The weather outside is one hundred percent fall-like: blowy, stormy, just enough chill to the air to keep me inside, glad I can be inside and just listen to it. I was going to settle down to read this evening, but thought better of it as I have been reading. All. Day. Not that I …
What’s Going On
Hello October! I’m loving the color creeping through the trees, and (some) colder weather. We’ve already been apple picking, and have our pumpkins to carve. I am endeavoring to keep our kitchen island top cleared, and have a few fun things to take the place of junk that used to sit there: candles, miniature pumpkins, …
Stranger Things
Little bit of a rough day today- Luke and I felt that I should see a doctor about the miscarriage, and so I went in this morning. The nurse that had scheduled me gave some pushback: How did I know I was pregnant? Maybe irregularities were happening in my advanced age? and so on. It …
Days of Summer
June June began with our semi-annual dentist appointments. I think that might be the last time I've written here. Strange story- Luke hates going to the dentist, so has put off the visit for a year or two. I scheduled him for a day here recently, and prayed that the cleaning and exam would NOT …
Drop Everything
I'm at the dentist this morning. Kenan and Elijah have need of fillings, and I am doing my best to keep busy while I wait. Why not dust off the blog? I have approached writing here many times these past few weeks, but each time I end up boring even myself, which can't bode well. …
Probability
Probability Math is one of my loves. A few years ago I purchased a math bible of sorts, called Mathematics 1001. In it are just over a thousand bite-sized pieces of information that come from the different branches of mathematics. Whenever I get the notion, I’ll pull this big tome off of my bookshelf, like …
On Licenses and Coffee
Life is going pretty good here. I have been ill, but getting better just makes me more grateful for the majority of the time being good. T minus nine days until Sam’s graduation party, and I don’t feel quite ready. But if I can at least spend each of the next few days thinking about …
The Grace of His Spirit
First, some thoughts on food prep. The other day, we had some friends over for dinner, and we grilled out. The chicken, when it was done, was put in the oven to keep while Luke finished the other meats. Our friends had brought some chicken to grill, too, so that by the time we sat …
In A Word
What a day! We just found out last night that a dear friend was going to have open heart surgery today, and have been following that all day. He is out of surgery; it went well. Here’s hoping there is a good recovery, and no more surprises. This surgery was a 5-bypass. Luke was saying …
What Is Wrong
Indulge me for one more post, down in a hole in a log in the middle of the sea. I’ve been down more than I’ve been up lately, and it makes me ponder what might be causing it. Last week about this time I would have thought things were looking up- I had just started …
