Remember my amazing grandmother, who survived breast cancer and is now 5 years free of cancer?
You should all be jealous that she isn't your Gramma. Anyway, it's time for a shameless plug for the yearly Komen Race for the Cure. This year Gramma isn't able to walk, so she is asking for people to sponsor her not to walk. She recently reached her goal of $1000, but that doesn't mean she can't earn more! Will you please consider supporting my grandmother and, more importantly, breast cancer research?
And while you're at it, ladies, don't forget to do your self breast exam! Breast cancer can often be caught with just a self exam as my grandmother's was. You are looking for a lump about the size of a frozen pea (sorry to be a little gross, but this is important!!) So get to know your tatas, and think about donating to a great cause!





I'm a 27 year old, newly married, newly living in Washington, librarian trying to find a job in a library. Meanwhile I'm working as a office assistant while I figure out how to live my new life as a wife.
Geoff, my wonderful, caring husband works with computers and, in his free time, plays with video games, lounges on the couch and cooks with sourdough.
Clarabelle and Hermione are our babies! Hermione, who came to Megg as a kitten, loves playing with fur mice and bottle caps. Clarabelle's hobbies include sleeping, lying in the sun and playing with straws. 
Geoff and Megg met through a mutual friend and spent 4 years dating long distance. They were finally able to live in the same zipcode after what seemed like forever when they got married on January 2, 2010! Soon after they bought a house and have been enjoying the Pacific Northwest together while being both newlyweds and new homeowners!
