Expansion – Balla Style! July 5, 2010 at 8:35 pm ( Family. On May 12, 2010 they were discharged from their respective hospitals within one hour of each other. Attila was sprung from Bryn Mawr Rehab, and Emeline went home from the Paoli Hospital maternity ward with her ecstatic parents (son Declan and wife Katie). Was born at 2:40am on Monday, May 10th. Yes, Katie spent most of her first Mother’s Day in labor! Emeline weighed 6lbs 10oz and was 19.25 inches long – such a precious miracle. Love the post mom!

My Virginal LAF Experience. August 23, 2011 at 2:00 pm ( Updates. I just know these things). Mr T acted like he didn’t know why he had an appointment with me. And at first, I wasn’t sure why I did either! Originally I had taken the term “Fitness Assessment” at face value. It didn’t take long to figure out that it is actually a not-so-secret code phrase for “sell everyone personal trainer services! He proceeded to walk me in a complete circle around a group of intimidating torture devices. I suggested...

How’s YOUR International Normalized Ratio? July 17, 2010 at 4:33 pm ( Updates. I hate missing Family Dinner. The only time I miss it is when I am out-of-town on business. Unfortunately, Attila and I both missed it this week. Back in April when Attila was battling viral pneumonia (for his life! On Coumadin should have a level of 1. A person on Coumadin should maintain a level between 2.0 and 3.0. I called them Wednesday morning and could not reach a human being so I left a message for them to call me at w...

Senior Moment Saturday | Kristin Williams Balla

March 20, 2011 at 5:18 pm ( Musings. Last (last) Saturday I woke up to sunshine and the delight of knowing three wonderful friends were coming over for brunch. I had a stress-free morning ahead. I keep my house very neat and it was clean. For friends who don’t look past your heart to ogle and judge your dust. I had exactly two tasks to complete between 8am and the gathering at 11am. One task was to make my impossibly easy Cheese Danish (thank you Nancy Goss! 2 pkg Crescent Rolls (8 rolls per pkg). I pull...

Baby Steps | Kristin Williams Balla
https://kristinballa.wordpress.com/2011/07/06/baby-steps
July 6, 2011 at 1:52 pm ( Updates. I have positive news to report! I took my final paragraph in my previous post to heart (yes, I read my own blog) and …. On the way to work I reminded myself that “this too shall pass” and decided to consciously relish the beauty of the world around me and praise God for it. I soaked in the truth that God is in control. Because? Well, because HE is! And I am good with that. I left work at only 5:30pm! I have the freedom! And God’s people said, “Amen! I'm back. I have...

Losing My Marbles | Kristin Williams Balla
https://kristinballa.wordpress.com/2011/02/14/losing-my-marbles
February 14, 2011 at 12:40 pm ( Musings. I am very blessed that my sister Kathi, House-Cleaner-Extraordinaire, cleans my house for me (for a fee! She is the one person I know will clean it as well as I would clean it myself (when I am able). My Fibromyalgia pain increases exponentially with all of the knee-bending, kneeling, etc. that is the necessary evil of cleaning my house “my way.” So I rarely clean my house! These marbles are part of a small collection that sit in an antique bowl on the coffee tabl...

As Jack Nicholson once said, “You Can’t Handle the Truth! July 4, 2011 at 9:03 pm ( Musings. I was supposed to spend half of this holiday weekend at the Jersey shore soaking up sun and catching up with a dear, dear, old, old (okay, not so. Really – just long-term) friend. Alas, I am not. At the beach and my white (oh-. Not-pretty-white) skin retains the ability to reflect objects at twenty feet. My spirit would be renewed. I am so sorry Steph! But some of you will read this and be shocked and disappointe...
