I’m learning a lot of medical vocab words in this adventure! Today’s word is “spiculated” which means a lump of tissue with spikes or points… thus = starfish.
Today’s MRI shows that the starfish is 2.5 x 1.9 x 2.3 cm… this is not a big starfish. Why do I feel like humming a tune from “Much ado about nothing”? But of course it isn’t nothing.
The other word I learned recently was “nulliparous” which just means a woman who has never given birth to a children. I resent this word. Here’s a quote from Healthline website: “In observing health conditions in nuns over hundreds of years, researchers have found that nulliparous women also have a greater risk of breast cancer.” Read more of this article.
So here I am, a nulliparous woman with a spiculated starfish (is that redundant?). Anyone for a game of scrabble?
Hello Friend and WELCOME! I’m a progressive Neo-Mennonite seminary student. I wrestle in the style of Jacob, question in the style of the woman at the well (whose name we are not told) and I’m always looking around for Jesus.
As a textile artist, I weave on a rigid heddle loom in the Saori tradition – which is like jazz for yarn – completely improvisational. I love to sew, make hats, jewelry, dye yarn, and paint gloves, shoes, and bags in my colors. My goal is a complete handmade wardrobe unique to me, with a hint of the gorgeous 1920’s.
My Austrian and I lived in a tiny house from 2014 – 2018 and currently live a handmade life in a small house. It is our dream to buy land and build a beautiful community for tiny house people. I’ve written two books on living simply, the first is “Kitchen Simplicity” and the second is “The Simplicity Mindset”.
Welcome to the yarn basket and thanks for being here, I appreciate it!
