Back in the Saddle

Posted on October 31, 2011 by bittenbythebug

Hurray, I did it! I managed to sneak a post into October before the month is over. (I’m sorry September…I really am.) I sort of feel like I’m cheating, writing this right now, as I’m technically home sick and not … Continue reading →

Posted on January 1, 2011 by bittenbythebug

It seems hard to believe, but 2011 has already arrived. And with the arrival of the new year, I’ve been reflecting on all that we experienced in 2010. 2010 was a year of some pretty big changes for us.  In … Continue reading →

Getting Better

Posted on December 9, 2010 by bittenbythebug
