Inspiration from a lime green ribbon!

Today I am just plain inspired by the power of a listserv (and now blog) I have belonged to for a while now-it has helped me so much to hear other womens' stories about their trials and tribulations with endometriosis, a miserable condition that does not get nearly enough attention. This is evidenced by the fact that this dialogue box just showed the word as unrecognizable in its dictionary!

So, this isn't the usual lovely image that I find inspiration from - my muse for a moment - but it is a major force in my life that has for now, led to the inspiration of the collective power of groups!

Note the interesting orange-background graphic by Marla Campbell...and the image with the hot water bottle that is me so much of the time these days...sigh! One of these days I need to put my applied social research skills to good use towards addressing the ways in which women treat and manage their endometriosis...tenure first!
