Just Ridiculous
Posted in Life, Reflection on December 15, 2010
The most ridiculous things happen to me. I know, I know, they happen to you too. They happen to all of us. But seriously…when I tell people the things that happen to me, they stare blankly. Because they’re ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous. I had a car accident about a week and a half ago, on 12/2. […]

Outside my window…the sky is spitting snowflakes, and it’s just covering the sidewalks and roadways…i keep waiting to hear we’ll get measurable snowfall…it will come.

I am wearing…an amethyst, hooded, big-buttoned sweater, a slightly lighter purple, long-sleeved t-shirt, […]
Too much
Posted in Uncategorized on December 5, 2010
I am grateful. For a refrigerator with too much food. For a house that’s too big. Couches that are too comfortable. Dogs that are too excited to see us. Kids that are too creative. Family that’s too close. Too many dogs. Too many pies. Too many kids. Too many leftovers. Too many pillows and […]

Something New

So how do people actually respond when they go through life-change like divorce?? Well, from what I’ve watched in my limited experience with people who have divorced, some people do something that’s just about them: get in great shape. Diet. Become vegetarian. Some change their lives completely. New job, new city, new house, new car. Some […]

FOR TODAY, November 16th, 2010 Outside my window…New York can’t decide what season to be. I am thinking…about how sometimes…I’d like a vacation all by myself to someplace absolutely beautiful. I am thankful for…the acceptance and love of amazing people. From the learning rooms…Paul’s missionary trips, the skeleton, multiplication and division facts, order […]

Today I stood under an apple tree, blinded by the sunshine at my great-Aunt Jean’s committal service. Last Friday, while driving to visit her son, Mark, for his daughter’s birthday, Jean’s car swerved off the highway and into a tree, killing her instantly. She was 58. Two hours later, I drove past the line of […]

Outside my window…gloomy and grey…but a little bit warmer than yesterday? (I think we’re supposed to hit 48) I am thinking…about how much shorter my to-do lists have been lately. I am thankful for… the generosity, grace, and faithfulness of my family. I am wearing…an orange, v-neck sweater and skinnyish jeans. I am remembering… how simple things […]
