… for four reasons! One, I got a letter from Google regarding a class action lawsuit regarding their search feature. They included me because my work may have been searched in an improper manner. Ha! I highly doubt it, since the book isn’t out yet. Two, the OCW newsletter arrived today. It highlights a workshop […]
From One Extreme to the Other
Can I adopt that as the theme of my life? It could reference my emotions, or the state of cleanliness of the house, or any number of things, but for this blog … I’m talking Internet. Two weekends ago, I drove the kids to Athena to visit my brother, SIL, and their family. You may […]

I’m Going to ACFW!
I got a call yesterday that I am one of the blessed recipients of the ACFW Conference Scholarships!! It really was great news to balance out some of the stress of yesterday. At the same time, I know quite a lot of people applied and didn’t get one. I’m sad for them. This is how […]
You Find Time for the Things You Care About
Not so. At least, not while you’re in crisis. I care about you readers. I care about sharing what God is doing in my heart. I care about having some type of recording of the death of my marriage. I care about sharing my day with you. But when I’m constantly on the edge of […]
A Very Merry Un-anniversary …
To me … yes, me! A very merry un-anniversary to whom? Yes, me! Oh, I’ve had that remade song from Alice in Wonderland running through my head all day! Has it been a hard March 23? If I stopped to think about it, I’m sure it would be. The key is to stay very, very […]
Red Tape?
Do you see a pattern yet? My about-once-a-week posts? I guess the only time I can find to update this wonderful thing called my blog is when the kiddos are with their daddy. Or maybe it’s the only time I allow myself to relax at some level. There is SO much to do. I’ve been […]
A Fantastic Friday the 13th
Let’s just preface this by saying I give no credence to luck whatsoever. (Though I’m not sure how to explain when the cards in a game of chance completely favor a certain player.) But there are people out there who have a problem with Friday falling on the 13th of the month. I’m posting about […]
Poison to My Bones
When one wages a war, there are times when retreat is needed. Gladly, the kind of retreat I’m referring to was a church women’s retreat last weekend. But, since I am warring with the enemy who’s seeking to destroy my family right now, it was needed. A few people were surprised I went, and I […]
