the front lawn: one month list
http://thefrontlawn.blogspot.com/2009/11/one-month-list.html
Wednesday, November 11, 2009. Know what that means? One month exactly until I leave the UK as a resident. Next time I set foot on this island I'll be nothing more than a tourist. An educated tourist, but a tourist all the same. The last month has disappeared and I know that if I'm not intentional I will leave these shores with too much regret. Today I sat down and wrote a list - a list of all the (non-work-related) things I must do before I leave England. 1 see a West End show. 3 go to the sea. Yup, I ha...

the front lawn: October 2010
http://thefrontlawn.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 19, 2010. This gorgeous clear crisp day is making me sad to leave Toronto, but oh! The west coast is calling. Dean and I are doing a pretty good job of crossing items off our TO to-do list (see update below). We leave a week from today and will arrive in Seattle one more week after that. We're making the move into a wee holiday/adventure, taking the drive a little slower, with exciting stops at Mt. Rushmore and Yellowstone Park—two places I have always wanted to visit. 8212;all the thing...

humility: a friend with benefits |
https://hisearthgirl.wordpress.com/2011/03/25/humility-a-friend-with-benefits
Humility: a friend with benefits. Have you ever been surprised to find yourself thanking God for something? Maybe it was with a sigh, you breathed, “Thank you God I’m not feeling well today so I can sleep.” But what about a time you were thankful for a great loss, or heart-break? I found myself thanking God for breaking my life and heart over the hard edge of exhaustion and depression – a prayer I only paid lip service to until now. 8220;Thank you Jesus for humbling me.”. It leads us to shame ( Prov 11:2.

the front lawn: two week list
http://thefrontlawn.blogspot.com/2010/10/two-week-list.html
Tuesday, October 12, 2010. Forgive the cliche, but it really does feel like just yesterday we were packing up the Chapel and saying goodbye to Oxford. Now we're in the same spot again, wrapping up nine months in Toronto, and oh-so excited to start life on the West Coast. It's around this time in any move when I start to get some early nostalgia for the place I'm living. Before we left the UK, I put together a one-month list. Three down, nine to go! 4 Tour the Steamwhistle brewery. 5 See a show. Visit the...

the front lawn: my front lawn is your front lawn
http://thefrontlawn.blogspot.com/2006/07/my-front-lawn-is-your-front-lawn.html
Monday, July 10, 2006. My front lawn is your front lawn. In the kitchen, he poured another drink and looked at the bedroom suite in his front yard. The mattress was stripped and the candy-striped sheets lay beside two pillows on the chiffonier. Except for that, things looked much the way they had in the bedroom- nightstand and reading lamp on his side of the bed, nightstand and reading lamp on her side. He considered this as he sipped the whisky." -Carver. Posted by Amanda Lee Smith. Follow me on Twitter.

its not fair… |
https://hisearthgirl.wordpress.com/2012/02/04/its-not-fair
Its not fair…. Saying “it’s not fair” has caused many a girl to toss aside what she knows is right for the temporary thrill of whatever it is that does seem fair. But the next day the sun will rise as it has a habit of doing each day…. Guilt floods her body. Questions fill her mind. Self-doubt wrecks her confidence. And then comes the anger. Anger at herself. Anger at the object of her desire. Anger even at a mighty God who surely could have prevented this. Excerpt from “ Made to Crave. Where is clinging...
