BrachiatingBaby: The word you are looking for is "Congratulations!"
http://brachiatingbaby.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-word-you-are-looking-for-is.html
Friday, September 7, 2012. The word you are looking for is "Congratulations! It hasn't left much time for blogging. It's not that the last year hasn't had some major blogworthy developments (bumps in the road and the like), but they have come along and I've been doing overall very well with them. I just haven't had the motivation, for a lot of reasons, to write about it all. Or, rather, I've had a lot of motivation not to. Part 1: The Scoop. The looks I've gotten after telling various people this have va...

June 15, 2010} Twitter. Am I the only one who thinks Twitter is simply an abomination? I have a Twitter account, and there are a very few people I tried to follow on it, but I just can’t get into it. I cannot be the only one to realize that Twitter is the best (and worst) example of Western narcissism in the modern world. Facebook status updates aren’t enough; Myspace bulletins aren’t even close; e-mail’s ubiquity is utterly taken for granted… society simply. We are just that important! I love twitter...

BrachiatingBaby: Learning to swim
http://brachiatingbaby.blogspot.com/2011/08/learning-to-swim.html
Saturday, August 27, 2011. From a cloudless blue sky. Into the blue black sea. Finally treading, then swimming. To a refuge; a raft. Still tossed in the swells. Soaked in the spray,. Every rise and fall. A twist in the gut. That now is my home. The crash of the waves. Now sing me to sleep. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Jes and Elliot ( 1) - you found us! The end of a long road. I did something yesterday. Spend more, save more? Live more, Document less. Why yes, it has been a while!

BrachiatingBaby: May 2011
http://brachiatingbaby.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 5, 2011. On our way to school yesterday, I gave Elliot a book to look at in the car. He sat in the back seat pointing to pictures and naming them, then, looked thoughtfully at the book. B - B - B - Book." he said. Then "B - B - B - Bee! This is the first time he's actually figured out a letter phonetically, so I was pretty excited. "Yes! I said. "Book starts with 'b'. B - O - O - K. Book.". He looked at me skeptically. "No. That's not enough 'o's." he said, very seriously. He read the forwa...

BrachiatingBaby: August 2011
http://brachiatingbaby.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 30, 2011. The end of a long road. Or maybe the beginning. I burned a little midnight oir (or 4am oil) last night and finally finished writing the pattern for Taj Mahal. I'd finished the final knit a few weeks ago, and had been trying to motivate myself to take those last steps to finish off this project. what did it? The fact that I really, really need to clean the house. So naturally I got right to work on pattern writing ;). Saturday, August 27, 2011. From a cloudless blue sky. He'd rem...

BrachiatingBaby: October 2011
http://brachiatingbaby.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 13, 2011. Right about now, four years ago, I was sitting in the basement making yarn when my water broke. Karl was upstairs getting ready for a marathon grading session - papers all over the dining room table, gradebook open, determination on his face. Never had he been presented with a better alibi for procrastination. We thought for sure we'd meet our baby that day, but stubborn and slow (like um, one of his parents), he waited till after midnight to appear. Happy early birthday, boo.

BrachiatingBaby: March 2011
http://brachiatingbaby.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 31, 2011. Everything was original, once. Elliot and I, as other people. Tangential to the post, or maybe total non-sequitor. So often it is said that there is nothing new under the sun. The thing is, it hasn't always been said, only quite frequently since it was first said. So once, it was new, under the sun. Or perhaps the moon, if they first said it at night. Anyway, the point? I was reading this. Maybe I need to let myself steal more. If there was anything I learned from Karl's pas...

What Do I Have to Say?: February 2014
http://murphymom.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
What Do I Have to Say? Friday, February 21, 2014. Teri, like us all was beautifully flawed. She was flawed in that cancer wreaked havoc on her body but not her beautiful spirit and soul. Flawed in that she had to leave much sooner that she would have chosen and beautiful in the way she chose to live her life even before her initial diagnosis of cancer. Godspeed Teri.

What Do I Have to Say?: March 2013
http://murphymom.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
What Do I Have to Say? Sunday, March 24, 2013. Concert Choir received straight one ratings at state contest. I'm so proud of the one in sight reading! Chamber Choir also received a one rating. I picked a very difficult piece Soneto de la Noche and have worried since January about the score. My kids never cease to amaze me though. They rise to the occasion every time!

What Do I Have to Say?: Summer 2014
http://murphymom.blogspot.com/2014/07/summer-2014.html
What Do I Have to Say? Friday, July 18, 2014. To say this summer has been interesting would. I seem to have anxiety. Anxiety that has gotten to the point of making me worry about stupid things. My current worry is Aidan getting a job. Why worry about that? It's not like he's moving out and needs money. I've really done very little this summer except knit, watch netflix and read. And this makes me anxious, like I should be DOING SOMETHING. I just don't know what that something is. Learn uke songs (10).
