Mama's on Fire: Wait- What Am I?

http://mamasonfire.blogspot.com/2012/03/wait-what-am-i.html

Thursday, March 8, 2012. Wait- What Am I? Below are some thoughts I had after my husband referred to me as 'prudish'. I realized that as a progressive, he sees me as prudish, while a conservative would see me (on the surface) as.well, just a conservative. I've decided that I'd vastly prefer a different label. How about Traditional Progressive? No that doesn't work. Stuffy Progressive? I'm getting nowhere. You decide. What am I? I am embarrassed by most Victoria's Secret ads, and feel uncomfortable when I...

Mama's on Fire: The Devil in the Screen

http://mamasonfire.blogspot.com/2012/04/devil-in-screen.html

Friday, April 13, 2012. The Devil in the Screen. Have you seen him? He's there. I keep trying to get a glimpse of him, but I never seem to catch him. Well, not until his damage is done, that is. I'm not really serious. I mean, I don't really think that the devil resides within my television. I do, however, notice a marked difference in my kids after they've had any amount of screen- type entertainment. They do become whiny, argumentative, unimaginative, and.well.kind of mean! Hugs and love,.

Mama's on Fire

http://mamasonfire.blogspot.com/2013/11/i-left-my-baby-with-you.html

Friday, November 1, 2013. I left my baby with you. My tiny, fragile, dependent baby was left in your care. It wasn't really care, was it? I sensed them from the beginning. Sensed something wasn't right. But there was no concrete example to which I could point. For the source of my unease. Perhaps it was what you were doing to her in the shadows. Or the other infants left alone, in playpens, swings, and seats. Or the constant illness. Or the constant dirty diapers. We did speak with you about that).

Mama's on Fire: June 2014

http://mamasonfire.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

Tuesday, June 24, 2014. It is dusk, but the darkest kind. There is rich grass backed by the spires of evergreens, framed in precisely outlined clouds. The daylight whispers goodbye in a feathered sky. The air is sweet and still.sweet country air. Chasing the prize of a firefly. Or two. But what a treasure. A night, still and sweet. Spiced by the sound of children laughing. When they catch their prize. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Simple template. Template images by chuwy.

Sunday, March 18, 2012. Week's End- March 17, 2012. This weekend was my scheduled time to do our school progress check- in. I have this scheduled three times a year, and have. Wait, before I go further, I must post a disclaimer. Mama's dependent upon organization. I have charts for my charts, forms for my forms, and a pie graph depicting what percent of my organization is in forms, charts, graphs, or 'other'. This post is a reflection of that. *. Wishing everyone an organized homeschool,. Wait- What Am I?

Mama's on Fire: July 2012

http://mamasonfire.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html

Tuesday, July 10, 2012. I feel so poor tonight. Dads are not supposed to do this. Dads are supposed to be the rock when we need to crumble, the sense when we are senseless. They are supposed to tell us when we are wrong, not the other way around. Dads are supposed to cheer at our swim meets, move us out of college, walk us down the aisle. It is dark tonight. It is dark in my heart, and dark in my soul. He is gone- or, perhaps, he was never there. Was he? They do, they do. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Mama's on Fire: January 2012

http://mamasonfire.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html

Monday, January 2, 2012. In years past, I have conciously decided what I would like to bring in the new year. There was no concious decision this year, rather the year whispered to me, 'It is time'. It is time to do some thigns that seem a bit trite in the grand scheme of things, but I now see as critical. It is time to return to running like I used to. Also, I admit, to lifting weights.
