Hello, happy Sunday! At that time, as Jesus walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

Weekly Review 90
This was an eventful, yet tiring, week. There was commuting to Chicago, seeing an old friend, and two parties to attend. Overall, it was a fun one, but some of it I wouldn’t ever do again (can you guess which one? lol). On Monday morning I was up early. Around 4/4:30-ish AM. I was getting... Continue Reading →
Bulls Talk: RIP Stacey King
I have a whole other post for a Bulls Talk, but this is more important. Rest in Peace, Stacey King. Hearing his voice and commentary for Bulls games won’t ever be the same. A true legend. He was always so positive about the Bulls no matter what. Maybe that’s how we all should be. Please... Continue Reading →

Hello, happy Sunday! On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and proclaimed, "If any one thirst, let him come to me and drink.

Weekly Review 88
This week was full of healing, discovering new roommates, falling back into normal routines, and (finally) celebrating Lea’s birthday. It was a fun one! Early on Monday morning I realized I was not going back to sleep. At this point I had only slept a few hours, but since I wasn’t going back to work... Continue Reading →
Weekly Review 87
Hello all! For the first time in 87 weeks this will be a short and sweet weekly review. I’ve been out of commission this week due to medical reasons (I’m okay!), so I was resting the entire time. I spent my week binging four seasons of Home Improvement, eating, complaining, sleeping, going to doctors appointments,... Continue Reading →
