Coming This Month...

Having just finished up my quick series on "What's Changed In Our Homeschool This Year!" (I feel so accomplished!), I thought I'd let you know what to expect from this blog in the next month or two!

Here are a couple of plans that I have for the next few weeks:

Believe it or not, I'm working on another series - a longer series titled "Inside the American Medical System," documenting our journey through the web of Western medical specialists with our baby who has special needs. I'll be sharing our story, my conclusions from the experience, and a couple of tips we learned along the way. It should be a lot of fun!

This series is already under construction, and I'm waiting until I'm almost finished to start publishing installments so that I don't have to go back and make constant tiny changes to already-published posts.

In the meantime, I'll be sharing lots of little posts about family and homeschooling - all of the usual crafts, recipes, and family pictures. I often fall behind with these, but I hope to post at least a few.

Another much-needed project that I hope to work on is... a series of posts catching up with my "blog-post idea list." Today I flipped through my blogging notebook and discovered, to my dismay, that I have pages of blog-post ideas that were left behind in favor of newer ideas that popped up. I could just toss them, but the idea of that bugs me - and thus, I am hoping to dive in and do the hard work to finish working through those lists. If you see unusual posts concerning things that I did several years ago, you'll know why.

And finally - if I can manage to get up the courage - I hope to get around to changing my blog name. I've had this in mind for at least a year or two, but I think (hope) that the time has finally come to follow through with this. I love my original name, and it will be a sorrowful parting, but it is unfortunately too narrow a title for this blog now. Although I am still passionate about severe morning sickness (hyperemesis) research and activism, this blog now covers a wide variety of topics, and the title needs to reflect that.

I actually already know the new blog name to which I will be switching, though my web address will stay the same. (The web address using my new blog title is taken - one can duplicate titles, but not web addresses). As a matter of fact, the new name came to me hard on the heels of the idea of switching names. "Hmm. Maybe I should change my blog name. Oh yes, and the new name will be such-and-such." It was that fast. I hope you all like it!

Speaking of which.... any guesses? Leave your guesses in the comments section, and let's see if anyone comes close to predicting the new title!

I may also get around to posting about my adventures in leaving Facebook, but that may have to wait a month or two so that I can properly process the sense of shock I'm still feeling! (But it's a good thing, people.)

And that, dear friends, is what you can expect over the next month or two! I can't wait to share with you!

Have a lovely night!
