sacrifice.
Posted by malindar in All About Mindy, God, Life, Reflection, Uncategorized on March 2, 2018
in my mind, i am made up of a whole bunch of parts of a person i really want to be. i’m a mom. a writer. a helper. a thinker. a doer. in reality…i struggle with the fact that maybe i’m not really any of those things. i am a mom who finds herself with […]

so if you’ve read…well, basically more than one of my posts ever, you’ll know that i post about anything. everything, really. there is no rhyme or reason here. and my interests are random and eclectic. overall, i’m good with that, and…well, this is my blog so…if you’re not, that’s ok. i’ve been doing a lot […]
becoming adult

25 years ago, i graduated from high school. i’m reminded of this number repeatedly…by the fact that i know my class is having a reunion in July…by the fact that Joe graduated 5 years after me, and he celebrates his 20th in July as well…but most notably by the fact that my daughter, who was […]
called.
today, my daughter called me from the International Wesleyan Youth Convention in Indianapolis in tears. i could literally hear the smile on her face as she sniffed and sobbed. i was so confused. i asked if she was ok. she said, “i’m really ok, Momma.” and she went on to explain that during a message […]
what a year.

this year, i almost lost my marriage. then i lived a miracle. i watched my child gain independence. and i watched her choose to lose it for a time. i lost 7 pounds. gained back 9. i heard my babies love each other. i watched them fight. we had plenty for a while. and then we had […]
long hair

several problems accompany growing your hair out when you get old. i’m sure you don’t really care, but…yeah, i don’t care that you don’t care anymore. (that’s an upside to getting old.) in January, i stopped cutting my hair. i wasn’t growing it out then. i just wasn’t cutting it. this was a tactic meant […]

i have spent the past three years doing constant research. from the time Joe and i got married, i felt something change in my body. i was 39. when i started gaining weight that i couldn’t explain (because nothing changed–not my nutrition, not my workouts, not my stress level), people kept saying to me, “you’re just […]
to process pain.

i’m sitting here on my couch at 3:00 in the afternoon, fully aware of what i’m supposed to be doing. fully intentional about not doing it. you know, this seems like the only time i actually post: when i’m avoiding something i know i need to get done. i guess, however, after looking back over all […]
mother’s day.
Posted by malindar in All About Mindy, Family Life, Joe, Kids, Life, Reflection on May 11, 2015
i got the most amazing mother’s day gifts yesterday. and the ones that were my favorites didn’t cost a dime. not a cent, actually. and i have never received more amazing gifts. from anyone. one will be hard-pressed to give me anything more priceless from this point forward. oh, sure, they gave me a gluten-free savory baker […]
