Mining for Jems: July 2012
http://miningforjems.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Opening my window on the world. Friday, 27 July 2012. It's a tradition in our family for me and Andy to make the children the biggest, chocolatiest (is that a word? Most outrageous cakes for their birthdays. We figure, hey, you have one birthday a year, you're only a child for a short time, so what the heck - when it comes to birthday cakes - it has to be a whopper. Friday, July 27, 2012. Monday, 23 July 2012. Still, Andy's home with the kids this week so I'm hoping they make the most of the sun. Our hou...

Mining for Jems: Heather
http://miningforjems.blogspot.com/2011/09/heather.html
Opening my window on the world. Sunday, 18 September 2011. Saturday, September 17, 2011 4:20 PM, EDT. I wish I had good news, the thing in her brain turned out to be a stroke. Her blood pressure never really recovered and she was suffering multiple organ problems. She fought the good fight but succumbed to her bodily failures this afternoon. She died surrounded by family and friends who were in attendance as she ascended. It seems that God has need of something that needs done! Sunday, September 18, 2011.

Mining for Jems: Becoming tolerant of the intolerance
http://miningforjems.blogspot.com/2012/05/becoming-tolerant-of-intolerance.html
Opening my window on the world. Sunday, 20 May 2012. Becoming tolerant of the intolerance. I've been dairy intolerant since I was a child. I grew up knowing that if I drank a glass of milk I'd get stomach cramps and associated digestive problems. (We won't go into detail here! Did you know that milk is injected into meat to make it easeir to slice? Did you know that milk is added to soya alternatives to bulk out the protein as the soya itself is far too concentrated? So, if you're dairy intolerant and tu...

Mining for Jems: March 2012
http://miningforjems.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Opening my window on the world. Sunday, 18 March 2012. Drummer on the motorway. Amidst the gloom, the concern that people were seriously hurt and general banter amongst the crowd, about four cars back I heard lots of laughing and before I knew it, some guy had got out part of his drum kit, hopped it over the crash barrier into the middle of the abandoned motorway, set up and started playing. So, the evening plans changed, but an experience, quite oddly, I enjoyed. Sunday, March 18, 2012. Handed On A Plate.

Mining for Jems: January 2012
http://miningforjems.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Opening my window on the world. Sunday, 8 January 2012. Prayers From Pocket Sized People. Kids Church started up again today and I was so thrilled to be on rota for the first week. I always find it harder coming on rota halfway through a topic as the momentum has already built up and for me it's like opening a book halfway through or flicking over to a good film an hour in.

Mining for Jems: Reindeer and Rejoicing
http://miningforjems.blogspot.com/2011/12/ready-for-reindeer.html
Opening my window on the world. Saturday, 24 December 2011. The children have been busy today - making sure the house is tidy for Santa's arrival, baking cakes to share with family members tomorrow, wrapping last minute presents and hiding them under the tree. Snacks and drinks are left just in case Santa and the reindeer are feeling peckish, stockings are hung on beds and last snuggles are had cosied up on the sofa before heading to bed. And all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them.

Mining for Jems: A tale of two Lukes
http://miningforjems.blogspot.com/2012/02/tale-of-two-lukes.html
Opening my window on the world. Wednesday, 15 February 2012. A tale of two Lukes. Do you ever get those days when you can leave something lying around for ages, then one day, somebody will make a random comment that sets you on a trail of research and discovery? I had that this morning. Whether Luke, the gospel writer and Luke Skywalker were ever connected in George Lucas's mind, who knows? But I found it rather intriguing. Wednesday, February 15, 2012.

Mining for Jems: Market Fun
http://miningforjems.blogspot.com/2011/12/market-fun.html
Opening my window on the world. Friday, 23 December 2011. Today I headed into the town where I work with 3 of the children, mainly to visit family and drop off presents and cards. It's amazing how just getting out into fresh air can really lift your spirits and today's trip to the fantastic fruit and veg market in the town centre offered the perfect opportunity for a bit of fun.
