Finding My Way...: December 2013
http://the-things-we-carry.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 09, 2013. Making Way for Brighter Days. These past months have been a dark, dark time. For no particular reason, I expected 2013 to be a good year. My health is good. That was the best part of 2013. Well, I'm thinking that I'm reading to burn 2013 to the ground. A big bonfire on New Year's Eve, just blow this year away and send the ashes far, far away. I get so melodramatic sometimes. I don't know what smithereens really are, but that's what 2013 will be when it's over. Links to this post.

Four Crazy Sisters: Crickets
http://fourcrazysisters.blogspot.com/2014/09/crickets.html
Wednesday, September 10, 2014. It's pretty silent around here these days.here's to a little free time and being able to write a sentence or two. Labels: Not Worth a Label. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Everyone needs a place to put the crazy in their life. For us, this is that place. I love my sisters; they're great. That doesn't mean a single one of us should be allowed out in society. Quite the contrary.". What's to know about us? Actually, I pretend not to be related to them.".

Four Crazy Sisters: Daily Notes on Fasting
http://fourcrazysisters.blogspot.com/2012/09/daily-notes-on-fasting.html
Monday, September 03, 2012. Daily Notes on Fasting. Sorry for the delay! I meant to post this shortly after the last post, but life always gets in the way. Now this seems like ages ago, but here it is:. Then what do you do for the fast? So that’s it. For 8 whole days. I’ll talk later about easing out of the fast, but here is my daily account of what it was like to fast. First work day on the fast! By afternoon, the annoyances of work distracted me enough that I didn’t even have time to think about ...

Finding My Way...: Description
http://the-things-we-carry.blogspot.com/2015/05/description.html
Sunday, May 31, 2015. I have no idea where this quote came from originally, but I've had it tucked in a notes folder since 2013 and I remember reading it and thinking, "That's me.". There was something dark below her surface and it kept her from being soft.". Looking at it now, I think it's still true, but maybe with a twist.there is something dark below my surface, but it keeps my surface hard. Labels: Working On Me. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Finding My Way...: End of Summer
http://the-things-we-carry.blogspot.com/2014/08/end-of-summer.html
Sunday, August 17, 2014. I don't know how it is that August is more than half over and my kiddo goes back to school this week! That little one is heading off to fourth grade this year and I can't even wrap my head around it. My sweet baby girl will always be my baby girl, but she's so much of a young lady now.growing and changing in ways I don't feel prepared for, "tween" emotions definitely making an appearance, leaving behind so many things of childhood in favor of more grown up things. Job interviews ...

Finding My Way...: Breakfast
http://the-things-we-carry.blogspot.com/2014/09/breakfast.html
Tuesday, September 02, 2014. Kiddo had a hard time getting up today after the long holiday weekend. She turned off her alarm and was just a bundle of warmth and softness as she hugged me, slightly tearful. Oh, how sweet she still is when her little-girl side peeks out. Smoothing her wild hair, I kissed her forehead and asked her what she wanted for breakfast. When kiddo saw that she had eggs, pancakes, AND ice-cream, her whole face lit up. Because somewhere down the road.twenty or thirty years from n...

Daily Dose of Ordinary: This Person I've Become
http://dailydoseofordinary.blogspot.com/2012/08/this-person-ive-become.html
Sunday, August 19, 2012. This Person I've Become. My grandfather would have been 90 today. I wonder sometimes what he would think about this person I've become. He hardly could have guessed when I was so small what I might have grown into. Would he be proud regardless? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Blank Sheet of Paper. Do You Miss Me, Miss Misery?

Finding My Way...: True Story: A Forty Watt Lesson
http://the-things-we-carry.blogspot.com/2013/05/true-story-forty-watt-lesson.html
Saturday, May 04, 2013. True Story: A Forty Watt Lesson. I dropped a light bulb tonight. This isn’t necessarily unusual for me, especially when considering how awkwardly clumsy I am in almost every area of my life. It was a GE 40 watt soft light. A regular old bulb, not a fancy, energy efficient one. I admit, I’m polluting the world with my fondness for regular bulbs. I dropped the bulb when attempting to put it into the light fixture over the kitchen sink. I looked at it and at first glance, it was whole.
