Sometimes the irony just makes me roll with laughter…
Peace. Be still.
I spent yesterday listening to my exit letter cd (hurry up and get your copy, there are only about 1800 left in the shed!)… it’s darn fine. I write good stuff. I should get back to work on that front.
Oh yeah, Happy Girl Scout [...]

I just spent about an hour re-reading old posts from a long forgotten blog. I’d gone looking for some long-lost poem I’d written for jme… I wanted to find it and re-gift it to him for Valentines Day.
Reading the stories of my life over the past 5 years was rather cathartic. Loads of drama. A [...]

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 [...]

In an effort to keep my mind from wandering to the current stress of life, I’m crocheting an afgan.
I’ve found that the movement it kind of like saying a rosary - the methodical motion calms my nerves and centers me. I need a lot of that these days.
Since I figured that I make enough weird [...]

Oh sweet lungs don’t fail me now
Your burning has turned into fear
It drills me in my every step, I’m moving quick
But you’re always on my heels
Just one more breath, I beg you please
Just one more step, my knees are weak
My heart is sturdy but it needs you to survive
My heart is sturdy but it needs [...]

I haven’t written in a while. I got a little scared off and a lot pissed off.
See, it seems that my blog was referenced in court a few months ago by someone who’s got an ax to grind with me. Seems’ that I’m too lax of an educator… all because of one post about the [...]
Stupid Cats!

One of them knocked my camera off the computer hutch the other day. It is broken. For real. I can’t even turn it on because the little switch-thingie is totally broken. Darned cat was probably hunting the frog (who’s tank is on top of the hutch)… and here I was thinking I’d put the camera [...]

We spent two weeks with family this summer… it was great! It was a whirlwind tour of Washington D.C. , Busch Gardens, Jamestown & Williamsburg. There is so much I could say, but I’ll just let our pictures speak for themselves…

1. What did you do 10 years ago?
In July of 1998 I was in Birobidzhan, Far East Russia as a missionary. While there I [...]
