Things that Make me go Ouch
When it Pours it Thunders!
In my last whine, I mentioned that I got really mad at hubby. If I hadn’t have had a rough time with my teen earlier that day, I probably could have handled the situation better, but I didn’t. Though to my credit, I didn’t engage in my ritualistic hip reaction of anger. Instead, I internalized…
Next Time I’ll Have to Think Twice Before I Say…
family stuff is going pretty smoothly so I don’t have much to whine about!:) Ha! Today was a really rough day. Just when I thought I was enjoying my teen (with minor exceptions to normal moodiness,) he pushed me back over the edge! Unfortunately my moms says he’s a lot like me at his age.…
WIP Catastrophy!?! and a needed Prayer!
It’s 4 am in the morning, that’s right 4 am, and I would have been to bed hours ago after a pretty good writing session, but I’ve been searching for an illusive version to my WIP. I keep multiply copies on my computer, SAVING AS so I can have old versions of my WIP. I…
Coming Up for Air!
Right now I’m over committed and I seem to be taking on new projects every moment. Like my willingness to be write some news articles for my kids’ school website and newly developed newsletter that I’m NOT in charge of, but I’m on the committee. Also on the agenda for this week is teaching writing…
Reevaluation
There’s a lot of things I need to reevaluate in my life. I sort of skipped the New Year’s Resolution/goal setting thing, and it’s time I take a real hard look at some of the areas in my life which have gotten out of balanced. Some of it is the same old, same old…too much…
Writing has become a CHORE!
I know this is Sunday, and I should be posting on faith, but I’m there’s a lot of stuff going on in my brain related to faith and doctrine and such and it’s all because of this. So, until I sort it all out, here’s another taste of what I’m dealing with… I’m 40 pages…
If You Wait, They Will Come
I’m talking about emails. I’ve literally spent hours at the computer answering one email after another, searching on blogs, then back to emails! The insanity has to stop! I waste too much time waiting for that email to come in. The one I just have to answer right away. I did it again this morning,…
Opposite World
Jesus said we live in an opposite world. Just one glance at Luke 6 verses 20-38 proves it. Imagine reading these words for the very first time… 20…”Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. 21 “Blessed are you who hunger now, for you shall be satisfied. Blessed are you…
Are You on that Computer, Again?
How many times have you heard that one? From your spouse, or (dare I confess) children? I mean, it’s not like I’m watching Soap Operas, or Oprah, or Dr. Phil all day (did the rounds for a season when my my boys were little) or talking on the phone all day long. I rarely talk…
Assessing the Damage
Our power came back on Tuesday around 5 pm, so we really didn’t suffer much especially thanks to our friend’s generator, though heating up leftovers in the crockpot was an experience. Here’s a recap…Sunday Afternoon The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe was canceled because power went out at the theatre. Sunday, middle of the…
