Random Thoughts, Organized Chaotically. Saturday, March 15, 2008. The Need For Compassion. Say what you will about Republicans, but they really are good for our character. Consider the words of Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, a teacher of Kadampa Buddhism, in his book Universal Compassion: "[I]f we practice training the mind purely, we can turn these faults and imperfections of our times- which usually cause great difficulties and suffering- into causes of spiritual paths.". So in the pursuit of peace and compassi...

Random Thoughts, Organized Chaotically. Sunday, April 30, 2006. Random Thoughts, News Inspired: Volume II. 1 I came upon this exciting news item at yahoo.com today:. Women break bra world record.

PAPHOS, Cyprus (Reuters) - Women on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus created the world's longest chain of bras of Sunday, linking together nearly 115,000 of the garments covering 111 km (70 miles), organisers said.". My initial reaction was "Was this a spontaneous record-breaking? Happi...

Friday, March 27, 2009. Wanna take a good look at what the sky used to be like? And maybe spend some time thinking about your energy consumption? This Saturday, people (and cities!

Thursday, July 30, 2009. Long Time, No See. It's been so long since I posted anything here that I was not sure I still remembered how. If you're reading this, I have indeed found my way back and am not as foolish as I thought. 1 We're heading for Chicago! 2 Elise is two weeks away from starting KINDERGARTEN. Our little punkin is officially school-aged now. Growing like a weed. Can't tell she lost her front teeth because they've grown back in already. Reads like a pro. Knows exactly wh...3 I just finished...

Sunday, December 13, 2009. Believe it or not, there were 4 birthdays in close proximity to one another in Elise's class this month. Four! Links to this post. Andy and I like to think we're very clever. We might be. We had a brilliant plan to take Elise to a Sharks game for her birthday. So, we picked a non-school night near the big day and bought tickets. The Sharks were hosting the Chicago Blackhawks, and it was going to be a big game. Links to this post. Thanksgiving with the Whites. For a second year ...

Friday, March 19, 2010. It took month, but the doctors finally figured out the reason our girl has been limping and wincing in pain since Valentine's Day. A hairline fracture of her femur! Yikes Either she has a very high tolerance for pain or this is minor and will heal up now that we can actually treat her for it. I may have a rant about non-communicative doctors at some point in the future, but for now I'd rather focus on helping Elise with her freshly painted GOLD crutches. Links to this post.

Sunday, September 20, 2009. Shiny New Dining Chairs. What do we do here at Steingruebl World Enterprises when it's hot and miserable outside? Well, mostly we complain and get all grouchy with each other. But today we had a better idea! A few months back, I bought upholstery fabric off eBay that ended up being about $7/yard after shipping and all. Our dining chairs have been looking scummy, and I figured I'd fix 'em. How scummy were they, you might ask? Oh let me show you. So, yeah, we needed a change.

Sunday, May 9, 2010. This Mother's Day, I am especially grateful to be a mother. Not that I really took this motherhood thing for granted before, but this time around the day is especially sweet and oh am I grateful to wake up in the morning to big, shining blue eyes and a brilliant gap-toothed smile. Elise was given a complete set of Little House on the Prairie books as a gift this past week, and she has been soaking in the stories at every opportunity. House on the Prary. From Elise to Hether.
