Buying Less, Living More: June 2009
http://buyinglesslivingmore.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Buying Less, Living More. Our journey to a simpler life. June 28, 2009. Isn't really the best title for this blog post. It is more like Coupons x 1000! My choices are: 1. Take a day this week (preferably before that store ads end on Wednesday) and organize the darn things. or 2. Recycle them all and quit. Well, I am not a quitter! And, what can you do when your 12 year old wants you to start couponing again? So, Monday I will get myself organized and get to the store! From melissa lake's posterous. There...

July | 2014 | This Is Where I Stand
https://thisiswhereistand.wordpress.com/2014/07
This Is Where I Stand. Feet grounded, eyes open, grateful to be me. July 30, 2014. Everywhere I look, there is loveliness. From the simple oak top of my kitchen table to the small people who sleep, undisturbed, in bedrooms where fans blow gentle wind across their faces all night long. I didn’t mean for my life to be this busy. I had no idea it would be this lovely heart-breakingly gorgeous when what’s hard is also beautiful. Perfection is never something I’ve hungered for but rather the beauty an...And w...

Vocation | This Is Where I Stand
https://thisiswhereistand.wordpress.com/2015/01/21/vocation
This Is Where I Stand. Feet grounded, eyes open, grateful to be me. January 21, 2015. January 23, 2015. Right now I’m in a bit of a vocational crisis. It would help if I explained a few things to start: I am currently half time Communications Director and quarter time Lecturer in English at a smallish Lutheran college in the Pacific Northwest. This is a job I literally fell into, and my roles at the college have changed and grown in the five years that I’ve worked there. Even writing about it here, the f...

December | 2013 | This Is Where I Stand
https://thisiswhereistand.wordpress.com/2013/12
This Is Where I Stand. Feet grounded, eyes open, grateful to be me. December 29, 2013. This season has been one of unraveling of unending the things I thought I could count on and transforming my heart into something new entirely. On June 7, 2012, we arrived home from China with our third child a boy, Matthew, 18 months, with an unrepaired cleft lip and palate. And so began a journey I never expected would be ours. Such is the journey I find myself on right now. It’s a bipolar path, for sure. One day...

Table for 5: April 2011
http://tableforfiveb.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 26, 2011. The month of April. April started with the 1st. As does every month. But we know that it is April Fool's Day, and until you have kids it is a day that gets a little forgotten. My older two kids are now truly understanding the "Fool" part of the day. Starting off the morning with a "Mom, there is a horse coming down our road! WE SO GOT YOU! Yes you did, my dear children. Yes you did. When did they grow up? We have also been madly finishing our basement. This is a huge time vac...

Table for 5: Celebrating My Dad Today

Sunday, March 6, 2016. Celebrating My Dad Today. Happy Birthday, Dad! My Mum and Dad today. They look good, right? And I'm sorry if this post embarrasses you. I wanted everyone to have a glimpse at your awesomeness! Be the voice that they can hear that leads them, to know when to be the calm in the storm. I'm sure when you saw me those 40 years ago, you thought “Wow! 8221; and then followed by maybe a little bit of internal panic and “Holy smokes what am I going to do with a girl! My dad WAS,. That taugh...
