How Long O Lord?
Say it with the prophet Habakkuk! Believing as I do that our Lord has a sense of humor among His many attributes, I believe He’ll get my use of the title phrase. Sitting here home-bound by 18.9 inches of snow on March 23rd, I think it’s a fair question, don’t you? Not to mention that…

WHERE’VE YOU BEEN?
I certainly have heard that question lately and I will admit to being MIA these last eight weeks, more specifically the last three weeks. Where have I been? Finishing the first eight weeks of the sixteen-week spring semester, then last week a break before beginning the final eight weeks of this semester today. Between working…

To Everything There Is a Season…
I’ve written about seasons before , how there are many seasons through which we pass on this journey known as life. My trip to Seattle, just ended, was a wonderful season filled with new memories made and great insight into my ErinLee’s day-to-day life, some things I’ve not seen before. I returned to a new…

How much farther, ErinLee?
This is a bit of a change-up, as we noted laughingly earlier this evening. For the nth time in the last four days, I’ve asked that question or another – Are we there yet, ErinLee? Reminiscent of days gone by, only the daughters were asking the questions then 🙂 As I admitted to her, I…

Another TA DA for Me!
It’s nearly 10 a.m. on Saturday morning and I am NOT studying, NOT rushing to beat a deadline, NOT frantically looking for one more resource to beef up a reference list. I AM having a ball here in my special kitchen, just me, some great music – Transiberian Orchestra turned up loud – a couple…

Sparkles Revisited…
I haven’t written about Sparkles in a while, but I got a good-sized dose of them today. In with the beauty was a lesson and that is another Sparkle in and of itself. What is this about anyway? To keep y’all in suspense (ancient literary secret) we’ll talk about the lesson first. Let’s begin with…

Choices !!
Don’t you love choices?? Today, after a really tough week, is turning out beautifully and it’s not yet noon. Today is my Meghan Lee’s 25th birthday. We spoke early, I waited for her call – I’m learning, didn’t want to wake her too early on her birthday. I sang to her, not the traditional melody,…

It’s a Mom Thing…
Not everybody would get this, but if you’re a mom, I’m fairly certain you will. Everybody knows my Meghan Lee was here for eight days. She’s gone, four days already. It’s harder than I’d have believed. I should be used to it; my daughters live on opposite coasts, I’m in the middle and this is…

Furiously Treading…
Last year about this time, a little later actually, I wrote about doing battle with algebra. This summer I had a great time with my counseling class and am finishing an interesting time with philosophy. Note: ” interesting” is LeeAnn-speak for I’m not going to tell you what I really think. Here’s a hint: in…

Reflections on a summer Sunday morning
It’s been quite a week, filled with the usual ups and downs common to women everywhere – highlights and low-lights and life does go on. Because I’m me, let’s start with a big highlight. My favorite Auntie Arlene, mentioned often in this blog, had a birthday, 92, to be specific. Below you see two photos…
