Ending MS would be pretty freaking awesome!

Personal


I’m running this Sunday morning. Far. 13.1 miles – Philadelphia’s half marathon. And I’m doing it to raise money for the research, prevention, treatment, and cure of Multiple Sclerosis.

Please help me in stopping MS. It means so much. I appreciate all of the support I’ve already received and have raised about $2000 in the last few months. Every little bit helps. $5 even (yes, one less Starbucks coffee, I know).

This disease has no known cure and affects about 2 million people worldwide. This horrible disease that can cause blindness, paralysis, and can interfere with just about any other function.

Thank you so, so much.

With love,
Lindsay

Lindsay Goes to Europe
I wanted to put some more stamps in my passport before wedding season showed up in full force. I guess I put the right messages out to the universe because I had a phone call Thursday morning with a friend in Europe and everything aligned. I booked a flight and I’ll be leaving tonight for Paris, Frankfurt, Lyon, and Zurich. (Or thereabouts.)I’m thrilled and panicked. I’m a total planner and this last minute madness is making my head spin. I don’t know the language, the sights, or the customs. I didn’t even have the time to check the weather over there til yesterday (freaking freezing, by the way!). My plan is to have a croissant in Par ...

Meet the new COO of LDP, Asher
He is small and sweet and social and so, so happy and I’m truly enamored in a way that I’ve never been before and didn’t quite expect.  I had Asher 6 months ago today after 9 months of heavy prepartum depression and a tiring labor.  Two weeks early, 17 hours of contractions, and an emergency c-section later (goodbye, birth plan!), I had a wiggly, tiny, bird-like baby weighing in at 6lbs 2oz. For a while we called him Mr. Magoo because he was so wrinkly and weak. And he rocked a sweet mullet! Eventually he filled out with plump cheeks, a melon for a noggin, and a dusting of hair.  Possibly because I kept expectations qui ...
