To ‘discuss’ Santa… fa la la la la la la la!
Just kidding.
Though I am thinking that it’s time for a revised and updated treatise on the jolly old elf. It’s been on my mind, but I’ll save that for later.
It’s getting chilly here in good ol’ Tennessee. The yard is covered in leaves – and [...]

The past few months have been a whirlwind ’round these parts. Due to the digi-cam being killed by my cat from hell, there haven’t been pictures… I did dig out the 35mm camera (a rather nice one, at that) and dust it off. Hopefully I’ll get those pic developed before the kids graduate from college!
This [...]

Yelling.
There has been more then the usual share of it around here this past week. Not what we really wanted for our Christmas… but what are you gonna do when a kid picks a fight and knows just how to get the grownups to react. Personally, I’m a yeller. It’s not [...]

Winter.
Oh how I miss it! I look at blogs like this one and this one and find myself near tears with longing for snow. At no time during the year do I miss the North like in the winter.
While all my friends and neighbors are complaining about needing their coats, I’m bemoaning the [...]

Traditions.
It’s a season of them… we’ve been busy the past week or so decking the halls and dedicating our house and hearts to the holidays.
Jme and I light the advent candles at church on the first Sunday…
Then we had a Chanukah dinner & fun with friends on the first night.
We went to the mall Saturday [...]

Simplify.
That’s what we’re doing around here. And it feels good. It’s very Franciscan of us.
It doesn’t quite look like we’re simplifying – but we’re well into the process. I’m getting rid of things left and right… I’ve even committed to getting rid of any Christmas decorations we do not use this year – and I [...]

Party!
Sunday night was a blast. The 1986 Snow Ball (our church Christmas party).

Magic.
I had something completely different planned for letter M – but I did a lot of thinking yesterday… I went to Montessori to paint shelves and had 3 hours of silence in which to do a lot of mulling over.
This is gonna be longer then usual… so go re-fill your coffee mug and settle in [...]
