It’s been a while since I posted an entry for “friday fotos.” It’s appropriate that I ran across this beautiful picture of the culmination of my husband’s recent work with Opera-matic, a small non profit street opera company he’s been developing. You’ll be glad to know that you can see more pics from the event […]

Reblogged from mr metanarrative: In the fall of 2010 I stumbled upon a story that has since become an obsession. I have wandered so deeply into this story that I feel compelled to write my way out of it - or through it. One thing is for sure, there's no way I can get around […]

Mother’s Day

REPOST: This essay was originally posted May, 2010. Since that time, I’ve found my perceptions of Mother’s Day have shaped to reflect the true spirit of the day. I read this one myself from time to time to remind me of the passion and the courage that originally fueled the real version of “Mother’s Day.”  […]

“and now I will show you the most excellent way…” I meant to tell you all this earlier. When I was in the shower today I figured it all out. I mean I really got it all completely figured out, the world, the troubles, everything. I know the answer. I started to write it down […]

Everything is transition these days. We’re in a new house this week and I am, once again, surrounded by boxes. It makes me crazy, being surrounded by boxes. I’ve done this moving houses thing now more times than I’d like to remember and there are pieces of it at the start of the process that […]

Reality is a strange animal. I’m amazed at how often we choose to cage it up and put it in the closet. It’s only when we start to hear it scratching from the other side of the door that we begin to pay attention to it. I take only a little bit of comfort in […]

I harbor a secret addiction to shows like “Hoarders.” I admit, I watch these shows to help me feel better about my own housekeeping, my own neuroses, my own particular brand of weird. It’s not a pretty admission but it’s true. This weekend I caught part of an NPR show about the life of Anne Sexton, […]

My data backup keeps failing. I noticed the backup had stopped a couple of weeks ago but you know, I was busy. Last week my daughter had the same problem with her computer backup and she brought it to the attention of our household IT guy (read: my husband.) He was on it fast, feeling […]

Reblogged from Nearly Orthodox: "Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe..." Hebrews 12:28 I don't often have nightmares but when I do they usually revolve around some insecurity or another and for the most part they involve my […]
