It’s our second day iced in. Although I’ve been wanting a snow (ice) day all winter, the timing is really inconvenient on this one. Because of course. Lots of pictures. Cuz that’s what I’m doing today. These are the greatest movie speeches are all time. How did I internet before Clickhole? (More at the link, […]
It’s been beautiful here lately: sixties and seventies, clear skies. But it’s still February. Eighteen more days links! 10 Bible scenes that should be made into LEGO Sets. For the Protestants, just substitute Elijah and the Prophets of Baal for Judith. C.S. Lewis titles on-line. 19 fairly useful baking hacks. (The headline at the link […]
This week was already cross-eyed and off schedule (as evidenced by the fact that I’m throwing this together over a late lunch rather than having it scheduled), but then Bulldozer decided to get sick at occupational therapy. (Well, maybe not decided, but he did get sick.) So a half hour drive home with a vomiting […]
I have plans for next year. Big plans. HUGE plans. I’m going to say “no” to everything. No activities, no events, no sports, no classes, no gatherings, no laundry, no cleaning, no cooking, no dressing. Just no. Actually, that looks a lot like death, which I’m certainly not planning on. Back to the drawing board […]
My goal: to cross the January 31 finish line if I have to drag myself across. Seriously, January, what’s your deal? This is why February only has 28 days, we all need a break after January. Interminable month links! A.A. Milne reads Winnie-the-Pooh. On it’s face, using the Bible to make a papier-mâché mask is tacky. However, […]
I’m in my hometown visiting my parents for a few days. After one week stumbling around a post-holiday routine, I’m on my parents’ non-schedule schedule. I think the rule is that for every one day of your regular schedule, it takes three to get back on. I’ll should be back on a regular routine just […]
Feast, that is. January 6 is the Feast of the Epiphany, the celebration of the visit of the Magi to the baby Jesus. Or more likely toddler Jesus, who must have been thrilled with Frankincense. We normally try to have some sort of feast with friends, but we’ve been having trouble with lift-off the past […]
I spent an irritatingly long time on Friday and Saturday clearing out my email. Since then, I’ve been aggressive about dealing with and deleting everything that I receive. Today, I’ve already deleted a dozen “last chance” emails. Last chance to save in 2014, last chance to give in 2014, last chance to do the rumba. […]
I’m not ready! I’m not ready! I’m not ready! Panicked links! Do you want to know how to get the Audible book of A Christmas Carol narrated by Tim Curry for just $0.99? Of course, you do! Okay, this is the deal: If you have the Kindle version of a book, very often you can […]
Not in feeling grinchy about Christmas but about its relentless approach, whether I’m ready or not. “He hadn’t stopped Christmas from coming, it came! Somehow or other… it came just the same.” Oh yeah, I feel that. Time’s-a-wasting links! This made me do a nerdy dance of joy: time capsule opened that was buried in […]
