December 31st, 2006 · 6 Comments · Controversy, Conversation

I have a few nails with which to scratch that itch, but I am not going to spend large amounts of time at it right now-see below for what I am willing to do. I am “The True Grit Lady” cited in one of their posts.
They have threads wondering why Christian don’t ( I was [...]

Looking Forward to 2007

December 31st, 2006 · 2 Comments · Cat-in-a-bag

Didn’t realize my last post had gone through, the site has been having a hard time staying up- although JD is working on stabalizing things. I don’t envy him his job.
Anyway, after I had written it, I noticed that Saddam had been executed – tried to comment, but that didn’t post. You know, I will [...]

Been a long time coming…

December 30th, 2006 · 8 Comments · Cat-in-a-bag

It’s been over a week! The grown kids are all back South, I wished they would’ve stayed longer. My internet was out a couple days, and I can’t find the adapter cord to my laptap( I think it got tossed into the Christmas storage boxes- I hope I hope). Why do they make the batteries [...]

The song is by the band “Pillar”. I really like their music. My son recommended them to me- and he is the music expert around here. Future podcasts, should there be any, may not have much music, at least not until I understand more about [...]

Winding Down the Year

December 21st, 2006 · 2 Comments · Cat-in-a-bag, Who Knows, fragments

Christmas will be here in a couple days… and too quickly past. I asked for and got an early Christmas present: a membership to Curves, which if you haven’t heard of it is a women’s exercise place. I went for the first time this morning. It was pretty simple, which is what I wanted. [...]

The Quiet of Christmas

December 20th, 2006 · No Comments · Contemplations

If you find yourself caught up in the hustle and bustle of shopping, rushing around, mailing and baking, perhaps you have been missing out on some of the things that make the season so beautiful. Winter, with its cold and dormant state is a background of quietness. To meditate while listening to the old Christmas [...]

Wise Words on the Housing Market

December 20th, 2006 · No Comments · Cacophony

from Fools.
The guys @ Motley Fool are a pretty savvy group of stock market pundits. I’ve gotten a bit of good advice from them, or two bits…along the way. So when one of their writers had something to say on the state of the housing market ( which has wildly diverse advice and opinions) I [...]

Reading and Writing

December 19th, 2006 · No Comments · Cat-in-a-bag

Everyday I have been posting something somewhere. I’ve either been very,very good in this respect…or very,very bad. Depends on your perspective.
Accidentally crossposted @ Happy Thoughts with the same post as @ my old house, but earlier I had written down an event from Church that morning. Every day there is a new Advent post. [...]

Is Blogging Good For Your Marriage?

December 19th, 2006 · No Comments · Clannish -Family, announcement

I guess I will find out. My husband has been fairly benign about my sometimes obsessive blogging. Now, I have finally finagled him into joining me on my D-I-Y blog, because, frankly, he does all the real work and provides the hands-on expertise. I’m mostly the research and ideas department.
