Wonju Wife: July 2013
http://tuesdaysborrower.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
So here's to a super duper reality check. Writing only happens if you set aside time and don't find one million other legitimate things to do. Being prepared for things, like teaching classes with A PLAN instead of winging it, knowing what I'm cooking for dinner, and having a list to shop by MAKE MY LIFE BETTER. But for some reason, that reward isn't enough for me to be prepared more than a few times a week. Look at that. I finished something. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Even Pretty Girls Need to Read.

Wonju Wife: May 2012
http://tuesdaysborrower.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
I just finished my first run since Jude was born. Ok, who am I kidding? It was my first run since I got pregnant. And I am not dead. It wasn't long. All I did was complete day 1 of the ease into 5k program. But it felt amazing. Kenny went with me and I listened to music! So all that to say, I pushed play. And I did not die. What a lovely Sunday. This very short blog post is just to let you know that I'm not going to quit writing here, but I have started writing over at Hey Jude. The Thoughts In My Head.

Wonju Wife: Sometimes It Goes Like This
http://tuesdaysborrower.blogspot.com/2012/09/sometimes-it-goes-like-this.html
Sometimes It Goes Like This. I was walking from the coffee shop, crossing the road to the academy where I teach part-time, when I noticed it. I was in the middle of the crosswalk, and I felt good. I smiled. And I did. After I had written it and rewritten it and reread and reorganized and rewritten and reread once more, it was done. Writing is always hard work. Every time. Maybe when I write, I am somehow tapping into the very essence of what I am meant to do and who I am meant to be. So after I spend...

Wonju Wife: April 2013
http://tuesdaysborrower.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
I am on Day 5 of a 100 Day Project that I started last week. I wanted to tell you about it, mainly because it's the first time I've committed to something like this for so long and I think it's the first time I've done it properly, in a way that I can succeed. I started with 3 simple main goals with a few more tiny personal goals penciled in here and there. But my main focus is this:. But I'm taking suggestions! I'm using the Lift. I have one rule about this project: If I miss a day, IT IS OKAY. I wi...

What Is Wrong With Me. You can get stuff done! Why do you think you'll be a failure? Do you think other mothers who can't or don't want to breastfeed are failures? Think: I want to breastfeed Jude because I enjoy it and it's special to me and for some reason it's extremely important to me that I succeed at this and don't give up. If you've been a long-time reader of this blog (and let's face it, being a reader of this blog these days is like the easiest job in the world, am I right? I finally worked myse...

A Response to the Gosepl Coalition | Rediscovery
https://rediscovery.wordpress.com/2014/03/25/a-response-to-the-gosepl-coalition
Rediscovering my God, my Faith, and Myself. March 25, 2014. A Response to the Gosepl Coalition. In the backlash against World Vision’s decision to open it’s employment to anyone who’s married, Trevin Wax of the Gospel Coalition released this response on his blog. While I have my opinions on that matter, which would be quite controversial within my own family much less the whole internet, I will put those aside for the time being and focus on this bit from Trevin Wax’s blog post. My 1st divorce wasn’...

My Tiny Kingdom » Problems With Pain
http://mytinykingdom.net/2009/03/25/problems-with-pain
March 25, 2009. Today I wanted to write about our recent adventures in Costa Rica or post pictures of the anatomically correct chalk drawings Drew and Porter decorated our driveway with recently. Instead I’m writing about pain– physical pain– as it’s had me in its jaws for the better part of three weeks. Longtime readers know that I’ve had two spine surgeries, one for scoliosis and a second to address complications. This upper back pain is a new kind of pain for me, and I haven’t been managing it w...

Life is a Marathon...: January 2015
http://www.marathonmelanie.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 28, 2015. Day Trip to the Biltmore. During our weekend in Gatlinburg/Smoky Mountains, Adam and I made sort of a last minute decision to drive to Asheville, NC one day and tour the Biltmore Estate. We were not disappointed! We headed out early, and we were there about an hour and a half later. I was pretty excited because it was the very last day of Christmas at Biltmore. I had heard the house is gorgeous decorated for Christmas, so I knew I'd love it! It also helped that it was the off...

Wonju Wife: Gratitude covers a Multitude
http://tuesdaysborrower.blogspot.com/2012/09/gratitude-covers-multitude.html
Gratitude covers a Multitude. First Thank you. Yes, YOU. Thank you for all your kind comments, amazing encouragement, thoughtful and supportive emails, and phone calls. I read them all, multiple times. I'm probably not finished rereading them, either, to tell you the truth. I'm moving forward no matter how much I feel things are all backwards for me. So grey hair is a positive sign at the moment. In short, I could go on. Because there are so many good things in my life currently. But I'm so BIG, ...Anywa...

Wonju Wife: March 2012
http://tuesdaysborrower.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
There is this tiny, hungry mouth between us. But the ropes of the past three years of marriage, and the two years before that day we said we would love each other with abandon and without boundaries are also between us, tying us to each other. The cords of our dreams and hopes for the future are braided together with those of our beautiful past. And I believe those ties will bind us together through the difficulties of our present. It's not the weight you carry. But how you carry it-. It's all in the way.
