Painted Maypole: my 2011
http://paintedmaypole.blogspot.com/2012/01/my-2011.html
Sunday, January 8, 2012. My fourth annual look back at the previous year. 1 What did you do in 2011 that you’d never done before? Bought a house that needed a lot of work. STILL needs a lot of work. 2 Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year? 3 Did anyone close to you give birth? 4 Did anyone close to you die? 5 Where did you travel? 6 What would you like to have in 2012 that you lacked in 2011? Comfort and joy. It's been a hard year. I think being there for my husba...

Painted Maypole: April 2012
http://paintedmaypole.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 18, 2012. So I'm rehearsing this new show. How's that for an introduction? Hello Long time, no blog.). Did I mention that the masks are ginormous? And stick out a foot or so past our mouths? And are made of sound absorbing raffia and bark? And we can barely see out of them, and have little idea what exactly is happening around us? My areas of vision are out the mouth, and through a band of mesh that runs between the eyes, below the ears. Peripheral vision is non existent). Ah So basicall...

Painted Maypole: The ORIGINAL ending to The Gospel of Mark
http://paintedmaypole.blogspot.com/2012/04/original-ending-to-gospel-of-mark.html
Thursday, April 5, 2012. The ORIGINAL ending to The Gospel of Mark. The UNTIL NOW missing. Part of the bible that everyone else seems to be following, but I never could figure out why! As you may know, there is scholarly debate over the ending of the gospel of Mark, and most people agree that Mark 16:9-20 is a later addition. But I have found the REAL, ORIGINAL version of these verses (with one additional verse! It was probably preordained! 15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and re-post the...

Painted Maypole: my 2010
http://paintedmaypole.blogspot.com/2011/01/my-2010.html
Monday, January 17, 2011. The past two years I've done this meme in January, and thought maybe it would be both a good way to reflect on the past year, and do some actual blogging again. So here goes. 1 What did you do in 2010 that you’d never done before? I moved back to Michigan. I grew up here, but I've never lived here as an adult. 2 Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year? 3 Did anyone close to you give birth? 4 Did anyone close to you die? Friday July 23rd the...

Painted Maypole: on magical beings
http://paintedmaypole.blogspot.com/2007/09/on-magical-beings.html
Tuesday, September 25, 2007. Hold on to your hat. Our not quite 5 year old daughter knows there is no Santa Claus. Why? Because we told her. At Easter, the whole Easter Bunny thing is fairly easy to avoid, frankly. But again, we have fun with it, even while she knows full well who hides her basket. It does not diminish her excitement about it a single bit. Symbolism matters. and it sounds to me like you are handling it perfectly. Sounds to me like you've struck the perfect balance. :). You know, it's a t...
