Secret Lives

The new book, The Secret Lives of Wives by Iris Krasnow, is making it’s way around the talk show circuit. Today the author was on The Talk just as my husband walked in from work. Ms. Krasnow was making the statement “today women don’t need a man. We have sperm banks….” My husband took great . . . → Read More: Secret Lives

Two Gods? Really?

Believe it or not, today in the Cape Cod Times I read about two Gods. It seems most everyone, with the exception of the Atheists, believes in one sovereign God that connects with His people in many different ways called religions. Many religions, still one God. The two Gods I read about today are different . . . → Read More: Two Gods? Really?

iTouch-ed Lives

Last evening I was talking (texting) to my dear friend in Pennsylvania about her kids in glee club, playing words with friends with my daughter in Boston and my two friends in NY, talking (texting) to my husband about a problem with his apps, reading a novel, writing yesterday’s blog, emailing back and forth with . . . → Read More: iTouch-ed Lives

Moneyball

Everywhere I go I end up learning something new or gaining a different viewpoint for old topics. Last night my husband and I had a lovely evening out. We went to see Moneyball. Great story. Great actors. I highly recommend it for an entertaining evening, but it was not the enjoyment of the plot and . . . → Read More: Moneyball

The Ideal

North Cairn writes a nature column in the Cape Cod Times Sunday paper each week. She always writes about her treks through marshes and beaches with her dog. I love reading her writing. It’s usually quite a long piece and I can’t believe all the things she finds to write about on a simple morning . . . → Read More: The Ideal

Towers & Teachers

Today I was watching the clip of President Bush reading to second graders as the first plane hit on 9/11. I was reading to kindergarteners at that same moment. The second graders are now 17. My kindergarteners are now 15. Some of those second graders described the look they remember on President Bush’s face when . . . → Read More: Towers & Teachers

The Day After Irene…Still Fearful

Irene came and went and left more than a few twigs on my lawn. It was wonderful to wake up to a normal breezy cape morning. The day was spent in yard cleanup. My husband “vacuumed” the lawn with the tractor, while I picked up all the oversized branches. No sooner had we begun our . . . → Read More: The Day After Irene…Still Fearful

She’s Come n’ Gone

Irene has come n’ gone in Sandwich in Cape Cod. At my house she left a few twigs that we’ll have to pick up tomorrow. There was NO rain and the sun actually made an appearance. We still have no power, but since it’s summer, no worries about heat, and we have a generator to . . . → Read More: She’s Come n’ Gone

Hurricane Afternoon

It’s 11am and Irene showed up in the form of a few strong wind gusts, but still no rain. The power went off about 10:30. I just sitting here in my chair, screen door open, watching and listening to the wind. It’s still strange – I never sat through a “dry” hurricane before. And now, . . . → Read More: Hurricane Afternoon
