Who needs an alarm clock?: April 2011
http://whoneedsanalarmclock.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Who needs an alarm clock? Monday, April 18, 2011. We were at church yesterday for Palm Sunday and this was Baby Girl's first encounter with the palms that are handed out. (what do they represent again? Something about plant growth? I know I am a bad Catholic) She played around with hers (nearly taking out a few people's eyes) until I finally took it away and put my 4 years of Catholic school education to work and folded her palm into a cross. I did not like the answer, "Um, I forgot". He called me after ...

Who needs an alarm clock?: August 2011
http://whoneedsanalarmclock.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Who needs an alarm clock? Thursday, August 11, 2011. This morning, while I was in the kitchen doing dishes, I heard them playing semi-quietly. Then I heard baby girl shout out, "Mommy, she's bothering me! More like "bovering" with her cute voice). I said, "What is she doing? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Who needs an alarm clock?

Waxing Elephant: Chasing After the Ukulele
http://waxingelephant.blogspot.com/2008/10/chasing-after-ukulele.html
Monday, October 06, 2008. Chasing After the Ukulele. The converse is true, too. Of all the people in the park, I understand no one except those with which I am connected. They are all bassoons and I am walking with my violin. What I do know is, none of this can be captured. The best I can do is to be awake, to be paying attention, to strum the strings, to listen, to feel, and to respond; to enjoy the wind through my fingers and not try to catch it.

Waxing Elephant: April 2009
http://waxingelephant.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 27, 2009. It came to my attention that one girl in my class advised another girl in my class that she could be more popular if she wouldn’t act as smart as she is. I don’t even know where to begin. How in the world did the slacker image become something to aspire to? Surely it is some backlash against some generational work ethic, but still. In Thomas Friedman’s book,. The World is Flat. How is it not cool to think? Amusing Ourselves to Death. And Aldous Huxley’s. And that’s not all&#...

Waxing Elephant: June 2008
http://waxingelephant.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 24, 2008. I've Been Wanting to Tell This One. Several years ago, I found a rat drowned in Katie’s water bucket. Through a series of events, Katie (an Australian shepherd) had inherited a detached two-car garage, the cars had been evicted, and a colony of rats had moved in with Katie to share in her dog food and the bird seed we kept around. Huh Freak accident number two. When I was done, I cried for a long time. So did Katie. 8220;You havin’ a garage sale? 8221; he asked. 8221; He walked in...

Who needs an alarm clock?: Confining the Chaos
http://whoneedsanalarmclock.blogspot.com/2012/07/confining-chaos.html
Who needs an alarm clock? Tuesday, July 10, 2012. People's first question when we tell them is "why? I want my house back. We are overrun with toys, books, blankets, barbies, dolls, clothes, and just STUFF. The girls are constantly dragging their toys back and forth between their two bedrooms (the only rooms upstairs they are allowed to play in) and it creates a "trail of toys" through the hallway that trickles down the stairs.

The Forest and the Trees: December 2006
http://theforestandtrees.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
The Forest and the Trees. Friday, December 15, 2006. A New Pet Peeve. This morning, as I stirred squashed grapes, water, and flour together until they congealed into a gooey paste, I felt an eerie kinship to Dr. Frankenstein. After all, wasn’t I combining several organic elements in the attempt to create something even slightly more alive? 8220;Don’t open the refrigerator door! Anyone want to guess at my New Year’s Resolution? Thursday, December 14, 2006. Tuesday, December 12, 2006. 8220;This is the ocea...

WORDSONWAKING: January 2010

Sunday, January 31, 2010. And then there is JD Salinger.,. So I am not a Salinger, but I am also not yet dead. When his treasure trove of work is published we will no doubt be amazed and wish to add our own comments. Now the question comes, did he stop putting himself out there because of an inflated ego or for a lack of one? Links to this post. Edward Kennedy, A Belated Eulogy. Links to this post.
