Just a "zebra" trying my best to live life to the fullest with EDS and POTS...and loving the ride.

Live

Written by Katie. Posted in Family, Favorites, Goals, Memorable Experiences

I always said I wanted a tattoo. I just didn’t know what I wanted forever. It was that word, “forever” that got me every time I thought about it. What could I put on my body that would still mean something to me when I was 70? 100?

I liked the way a simple word looked. If you go to my Pinterest page, you will find that over the year, I had pinned a few word tattoos. Faith. Courage. Love.

But again, the “forever” was the thing that got me.

The Reveal

Written by Katie. Posted in Goals, My Creations, Zebras

One of Allie and my projects for the summer was to turn my train wreck of a basement into the Life as a Zebra office.

If you had gone into my basement two weeks ago, you most likely would have gotten swallowed up into one of the many black holes, never to be seen again.
