Organic Jill: February 2011
http://strongerthanyouseem.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 5, 2011. Wow, it's only been 7 months since my last post. Or has it been longer? Well coincidentally (or maybe not so much), just one day after deciding to leave Facebook, I find myself looking for something to do, so here I am. Hoping to distract myself with all the right things this time. And since it's been about the same period of time since I've done any writing at all, I think it's time I kick it up a notch. In the smallest of moments, life can flip you upside down. September was...

Organic Jill: June 2010
http://strongerthanyouseem.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 17, 2010. The Soundtrack of My Life. I'm sitting at my desk listening to classic tracks I listened to when I first met my now husband. The songs take me back down a winding tunnel of time; back to the time when I was first discovering love and what it meant to truly care for someone. Mine starts with the Fred Penner. Classics like The Cat Came Back. Soundtrack. In my tween years TLC's. And the dreaded Ace of Base made an impactful. Maker of music which rocked my inner soul. I remember ...

Organic Jill: June 2009

Sunday, June 28, 2009. But what about the other types of losses we have in our life? How do we go about recognizing and honoring those losses? The death of a beloved pet. A miscarriage. The inability to even conceive. As a society we haven't really established a process of dealing with these losses. And how do we go about dealing with the loss of someone who still walks among us? A broken friendship. Severed family ties. How are these losses dealt with? Are our feelings of loss really accepted? As a Chri...

Organic Jill: April 2009
http://strongerthanyouseem.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 29, 2009. I've been thinking about this a lot lately.well for about the last year anyway. And upon the release of the swine-flu "outbreak", it brings the issue to mind once again. It is perhaps one of the most debated and controversial issues of parents today, or then again maybe some people don't think twice, I don't know. But it's a big one with me. To be blunt. I don't do it. At all. Not a single vaccine in my little girl. And here's why. Now, I may think differently if it was just.

Organic Jill: August 2009
http://strongerthanyouseem.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 10, 2009. Have you ever thought about where your life is leading? Okay, well I'm sure the answer to that is quite simply "Yes, Organic, Jill. Duh", or something to that affect. But I mean have you ever really thought about it? Each step. Each experience has made you the person you are today. This person right now who will someday do something great. Or so we all hope. So, if you feel like saying a little prayer for me, that would be much appreciated. I'm starting to get antsy again, as...

Organic Jill: My Plan for a Longer Summer and Reduced Economic Stress
http://strongerthanyouseem.blogspot.com/2009/07/my-plan-for-longer-summer-and-reduced.html
Wednesday, July 22, 2009. My Plan for a Longer Summer and Reduced Economic Stress. After suffering through yet another unimaginably and excrutiatingly LONG winter, I have come up with a 10 year plan to ensure that Old Man winter never disturbs us again. As an added bonus, many of my "solutions" can help take us out of this economic downturn and reroute us n the road to global success! It may have some undesirable consequences, but I think overall, it may be worth it. Eat Shark Fin Soup. Fruit should be p...

Monday, April 4, 2011. As I alluded to in my now once again distant blog post, God does have a plan for us. It's amazing to see the work He has done on our lives over the last few months. And where to start with His greatness? Well, as I mentioned before, September was a particularly difficult month for us. But just as the month began with great disappointment and pain, it ended in surprising good fortune and greatness. And me insisting on getting blood work drawn to test both my progesterone and HCG.
