I selected the wrong address filler on 4 of my Christmas parcels from Walmart to an address that doesn't exist and somehow one of them was delivered and received. It's an apartment just down the street so I ran down to double check that it wasn't in the lobby but it was no where to … Continue reading A Calm Over the Christmas Season

There’s something about the Fall
There's something about the Fall that just makes me want to have new beginnings. I began my blog in September of last year, life got crazy but again, heading back into that crisp cool time of year, I find myself yearning to come back to what is important to me. I left off my last … Continue reading There’s something about the Fall
Keep on keeping on…
Has anyone ever mentioned it's tough to keep a regular blog going with bipolar disorder? There are periods of time I'm on my game, everything is great and I can regularly post interesting (at least I think so) blog entries but when I get knocked out for a period of time, it takes me a … Continue reading Keep on keeping on…
So much to be thankful for this Christmas
There's so much to be thankful for this Christmas; a screaming 1 year old, a hyperactive 4 year old, two stressed out parents who are exhausted... wait! What am I saying? Yes, it's that time of year when everyone is at their limit! No matter what your situation, know that you are loved by the … Continue reading So much to be thankful for this Christmas
Goodness, Gracious!!
The Magician's Nephew (Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis) was an easy read and would have been done in the matter of a day or two had it not been for me misplacing the book in a random place while attending to my littlest one. I lost track of it for about a week but … Continue reading Goodness, Gracious!!
“Oh my poor nerves, I just can’t bear it!”
I remember reading about some women with anxiety in fiction novels. They would often be characterized as frail, weak and sensitive; all in all, pretty pathetic and a burden to people more than anything else. Admittedly, I would smirk as the authors would target these women using sarcastic humour: "Oh my poor nerves, I just … Continue reading “Oh my poor nerves, I just can’t bear it!”
Making a trip to the past.
There is great joy in cracking open books from your childhood and re-reading them. I'm not a fan of e-books, I like the smell of a good book and flipping the pages as I move my bookmark along. It gives me wonderful satisfaction! It didn't take me long to choose my box set of the … Continue reading Making a trip to the past.
Time for a trip to the Library! My Library.
Over the last few weeks I have been reading Leviticus from the NIV Bible and maybe I'm crazy but it wasn't nearly as bad as other people had said it would be. Repetitive, yes... but I found all the rituals and specific details rather fascinating. Everything must be exact. Precise. From sacrifices to festivals for … Continue reading Time for a trip to the Library! My Library.
