I’m BAA-AACK. It’s been six weeks since I decided to take a break from blogging, and let me tell you, the clean cool air above the blogosphere is right-nice. In fact, I wrote three different “comeback” posts, but they were all lame and just an inferior version of what I wrote last year about my…Continue reading Is this just January talkin’?

When the Gallup Pollster Handed Me a Mirror
Now that the election is over (sigh of relief), I have a story for you. Probably like you, we have received approximately nine gagillion political phone calls over the past month. It surely doesn’t help that I live in North Carolina, a swing state, nor does it help that I am a registered Independent. And…Continue reading When the Gallup Pollster Handed Me a Mirror

Jesus Talks about Real Food
You might not know this about me, but I’m a little bit cynical.

Don’t Read This If You’re a Bleeding Heart Like Me

For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live…Continue reading Don’t Read This If You’re a Bleeding Heart Like Me
Perspective
Every day when my kids leave for school, my kitchen looks something like this. And even though it is not hard to clean my tiny kitchen or my 1100 square foot house, sometimes the tedium of wiping the same counters, and straightening the same beds, gets old. Sometimes, I lose perspective and I sink into…Continue reading Perspective

How to find Rest
Remember how in the last post I said I was tired? Well, I have been. And I’ve been a little depressed too. I think some of it is the September blues, but I also think that maybe I’ve been falling into my tendency to think that if I just get everything done, organized, scheduled, planned,…Continue reading How to find Rest
The Shut-Up Katrina Project
Okay, right off the bat, if you follow The Poorganic Life for the real food advice, do not despair. Since I’m going on vacation FOR FIVE KID FREE DAYS with my hot husband (WHOOT-WOOT), I’ve decided to rerun some of my very first Eating Poorganically posts from a year ago when we first started this…Continue reading The Shut-Up Katrina Project
L Verse
Remember Letter Verses? That great verse memorization program from days of old? Well, even though I am woefully behind on our progress through the alphabet, we have pressed on and now mastered the letter L-verse.(Just in case you’ve mistakenly assumed that Letter Verses is for kids, let me reassure you; God’s Word works on old…Continue reading L Verse
