Baby, Let Me Know. You’ll Let Me Know….

Girl hol-la!
If I did this right, you’re listening to Aaliyah’s We Need a Resolution (or will be, once you click Play). Because I’ve been singing it to myself all morning in preparation for this post.

I need some resolutions.
How about these?

Under promise; over deliver.

At work. At home. With friends. With colleagues. With bosses. I am the […]

I can always count on my pal L. to send me links and action alerts to get me even more riled up than I already am. Here’s one that directly relates to my Blog Action Day post regarding phtalates and plastics and their nasty effects on fertility (among other things).
Among the results […]

how long do cats live - um, I dunno. My husband and his allergies would probably say too long.

Poke A Butt Game

Laura at Tales of CFS recently listed the ten most interesting ways that folks found her site. So, of course I got curious and went and had a look at the stats for Fertility Notes.

Happy Boxing Day

Ahh, Boxing Day!
I think I like the day after Christmas even better than the actual holiday. What does one do on Boxing Day? Nothing! Sure, you can lounge around and play with your presents, eat leftovers, head to the pub for a midday beer, but the whole point of the day is to take the […]

The Resurge of Nature

In a way winter is the real spring, the time when the inner thing happens, the resurge of nature.

Beds, Backs, Chi, and Oh Yes, Fertility
