It’s not always rainbows and butterflies…
Happy Friday Eve, my loves. Next week is my 6 year anniversary. A lot of you know that I started to get sick with lupus just a mere few weeks after we returned from our honeymoon, so it sometimes feels like we never really got to have that newlywed “honeymoon phase.” I wrote a post in March 2013 about how … Continue reading
I get this writer’s block, it comes as quite a shock…
Happy Hump Day, bitches! I find I always get writer’s block or have nothing good to say when I get a gaggle of new followers. It’s frustrating as all hell, and makes me just want to write a bunch of garbage for the sake of writing a post. Here’s some man candy in the form of Jax Teller. You’re welcome. … Continue reading
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth…
Happy Monday, my loves! I had a wonderful weekend, nothing crazy, but the kind that left me feeling… happy! Valentine’s Day isn’t a big deal for Steve and me, but I wanted to do a little something on this hearts and flowers day. I cooked. SMD posted a recipe of braised ribs from the Pioneer Woman last week, and I … Continue reading
It’s the heart that really matters in the end…
Well hello there! I’m MarlaJan and I blog over at a little space that I like to call Luck Fupus. Take a second and think about it. I’m here to bring you some knowledge about congenital heart defects. Why, when I have lupus, would I be writing about congenital heart defects? I was also born with a congenital heart defect called tetralogy … Continue reading
It’s Friday, I’m in love…
Happy Valentine’s Day, bitches! It’s supposedly the most romantic day of the year, when your love (or your love-to-be) spends an exorbitant amount of money on chocolates, jewelry and dinners with pre-fixe menus and jacked up prices. I’ve never been a fan of this day, even now that I’m married. Our wedding anniversary is only 2 weeks away, so we … Continue reading
I wanna get to know you better…
Hello peeps! Welcome to this little part of the interwebs I call Luck Fupus! I’m Marla (the MJ just ain’t sticking, no matter how hard I’ve tried), the mastermind of this spot. I am partaking in a rad giveaway with the oh so lovely Helene and other fabulous girls, so I imagine I have a bunch of new visitors to … Continue reading
Scars are souvenirs you never lose…
The second half of last week and the weekend kept me busy, so by Monday morning, I was spent. It all finally caught up to me, and I had to use Monday and Tuesday to decompress and recover. For as long as I can remember, my mom always told me I was president of The Zipper Club. The Zipper Club … Continue reading
It’s Brittany, bitch…
Happy Hump Day, my lovelies. I was thrilled to see how many of you participated in the January Spending Freeze and linked up your results! Look at all the monies we all saved! Be sure to keep an eye out for info on our next spending freeze, which will be in April. This week finds me with doctors appointments and … Continue reading
If I was a rich girl…
Ahhhh, it’s over. This spending freeze was a toughie. January is one of my favorite months to go shopping for myself. OK, who am I kidding, ALL THE MONTHS are my favorite to go shopping for myself, but I particularly love the January sales. It was so hard to be good. The wonky weather definitely helped me from not leaving … Continue reading
Take this pink ribbon off my eyes…
TGIF! This week went pretty fast, and I’m happy the weekend is here. In terms of doctors/tests, I only had one appointment this week. Next week I have a doctor appointment/test/chemo every single day… except Friday! I’m gonna be one miserable mofo by the time next Friday rolls around. Thursday is my first infusion at McDicky’s office. I’ve always gotten … Continue reading
