Rooting About, Becoming Rooted. Rootsome.: July 2011
http://rootsome.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 11, 2011. The sun's in overdrive. Blazing, blasting, relentless. I water my vegetables in our little plot at the new community garden, but my front yard plants are suffering with only their mulch to save them. There only seems to be time to water one thing, and I choose the veggies, dreaming of tomatoes and eggplants and squash that are only now beginning to form, slowly and reluctantly under this oppressive heat. I'm stumped, and failing on this point.). Spiritual growth, depth, honesty?

Rooting About, Becoming Rooted. Rootsome.: Sacred trust.
http://rootsome.blogspot.com/2013/02/sacred-trust.html
Tuesday, February 26, 2013. I kept him out too late last night, visiting with friends while I let him play games on my phone. His red eyes drooped by the time I scooped him into his booster seat for the quick ride home. "Thanks, mama," he said, already leaning his head against the side of the seat. He barely woke up to be carried to bed once we were home. Sorry, buddy. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Adventures, there are other places for that.

Rooting About, Becoming Rooted. Rootsome.: A list of good things.
http://rootsome.blogspot.com/2012/08/a-list-of-good-things.html
A list of good things. Friday, June 29, 2012. May I list a few things I enjoy about myself, please? A day or two ago, I could not think of a single thing that made me a useful part of my family. (That sounds awful. It felt awful, in that moment. I'm sure you've had them yourself. Let's leave it there for now.). Tonight, though, I can think of a few. and I'd like to take the luxury of pondering them for a moment while the crickets sing and the dog snores at my feet. Wheee) Also, two nights for free at a h...

Rooting About, Becoming Rooted. Rootsome.: Rain and mutinae in the midst of the night.
http://rootsome.blogspot.com/2012/08/rain-and-mutinae-in-midst-of-night.html
Rain and mutinae in the midst of the night. Wednesday, August 01, 2012. The chalk sticks the kids left outside on the sidewalk may be ruined. I guess there's a lesson in that, so I won't scuttle out there in the downpour trying to find them. (I warned them to pick them up today but I think we all got distracted.). My Kindle's MIA after this week's craziness. I have no idea where I put it. Last saw it in the passenger's seat of the car, which worries me. Did someone snatch it? The chalk will recover, and ...

Rooting About, Becoming Rooted. Rootsome.: Latest obsession.
http://rootsome.blogspot.com/2013/01/latest-obsession.html
Thursday, January 03, 2013. I have a private obsession. Lately at night, after the rest of my family goes to sleep (for my husband has turned into an early bird, and my tendencies are so "night owl" that I almost hoot and hack up pellets. I get something hot to drink, throw the blanket over the grateful dog, and settle in for at least two (but sometimes four) rounds of my addiction. Can Amber keep it together long enough to get into college? Ive watched a couple of episodes of Parenthood, long ago. I...

Rooting About, Becoming Rooted. Rootsome.: Bated breath.
http://rootsome.blogspot.com/2011/08/bated-breath.html
Sunday, August 07, 2011. Hating being told to sit still for a picture. 2009. I think we nearly lost our little dog this afternoon. Then, forty minutes later, her head straightened, and a minute or two later, she shakily got to her feet and tottered off for a drink. Aaron watched in amazement. Hanging out with Gracie at the grandparents'. 2008? There could be more of these, one after another. There could never be another. We really have no idea. Has she had them before, when we were gone?

Rooting About, Becoming Rooted. Rootsome.: April 2012
http://rootsome.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
A smattering of updates. Monday, April 23, 2012. I went last week with 9000 other women to receive the Word through a woman. I'm still chewing on her words, thinking about what God would have me learn. One thing: a spiritual life lived alone, without connection to others, will on some level lack maturity. I'm prone to this and it rings like a warning bell in my head. Repeatedly and pondering this good ol' boy's. Rain gutter grow system. But until then, a few more weeks of tracking school hours and marchi...
