Catch a glimpse of the elusive Lainey over at Chic Critique. I know. You saw this, and you thought I wasn’t pretty. I love how God worked it out so that I had just gotten new sunglasses and just had my hair done when Megan called and asked for a picture.
Note to self: wear sunglasses [...]

My new bloggy friend Michelle tagged me for the 7 random things meme, which I’ve done once before here. Since it seems to take such things to get me to write a blog post these days, I will gladly participate.

This is my new swimsuit (as if I’ll actually be able to wear it before June here, but I thought I’d better buy it before all the cute suits in my size got snapped up). Mine is turquoise…to match my eyes. ; ) And mine has a removable halter strap. It has been so long [...]

Shannon’s running a Greatest Hits edition of Works for me Wednesday today. This one, originally published in July 2007, is one of my faves. It ought to be fun to check out everyone’s favorite ideas.

I’m gonna be 40 this year, people. I feel like I can sound pretty old and crotchety on this blog, but I look about 12 years old (ok, maybe 20 now) and I often feel about 4 years old inside (actually, I think that probably shows on this blog, too, darn it).
Being the introspective [...]

You’ll love this little writing exercise I found out about from Stephanie at Bad Mom. I had fun looking around her links to SMITH magazine’s Story Projects and NPR‘s slideshow version.

As my pretend BFF Beth Moore likes to say, “You got to deal with your stuff.”
And, oh, isn’t there something about having children that bubbles up all that stuff that needs to be dealt with? My pBFF pointed this out in Believing God (I think) when she noted that Enoch first begat Methuselah, then he [...]
