December 19th, 2012 I have spent much of the last five days processing, just like everyone else in our country – trying to find ways to help, trying to find solutions, feeling guilty I have so much in comparison, imagining the unimaginable, trying to explain the unexplainable, etc. Today I found myself at loose ends in trying to . . . → Read More: In Such Times
December 18th, 2012 A friend posted the following on Facebook yesterday afternoon……
It really made me stop and think and it drove a few points home that have crossed my mind over the past few days. There's a lot being discussed and written about gun control as a result of the Connecticut tragedy. It's the same . . . → Read More: Profound….
December 17th, 2012 This morning was a hard morning in front of the TV. If there was ever a morning since I’ve been retired that I wanted to dress up and go to work, it’s today. I want to be there with my colleagues for the early morning meeting taking place in every school today before the students . . . → Read More: Helpless
December 16th, 2012 Today my husband left to go back to NY early due to impending bad weather. I had a long list of things to keep me busy until we would watch the Pats game together tonight by texting. I went to the store. Did the usual cleaning and laundry, and then just didn’t want to do . . . → Read More: Only So Much Time
December 15th, 2012 Waking up to the morning news, for me, and I’m sure for you, began a day of processing unthinkable tragedy. I read a lot of Facebook posts, in addition to what the news stations offered. The one that held a beautiful message was by Jennifer Boykin, author of a blog I follow, Life After Tampons. . . . → Read More: And Now, What?
December 12th, 2012 12/12/12. The day, once again, the world was supposed to end. How could I have missed this?
It could’ve ended as I was driving up 6A to bible study this morning. But it didn’t.
It could’ve ended when my prayer ladies and I were giving praise for the things God has given us. . . . → Read More: Dec 12, 2012
December 10th, 2012 It’s been seven weeks now integrating Bikram yoga with Koko fit club. The first four weeks the two just did not get along and there were many nasty days in the sandbox. These last three weeks have been quite uneventful. They are playing nice together. I do think it’s going to be a good marriage. . . . → Read More: It’s A Good Marriage
December 9th, 2012 This morning I was listening to Ryan Seacrest’s Top Forty on the radio as I was driving. I like the interviews with the artists interspersed between the songs on the countdown. I was negotiating my parking spot at The Christmas Tree Shop and caught the last sentence of someone’s interview. I didn’t get the name . . . → Read More: Nobody But Me
December 8th, 2012 Tonight I’m reading “Charming Lily” by Fern Michaels. It’s not very well-written, but I am enjoying the storyline. One character, in the midst of his conflict, is very spiritually oriented and uses the phrase “Throw it out to the universe and see what comes back to you.” The two times so far, when his back . . . → Read More: Throw It Out To The Universe
December 7th, 2012 I just read a great column in today's Cape Cod Times entitled "No More Christmas Whittling" by Saralee Perel, author of "Cracked Nuts & Sentimental Journeys: Stories From A Life Out of Balance. "A life out of balance". Now isn't that a mind full. How many things happen to all of us that knock our . . . → Read More: Whittling
