Currently – The Last Days of Summer & A New School Year
Once I month I take a moment from my usual decorating, decor and recipe posts, and focus on what's "currently" going on in my life. This month my twin daughters passed a big milestone: Yesterday they started their first day of high school. I can't believe they are in high school now! Last Day at the Swim Club I tried to enjoy the last few days of their summer vacation with my daughters to the fullest. One afternoon I took one of my daughters to the swim club. (My other daughter doesn't enjoy swimming too much.) My daughter and I enjoyed many days there together over the summer. I will Continue reading...
Get Well Care Package from a Good Friend
Here at Mom Home Guide, I've been working not as hard as I normally do. I usually have a slew of projects that I'm working on. Since my breast cancer diagnosis in late June and my lumpectomy in late August, however, I've been focusing on my health. One thing that made me smile during all this was a care package from my good blogging friend, Carrie of Curly Crafty Mom! (Read more about my breast cancer journey.) The package arrived the same day that I got good news from my surgeon -- she told me that in all likelihood my breast cancer will be cured with treatment with low chance of Continue reading...

Decorating with Wall Art — 12 Months of Goals
Once a month, my friend Carrie of Curly Crafty Mom and I both set a monthly goal for ourselves. It's a great way to get things accomplished. It's been rough for me lately.

So, I'm making my goal this month an easy one. I hope to hang some photo canvases and artwork that have been waiting to be hung in my home. I have quite a few framed art pieces that I have been meaning to put on the walls. Hanging Custom Art Canvases The newest Continue reading...
My Cancer Journey – Breast Lumpectomy
I just had a lumpectomy for the breast cancer that was discovered in my breast in late June. As surgeries go, I suspect it wasn't the worst it could be, but the experience was worse than some of the other surgeries I've had. (Specifically, it was worse than the bunion surgery and wrist surgery I had.) Lots of Pre-Op On the day of my lumpectomy, I arrived at the hospital at 7:30 a.m. There was the usual stuff -- signing forms and showing my insurance and ID cards, etc. Soon I was taken to an upstairs room, asked questions, gave a urine sample (pregnancy test) and changed into a hospital Continue reading...

My Breast Cancer Journey — Mammogram Call Back & Biopsy
I was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. I have a family history, but I never expected to be facing something like this so soon - at 50. It all started with my yearly mammogram. A Mammogram Callback I went for a yearly screening mammogram in June. I opted to pay $50 extra for a 3D mammogram, A 3D mammogram is thought to find more cancers than traditional 2D mammograms do. In past years, all my mammograms have been fine. (I have been getting mamograms since at least 40, I think. It's been a while.) After the mammogram, I picked up lunch to share with my twin teenage Continue reading...
