Audrey Michal: October 2010
http://findingmyownlife.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 31, 2010. Yesterday was a home game. Today was a primary program. Posted by Audrey Michal. Friday, October 29, 2010. Two sides to emotions. Today was a harder day than others this week. It was not a bad day: there was no extended crying behind the clothes racks. It was just hard. I felt like I had to work, really work. To maintain my usually-natural calm. Fighting off negative thoughts felt like a real battle. I won it, but it required true exertion. I am usually stronger. Owen is full of...

Audrey Michal: She's a Brick House
http://findingmyownlife.blogspot.com/2011/06/shes-brick-house.html
Saturday, June 04, 2011. She's a Brick House. Our house is in the process of getting brick. Yes, the siding is still yellow, but as there are now several houses around us under construction, I can now reports that the yellow is perfectly natural and will turn beige with time.and paint. It seems that the mess has to get worse before it gets better. Again with the mess. Nothing has changed in back, but you can see the brick layers hard at work. They are almost completely done with that side of the house.

Audrey Michal: November 2010
http://findingmyownlife.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 26, 2010. All I want for christmas. I have lost my ongoing battle against consumerism. I fell into the trap of Black Friday specials, and the argument, "but it's on. Want, instead of taking the time to really want something that I would value. I will enjoy the assortment of movies I'll open Christmas morning, especially The Philadelphia Story that I have wanted, but I don't anticipate any of it. This entry looks terribly ungrateful. I did not mean to complain that I am getting gifts&...

Audrey Michal: February 2011
http://findingmyownlife.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 18, 2011. It all began with Andrea plopping down in her chair behind me and asking, "How would you. Feel about not working a game day this fall.". No, I mean, how would you feel about not working any game days this fall? How would I feel? Is now a bad time to mention that I have plotted waiting until two weeks before football season begins to give my notice, willing to reconsider only on this very stipulation? That you commit to work through football season.". There’s a raise in it...

Audrey Michal: January 2012
http://findingmyownlife.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 26, 2012. I have been making an effort since staying home to avoid letting myself go. I get up, shower every morning, dress in the cute maternity tops Joyce gave me, and even put on makeup. And then I get the comment, "Well, that shirt isn't as bad as I expected a peacock shirt to look.". And I cry off all my makeup by noon. Posted by Audrey Michal. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Audrey Michal: April 2011
http://findingmyownlife.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 26, 2011. Hair of the Dog. I know caffeine affects me. I know that it makes my nightmares ten times worse. And I know that Dr. Pepper tastes freakin' fantastic. So when my friends were over, popping open cans, I reflected on what I knew, and then I took a can. I was wired until midnight, and then my dreams were vivid and brutal reenactments of Game of Thrones, et al., which I haven't read since 2003. When I woke, my eyes were bright red and my entire body cried out for more sleep. Wednesda...

Emilie's blog: Lessons I've learned from Peter
http://sunshineinmysoultoday.blogspot.com/2010/10/lessons-ive-learned-from-peter.html
The life and times of one Emilie Anne Gardner. Monday, October 25, 2010. Lessons I've learned from Peter. 24 But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary. The fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea. 26 And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear. 27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good. It is I; be not afraid. Winds were blowing....

Emilie's blog: "I forgive you"
http://sunshineinmysoultoday.blogspot.com/2011/11/i-forgive-you.html
The life and times of one Emilie Anne Gardner. Wednesday, November 09, 2011. After school I talked to them. I asked them what happened. "He called me a b-word! He started choking me! Honestly, I feel like the words, "I'm sorry" free only one person in the equation (and that's the wrong-doer). For both parties to be free from whatever action was taken, the wrong-doer needs to apologize so he/she is free from guilt and the wronged needs to forgive so he/she is free from anger and resentment. Paul and Lori ...

Emilie's blog: Every, Every Minute
http://sunshineinmysoultoday.blogspot.com/2010/10/every-every-minute.html
The life and times of one Emilie Anne Gardner. Wednesday, October 20, 2010. Every, Every Minute. The last few days have been a bit difficult for me. I have had way more things to be grateful for than I had to be upset about but I was upset. I did not focus on the positive. I wallowed in my bad mood. I had happy moments - don't get me wrong. I was just having a hard time choosing to be happy. Today was another day where I was upset. I didnt know you had a blog! Oh how I miss Concert Choir.and you! We get ...
