So here’s what you may not know about getting your varicose veins stripped: it really, really hurts. I know! News flash! But honestly, I was unprepared for how much it would hurt and how difficult it would be to walk afterward. I am happy to tell you that today I am moving around and even […]
I Also Hate Camping
March 10, 2011 by
Two days ago, Jake and I were driving home from the grocery store when it appeared that my street was underwater.
