loafin’ around

In case you haven’t heard, loafers are in this fall.  And that’s especially good news for me, because I already had a pair.  Honestly I can’t remember when I bought them, but it’s been years ago, most likely when they were in once upon a time way back in the past.  IMO, they never really … More loafin’ around

it’s.in.the.bag

I have a rather small journal in which I log writing ideas.  That way, if a thought hits me, I’m prepared to record it.  Well, my bag is currently so large and so full of crapola, that yesterday, I couldn’t locate the mini journal inside it.  I decided I can’t tolerate it anymore.  I absolutely … More it’s.in.the.bag

just.a.phase?

My husband recently said I’m in a “museum phase”.  What he means by that is I’m currently fascinated with art and museums and art heists and paintings stolen by the Nazis in the 1940s and people who buy pictures at flee markets because they like the frame the picture is in, only to have the … More just.a.phase?

where.the.wind

My mother emailed today and told me a movie is being filmed in their Oklahoma town.  It is based on the play, August: Osage County.  I decided to read the play, and have reserved it at the library. Interestingly, I’ve recently thought a book based on my great grandmother’s life would make for an exciting … More where.the.wind

sardonically [safe]

I prepared a blog post earlier this week and ended up accidentally deleting it.  After much time trying to recover it, I realized it is in a realm of cyber space I cannot enter.  At least without ample assistance.  I’ve kept the same title, but revamped what I originally wrote.  It wasn’t that great anyway.  … More sardonically [safe]

the weather

I titled my blog, “Once Upon a Sunny Day”.  There’s a reason for that, and honestly it doesn’t have that much to do with weather.  It’s another story.  For another day.  Maybe.  But today, I want to write about the weather.  The weather can be a royal pain.  Like this crazy hurricane named Isaac.  Isaac … More the weather

the.church.search

Today our family will visit a church for the first time.  To protect the innocent, I will not name names.  We’re without a church home and would like to quickly find a place that will be ours. Our family has more than a fair share of ministry baggage, as in we’ve been on the inside … More the.church.search

camping w/dogs

If you pay attention, you can overhear a lot.  For instance, I’m listening right now while a woman tells another woman how her cat recently had to be put down.  I’m sitting in my van, in the Lexington Music Academy parking lot.  The woman who didn’t just lose her cat invited the pet mourner to … More camping w/dogs

sensory.overload

The past few weeks have left me fairly exhausted, if not in a physical way, at least in a sensorial.  Can a person be sensorially exhausted?  If so, I am. I have felt: overwhelmed disappointed excited contemplative worn out happy confused relaxed In the past few weeks: I have seen and met people from all … More sensory.overload
