Do what you can, Caroline.

January 14, 2015 By Caroline Peterson

I ran 4.5 miles this past weekend. Real talk: I walked about the last 1.5 of it. And I was pissed. I’ve honestly been battling a nasty respiratory virus for the last 3 weeks. Including an infected tonsil. (Did I mention I had my tonsils taken out as a kid? Don’t ask…) The week before […]

The ‘D’ Word

June 6, 2012 By Caroline Peterson

It happened this past Fall. I was in the middle of a regular appointment with a clinical professional (read: my monthly appointment with a therapist) and she had the nerve to blatantly ask me if I thought I was depressed. Well…  I don’t know…  Why are you asking me?  Aren’t you the professional?  Shouldn’t you […]
