https://foldintheordinary.wordpress.com/2013/12/31/the-best-of-times2013-in-pictures-and-words
A fold in the ordinary. The day the music died. Hurtle, furtively →. December 31, 2013 · 10:50 pm. The best of times–2013 in pictures and words. The reflection-on-the-waning year blog post, how I succumb to your call! I haven’t put fingers to keyboard here since August 16, so it’s about damn time I sat down and wrote. I feel a New Year’s resolution coming on. We all had major accomplishments and some challenges. Everyone grew in one way or another. Ben grew about 6 inches:. There was much more of 2013 in...

Best December Ever…. | a fold in the ordinary
https://foldintheordinary.wordpress.com/2014/12/17/best-december-ever
A fold in the ordinary. Christmas story →. December 17, 2014 · 10:18 pm. Best December Ever…. My schedule prevents me from committing to classes I want to take (took 2 sessions of a Portuguese class a couple of years ago and had to drop it), exercise programs and volunteer commitments. I have never been the room Mom or team coach, leaving that sort of thing to Lou over the years. We assume I am not available for something, and work backwards. More than that, I have scheduled some time with myself to full...

Our Old School | a fold in the ordinary
https://foldintheordinary.wordpress.com/2013/04/22/our-old-school
A fold in the ordinary. What it comes down to. Two weeks →. April 22, 2013 · 12:00 pm. Last spring we decided to preserve the delightful relationship that we enjoy with our oldest son by hiring a college consultant. She visited our home last June, and we sat on the screened porch while she described her methodology and process. She then asked Danny a series of questions about the characteristics of the perfect school for him. Big or small? To apply to William and Mary? Well 29 years of miserable memories...

Cat lady | a fold in the ordinary

A fold in the ordinary. Farewell 2014 and welcome to the New Year. And so it is 2016 →. January 12, 2015 · 8:36 pm. I, on the other hand, felt no absence of furry friends as a child or young adult. Moving dorms and apartments regularly in the decade after leaving home for college it never occurred to me to have a pet. Plus, dogs smell. Cats are unfriendly. Then I met a guy. My new boyfriend had a black and white tuxedo cat named Minou. I conceded that I would. Those cats are almost thirteen. Our olde...

Christmas story | a fold in the ordinary
https://foldintheordinary.wordpress.com/2014/12/23/christmas-story
A fold in the ordinary. Best December Ever…. Farewell 2014 and welcome to the New Year →. December 23, 2014 · 8:56 pm. Christmas Eve was definitely the most magical day of the year when I was young. I still love December 24. Now we’re all grown up. I have hated Christmas in recent years. I know, super depressing. If only we could skip Christmas Day, and leave all in anticipation. If only June followed December, not January. If only it weren’t so dark. This year feels a little magical again. Time to r...

Two weeks | a fold in the ordinary
https://foldintheordinary.wordpress.com/2013/08/09/two-weeks
A fold in the ordinary. The day the music died →. August 9, 2013 · 5:23 pm. To loft the beds? How big should the carpet remnant be? Can you put nails in the walls to hang your framed photographs? Will I get all my classes (and what if I don’t)? Should I take inorganic or organic chemistry first? Will I be compatible with my roommate? Will I like it there? I know he is ready. I am sure I’m not ready at all. The battle between happy and sad in my heart is giving me a huge headache. Enter your comment here.

A fold in the ordinary. The best of times–2013 in pictures and words. Best December Ever…. →. July 23, 2014 · 8:06 pm. I find myself thinking of interesting words at the weirdest times. I’ve been cycling a ton this summer and the other day, flying down a hill at 20 mph I thought, I am. I must ask Ben if he knows what hurtle means! This all made me curious about vocabulary.

Farewell 2014 and welcome to the New Year | a fold in the ordinary

A fold in the ordinary. Cat lady →. January 1, 2015 · 12:01 am. Farewell 2014 and welcome to the New Year. It’s here, the very last day of 2014. The sand runs quickly through the hour glass now, and I’m feeling nothing. If I am not careful, it will pass me right by. I really appreciated my end of year post last year upon re-reading. I always think I’ll remember small and big things that happen, but the more time that goes by, the less of anything I retain. Danny continued to do very well at William and M...
