My Battle with Basals: Day 2 - the attempt at fasting on a crazy day!

Posted by Justyna on May 23, 2013 at 8:09am 0 Comments

By the time I made it to work the morning after my sleepless night, having done my midnight to 8am overnight basal fasting test, I was already exhausted and groggy. It didn't help to find a stack of papers on my desk and several emails on my work computer pointing to some urgent matters that needed my immediate attention - and what's worse: immediate action!

Posted by Scott on May 23, 2013 at 7:20am 0 Comments

Boy Scouts

As I posted yesterday I did not play baseball as a kid. What I was involved in was Boy Scouts. I joined in 1969 and in February 1971, I earned the rank of Eagle. In October 1974 I was blessed with being named a vigil member of the Order of Arrow. Both honors mean a great deal to me.

I mention this because today May 23, 2013 the Boy Scouts are due to vote on a universal proposition to allow gay youths into…
