Time For Mo: Wells Without Water
http://timeformo.blogspot.com/2013/11/wells-without-water_20.html
Wednesday, November 20, 2013. These are wells without water. . . ". This phrase has been running steadily through my mind since I stumbled across it in my scripture study a few days ago. How many wells do I keep digging that offer me no water at all? These are wells that I think we tend to dive in and claw down. . but they do us no good. What good comes to my soul by kicking pricks and wishing things were just "different"? What thirst is quenched by moping or self-reflection to the point of egotism?

Time For Mo: May 2014
http://timeformo.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 14, 2014. No rest for the laundress. I vowed I would not go to bed tonight until the heinous mess of laundry in our basement was sorted, folded, and delivered to its proper owners/drawers. It has been such a couple of weeks, that laundry hasn't had a regular "pace" for some time. My mind drifts forward to homeschooling? Can I do this? I don't do chaos. Can I buck that trend and have an organized homeschool? Can I homeschool my kids without popsicle stick projects and glitter? Gourmet club ...

Time For Mo: Of mindsets and mediocrity
http://timeformo.blogspot.com/2014/01/of-mindsets-and-mediocrity.html
Thursday, January 9, 2014. Of mindsets and mediocrity. So, I've been reading this here book for school:. It is really interesting stuff- and painfully insightful. The author discusses two main types of mindsets: Fixed and Growth. I haven't finished it yet, but here's the gist so far:. The fixed mindset (raising my hand here) is a mindset that wraps worth up in accomplishments, and thinks that true value is only notable if it comes naturally, easily, and without effort or critique. But, it ain't easy.

Time For Mo: February 2012
http://timeformo.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 7, 2012. Pack it up. . pack it in. . Just a shout out to my adolescent music scene. Today I am starting the joyfull process of extricating myself from my mom's house. Them apron strings is long overdue for a trimmin'. Speaking of clothes, I have so many that I would REALLY like to wear again. Since my honesty post I have only lost about 7 pounds. Still, no gaining over the holidays deserves a mini-medal, no? Monday, February 6, 2012. No clue what to write here. This last weekend was Ike...

Time For Mo: October 2011
http://timeformo.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 31, 2011. The trouble with group exercise is. Because unless you look like this:. You really have no wish to look at yourself doing jumping jacks. Sunday, October 30, 2011. Ideals are fantastic things. They keep us moving and growing and stretching. They also tend to beat us up a bit on the way there. My ideal usually looks like this:. But, this time it isn't just about the weight. It has GOT to be about something more. I've got to let go of the above ideal, and figure out my idea...Maybe...

Time For Mo: December 2011
http://timeformo.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 29, 2011. I was really inspired by this post. Yesterday. This is a really wonderful blog, written by a fabulous person working through a tremendous amount of grief and learning as a result of losing her young son last year. This morning in my scripture study I think I found a verse that sums it up handily:. SEEK GOOD. . . THAT YE MAY LIVE" (Amos 5:14). And who is that? Some other wonderful thoughts about seeking the good. Wednesday, December 28, 2011. Let's Take An Inventory, Shall We?

Time For Mo: Simplifying and Streamlining
http://timeformo.blogspot.com/2012/07/simplifying-and-streamlining.html
Monday, July 16, 2012. This dual blog identity is just too much for me. So, in the spirit of simplification a la Thoreau, I am transferring back to just the one little ole' family blog: www.damanandmo.blogspot.com. It is public now so feel free to wander over if'n you want. This blog is too serious and too draining to try to make any good. I'd much rather write about my kids. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Time For Mo: Bow Down to Me. . .
http://timeformo.blogspot.com/2013/11/bow-down-to-me.html
Tuesday, November 19, 2013. Bow Down to Me. . . For I am the queen of unrealistic expectations. Don't even try to hang with me. Check out my track record, average-expecting commoner:. Never run before and sort of hate it? I think that means I'll train for a marathon. First year of teaching and putting children in daycare? I must be teacher of the year and mother of the year simultaneously or I don't deserve to do either. Think your sweet tooth might be a little out of control? Need to lose some weight?
