Six Sentence Stories – Take My Hand
“That is why a man leaves his father and mother and clings to his wife, and the two of them become one body.” He sat in the pew, staring, listening, recalling those words read from the pulpit on his own wedding day, his bride standing next to him in the same spot where the young couple…

TToT – Wants, Needs, and Practicality
It is not always possible to do or get what you want. Sure, that would be nice, wouldn’t it? To be able to do exactly what you want to do when you want to do it? To be able to have anything you want right when you desire it? Sounds awesome, doesn’t it? Maybe. But then…

TToT/FTSF Mashup – For These Things We Are Thankful
It’s Sunday night and my link-up posts aren’t finished. I’ve spent the last several days alternating between wishing I could come up with something terrifically profound and hoping I just get something on the page and completely forgetting that I need to write the thing in the first place. It’s not that I don’t feel…

TToT – The Never-Ending Cold
I still have a cold. I think this must be the cold from hell, brought on by the unbelievably inconsistent weather here – unseasonably mild, then sub-zero wind chills, then up into the 30s, then down to the teens, then up to nearly 60 degrees, then a plummet to the 20s. No wonder my head…

Soup of the Week – Healing Cabbage Soup for a Cold
Know what you do when you suddenly come into an abundance of cabbage heads? You make soup! At least that’s what I do… For the last couple of years, we have split a CSA share with my Husband’s parents. As our season ended this fall, they were out of town so we inherited both halves of…

TToT – We’re Here Already?
I can’t believe it’s the weekend again already. I also can’t believe that Halloween and Thanksgiving have come and gone, that autumn is now two-thirds past, and we’re heading rapidly toward Hanukkah next weekend and Christmas not far behind. Time moves so fast… What is it that Ferris Bueller said? “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t…

TToT – Finding My Groove…and Peace
Wow. Just wow. Well, I muddled through OctPoWriMo – sorta. I somehow anticipated having more time, producing more words, posting more posts…then life happened. I even missed a TToT or two which I truly never do. And now, here we are a week into November and NaNoWriMo I’m feeling a bit like I’m trying to climb a very…

TToT – A Bit of Progress
I skipped the TToT link-up last weekend. I never do that. It wasn’t for lack of intent or even lack of things for which to be thankful. It was simply the result of circumstance. So this week I have plenty to add. Mostly I think I’ve found many ways to acknowledge small bits of progress (remember…

OctPoWriMo Day 22 – Sacred Store
So OctPoWriMo completely got away from me… First, a blog malfunction set me back a couple of days. Then I spent a few days trying to recover from the blog malfunction. Then I got a cold. Then we went away for a couple of days. Then… You know…the stuff of life. I’ve given up on the…

TToT – My People
There’s a lot going on around here right now. The in-real world is pretty stressful and demanding right now and I’d be lying if I said I’m handling with anything close to finesse. I’m not. I’m exhausted. I’m not sleeping. My eczema is springing up like crazy. I’m getting pimples – and that’s ridiculous. I…
