great joy for the company and job that were no longer my burden. I kept expecting to feel a sense of loss when I left. I never did. Just a lightness of being, a great relief, and hope. It ( Read more... )
